In the words of the industry-- "We'll keep a light on for you."
No BLANKET AMNESTY. Don't subsidize the people who brought you illegal immigration.
Good Lord! I haven't been called that in years!
Do we know one another?
Well,it's nice to know that at least YOU understand this bill, and can see that this isn't a blanket amnesty like the rest claim that it is.
Well heck -- you're Luis Gonzo-alez, FReeper, and I'm F16Fighter, FReeper...Ain't that enough? ;-)
Think about what you are saying, if Gore won we would all be facing East every sunrise.
John, David is on his way home, he spent the past week at Walter Reed Army Hospitable, while where he received his Purple Heart and was visited by Dole, Rummy, and the witch of NY.
"It's not amnesty...."
Will any of these illegal immigrants be deported? No. It's amnesty by another name.
The left well understands the game of semantics (which is all that Political Correctness is); Bush takes his queues from the neo-cons and their ilk, many of whom are former Troskeyites. They well know the art of snowing the sheeple through the art of changing names.
The sheeple don't like "amnesty"? Call it a guest worker program, or an application for temporary vistor's visa (it will be permanent in fact, not temporary, and therefore a de facto amnesty, but the sheeple are too stupid to realize that and connect the dots).
It's the same old game. Don't like property seizure and government funded housing? Call it "urban renewal". Don't like confiscatory taxation? Call it a "progressive income tax". Don't like being bullied by leftist goons? Call it "political correctness". When people wise up to that, call it "hate speech" and "hate crime" laws; designed to enforce "tolerance" and "diversity". Don't like abortion? Call it "choice". Don't like illegal aliens? Call them "undocumented workers". Don't like racial quotas? Call it hiring or admittance "goals" or "objectives".
Bottom line: if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it's a duck. Bush's pet project here is really "amnesty" whatever name that Bush and his flacks here and in Washington choose to call it. "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet..." (or in this case, foul).

Is that a fact?
"Right, pinkie. And when your doctor is giving you a prostate exam and you suddenly notice that both his hands are on your shoulders, then that's bound to be his finger in your butt because he says so, right?"

"You're getting your historical "facts" on Reagan from the same sources you used to write that ridiculous treatise on how everything wrong with the US government is historically the fault of everyone except the GOP. Pitiful."

"Drop this snide tone of yours about the left fooling everyone but you, Luis. I don't buy it and neither does anyone else with two brain cells to rub together. That's your cue to become furious and start your usual round of profane responses. Go for it."

Perhaps you should change your handle to TwoFaced...

I like discussion and debate, but some folks got only their own viewpoint and everything else is an illusion to them. You are one of those folks. C-ya around. Plenty of smart people on freeps to talk to.

After everything we've all seen and heard, during 8 years of Clinton, you'd think it would be harder for a politician to con us this way. Sadly, it seems that it's as easy as it ever was.
And to Hell with Our Beloved FRaternal Republic's Founding Law?
To Hell with US??!!
Who is this moron?
One-term George the Second?
