We will look fondly back on GWB's and Chertoff's 'tough' border plans when we get a new prez in Jan. 09.

If McCain would keep his mouth shut he would win this thing in a landslide.

Pissant...THIS is why it is IMPERATIVE that we elect those on a more local level that will do our true will. We can win our country back. We showed them we meant business before, and we can do it again.

Let's Roll!

The need for workers from outside the nation is likely to increase as the "bubble" of the baby boom generation passes into retirement and there are fewer available American workers to replace them.

The "bubble" of the boomers is generally skilled labor.

Immigrants from Mexico are generally unskilled and illiterate.

They're gonna fill in for us?

That'll be the day.

Sen. John McCain said Monday the tenor of the immigration debate has hurt the way Hispanic voters view the Republican Party. "I believe the majority of Hispanics share our view that the border must be secured, and the border must be secured first," McCain said in Phoenix, Arizona. "But they also want us to have an attitude which I think most Americans do, that these are God's children and they must be taken care of." The senator from Arizona used Cinco de Mayo as a launching pad for a new Spanish-language Web site on Monday, and he emphasized his stance...

McCain is what we get when people vote out of fear. First it’s get behind Rudy because he can win. Then it’s Mitt. We need to use our heads next time and start grooming a real candidate for 2012. Especially if McCain wins ‘08 and wants a second term.

We were pleased to see that McCain continues to believe, as we do, that immigration and border security are federal issues and not state issues.

They are not issues they are responsibilities. The Federal government is constitutionally obligated to establish immigration law, and punish/deport the lawbreakers.

McCain says he got the message; Border enforcement first, but after that, let everybody and all their kin in.

In fact, immigration is a key part of any discussion on the economy because foreign workers, both legal and illegal, are a key component of the country’s economic climate. The need for workers from outside the nation is likely to increase as the “bubble” of the baby boom generation passes into retirement and there are fewer available American workers to replace them.

you know you’re in the presence of a bimbo eruption when this kind of thing is said.

the boomers do the kinds of jobs that aren’t replaceable by illegals.

I just watched a piece on the Phoenix news about a bunch of drunken “immigrants” who put Sheriff Arpaio’s face complete with a Sheriff’s badge on a bunch of pinatas filled with tooth rot and then had their kids beating on them. I guess they were trying to teach their offspring that if you beat a policeman with a stick, you get candy. Those kids are going to make some great “americans.” The “adults” there said that Arpaio is a “racist” for arresting people who are in this country illegally. Happy Sinko da Mayo.

Of course he does, he is the Manchurian candidate. There is a reason why the NY Times endorsed him, why liberals voted for him in open primaries, and why the MSM loves him. The reason is that he is a freaking liberal with ties to Soros!

Good grief, the people here on FR these days absolutely amaze me.

It is a little surprising that McCain is willing to step back into the buzz saw of the immigration debate...

Why would it be surprising considering the things he said about those who opposed him last summer? Only an idiot would believe he really "saw the light" about amnesty after he got his ass handed to him. McCain still knows that he knows best and you know he wants revenge too.

If he stuck to what he just said here, he’d be fine — the number of people who want to shut down temporary worker programs, while vocal, is small.

The problem isn’t tracking legal immigrants, or guest worker programs, but letting illegal immigrants stay here and get ahead of the line for citizenship over those who are waiting and obeying the law.
