Who the frick CARES if they are going to vote Republican or not???? Do they want to uphold our constitution? Do they want to promote freedom and enterprise and those ideals that the Founding Fathers fought for? THAT IS ALL THAT SHOULD MATTER. And if they don’t support freedom and the US Constitution, they should be repudiated as voters and people who are occupying this country. Im tired of people worrying about whether or not they “like” someone. Are you for America or against it? If youre for it, SHOW IT. If not, get the hell out of my country!

Liz, I believe you and I are basically on the same page when it comes to illegal immigration. It’s wrong. We need to end it. We need to repatriate people to their nation of origin, through self-repatriation or by forced repatriation.

Where we seem to be having an impasse, is the idea that criminal Hispanics far outnumber the fine decent Hispanics.

That isn’t true.

We do have a massive number of illegal alien Hispanics here now, and they are exploiting the goods and services the federal government has chosen to give away to them. And while the crossing was illegal, the taking of the services is not. It’s our fault for giving it to them.

Even out of the illegal Hispanics who are here, all but a few ARE NOT killing people, committing rape, child molestations, grand theft, robberies, home invasions, or participating in gangs.

We cannot make wild comments about a group of people that for the most part only apply to a segment that are idiots.

Does every crime committed by an illegal alien on U.S. soil rest on the hands of those who have enabled illegal immigration? Absolutely. Is every crime committed by them, a crime that shouldn’t have been committed? Absolutely.

One murder by illegal immigrants is a tragedy. Hundreds if not thousands have been committed. It’s time for them to go, but let’s not denigrate folks who are here illegally, but are not committing other crimes.

The criminals, yes. Our government for it’s complicity, yes. Even every illegal alien for their illegal entry, yes. Across the board charges of criminality? That charge is not sustainable.

And yes, we know who they are.

I think to minimize this threat from illegals b/c of a few legal Hispanics is a serious mistake.

The legal Hispanics need to understand they are at risk b/c illegals are driven by a pathological Third World nationalism and the savage need to conquer gringos.

Illegals will demand legal Hispanics unite with them.......or else.

I was thinking apathy, as in how the Mexican hispanics are too apathetic and demoralized to do anything about their own country. If apathy rises in these groups, the Dem’s lose their power.

The problem isn’t with Americans of Spanish or even Black ancestry.

The problem is with the GOP leadership and many GOP politicians.

BASCIALLY they don’t believe in the product they are selling.

Which makes them poor salesmen.

We have the superior product, just a bunch of idiots doing a bad job marketing it.

How so? They still vote for more free stuff. They’re too apathetic to DO anything, but they’ll still demand the free stuff

” These articles are condescending and lack any vestige of rational thought based on what conservatism stands for.

GW promised hispanics a “new America” where “spanish could on heard every corner” and he STILL only got about 50% of the vaunted hispanic vote. It’s time for the GOP to stop thinking they can pander their way into leadership and simply find a way to lead.”

An “A” grade on the rant.

Way back when the government began it’s “Entitlement” programs we couldn’t afford it so they borrowed trillions against us and our future to keep it going. Now it has broken the bank and everyone’s future both the “entitled” and ours.

What is going to happen when the welfare payments stop? What happens when the “entitled” cannot feed or house their children?
