Congress can stop it. Bush can stop it. But they don't. They not only allow this invasion, they encourage it. I will not vote for any politician who refuses to protect our borders as the Constitution MANDATES. Bush is going to lose alot of votes and I won't cry if he's not re-elected. Any candidate who doesn't honor his oath to the Constitution isn't worth voting for.
Advocates say the cards help immigrants access basic functions of daily life such as obtaining driver's licenses and opening bank accounts. They also note that the card serves a law enforcement purpose, allowing police to identify people who otherwise might travel without identification.
Well, if this is the case, the Republic of Panama should demand equal treatment as well as other countries that required their citizens to carry a type of metricula. In Panama, it goes by a different name (cédula), but it’s the same thing. By law, every Panamanian citizen 18 and over must carry this ID on his/her person which includes a photo, blood type, fingerprint, and one’s national ID number which is equivalent to the U.S. social security number. One needs it to transact any and all kinds of businesses here such as banking, cashing checks, applying for utilities, telephones, purchasing property, applying for a driver’s license, voting, and much, much more. Also, the cédula must accompany a credit card transaction. Why just the Mexicans?
This is a White House charade.
The purpose of the Mexican matricula consular cards is to ID Illegals, and President Bush can not help but be aware of the fact that more than a million of them have been issued. Yet he has yet to speak against them. The President's silence can only only be interpreted as tacit support of giving IDs to Illegals.
But if the Mexican IDs for Illegals are no good (and heck, they're only for Mexican Illegals anyway), what's the solution?
Answer: give American IDs to the Illegal Aliens.
This whole story is a dog and pony act to justify the Amensty that's coming soon from President Bush.
Probably. Don't forget, one of Tom Ridges' highest priorities after 9/11 was to assure that hazardous NAFTA Trucks weren't impeded from accessing U.S. Highways by something so artificial, antiquated and inefficient as a national border.
This is the only conclusion I can reach as well. My question is, what possible benefit does this provide for Bush and the GOP? The net result will be millions of additional Democrat votes.
Ther is a section for "comments" in which I stated that I expected the President to address the border issue before I could fully support him.
If you don't vote, or vote for a fringe candidate, that only costs one vote. If you get really, really angry and vote for the opposition, that means they'll have to get two votes to compensate.
That's the only threat that will stop this nonsense. It seems like the administration thinks it can win without those who support minimal government, the borders, an end to illegals given a free ride, jobs being lost by citizens, a cut in spending and programs, and the PBA ammendment. If some Democrat picks up on any of these issues, probably two or three of them, it should garner a lot of those stay-at-home votes. Don't forget, we can bring some Dem candidate(s) on board, as there isn't a meaningful Republican primary.
Yep. Makes me sleep better at night knowing the likes of Tom Ridge heads up our nations security agencies.
