Of course McCain is pro-amnesty. He agrees with Obama on everything but the war. What a pity.

Would ANYONE here be surprised if he was?

[McCain] agrees with Obama on everything but the war.

Obama's a big fan of partial-birth abortion; McCain is against it. That's a significant difference.

As I stated before, stand down McCain and let a man get elected who has the best interests of his country at heart.

It is probably telling, that Barack Mohammed (since we are no longer to refer to his given middle name) Obama, Jr., the charismatic, messianic Magic Negro, is NOT plotting any strategy with the Hispanic action committees, for or about the amnesty programs that have been offered in the US Congress.

Doesn’t have to. Obama-Osama will get as much of the Hispanic vote as he needs in November.

Who do you have in mind?

They are not secret. They are on his schedule, and people are attending them and reporting about them.

And he’s not saying anything in the meetings that he hasn’t said publicly.

Now, it does seem he has a different emphasis in the meetings, but that in itself isn’t so surprising.

It would be helpful to people who are trying their best not to be repulsed in this election if McCain would just make clear exactly what he wants to accomplish regarding immigration.

I believe we need comprehensive reform (I hate that the term has become synonymous with evil). The legal immigration system is broken. People come in and never leave, we don’t track them, some industries just pay bribes and get all the foreign workers they want, in other cases there’s no way to get workers legally.

The legal failure spawns illegal immigration, which shuts out good immigrants from countries other than South America. Some people have been here illegally for so long they have pretty much become fixtures in the local economies, and the few who are stupid enough to try to fix their status are the only ones who get thrown out.

We need to get sound immigration policy WITHOUT giving away the store to all the recent illegal immigrants. We need to fashion guest worker programs that have guarantees that people will go home, and that preclude citizenship.

I doubt McCain is going to help us much. I KNOW Obama won’t. And I also know that Obama’s replacement will be pro-illegal. What I HOPE is that McCain’s replacement will be a good anti-illegal-immigrant Republican Conservative. One more to stop whatever McCain might want to force down our throats.

I do believe that McCain will have no more influence on congress in this regard than Bush did. And that in any case, there is NO vote for President that will make it any LESS likely that amnesty will be pushed.

I know McCain is pro-amnesty. What I can’t figure out is why, and why he is working so hard to achieve it.

Is it just about getting the Hispanic vote, or does he, in his benighted idiocy, have a reason (however lame) for why he thinks amnesty is good for America? If so, what is his reasoning?

The good news is Obambi probably has been lying to his base about the war .

How about Thompson stepping back up, or Tancredo?

This can only happen if this twit steps down.

I’m against abortion too, but in McCain’s case I’d have made an exception.

Actually, you can count on one hand the things that McCain and Obama agree on -- and that only if you use a very loose definition of "agree", essentially saying that if they both are to the left of conservative, then they "agree".

  1. Extending Bush Tax Cuts
  2. Surrender in Iraq
  3. Court ruling on Habeus Corpus
  4. Offshore Oil Drilling
  5. Gay Marriage
  6. Gun Rights
  7. Abortion
  8. Nationalized Health Care
  9. Free Trade
  10. Legislative Earmarks
  11. Monitoring Terrorist Communication
  12. Support for the Military
  13. Judicial appointments
  14. State's Rights
  15. FISA immunity for Companies that cooperate with us.

There are others. McCain is wrong on more items than Bush was, but he is still right about a majority of the issues, and vastly more right than Obama on a host of important issues.
