The same logic should apply to any immigrant ancestors - if they'd "had guts", they'd have fixed the problems where they came from instead of coming here, according to you.

Oh Lord!!!!!! Let me see if I can make it clear for you. I am NOT referring to ancestors, I am not referring to ancient history, I am not referring to 1890...LOL! OK?

Do you understand this? What my or your ancestors did does not matter a lick now. It's 2003, not 1890.

I understand, people that think open borders, and millions that are CURRENTLY entering our country illegal, use the "Oh what about your ancestors" argument.

I find it strange, that I suggest that others stay put in their own countries and fight for their own freedom, stand fast and fight their little tin horn dictators, instead of jumping on freaking boats and rafts and running away.

How many millions are you will to take in? 25 million more? 50 million more? 100 million more?

Why are several of you so against the suggestion that people in other countries make their own countries right, fight for their own freedoms, instead of waiting for Americans to spill our blood for them or taking the easy way out and jumping on boats. I am sick of that sh*t, and I'm a veteran.

They need to take a stand, as we have been flooded with people, legal, including millions of illegals for the past 20 years. Jumping in boats and running is pretty much taking the quick easy way out, compared to taking out a dictator, and overthrowinig a brutal government by any means necessary.

UNLESS....it comes to the Founding Fathers, correct?

THOSE ancestors you pay attention to...and revere, correct?

At least I HOPE you do.

I didn't say what my opinion was on that. I was simply pointing out an apparent contradiction in your statements.

I guess it was okay for people to come to the United States then, but we need to put up the "No Vacancy" sign now?

And to get back to the point of this thread, if George Bush is unwilling to put up the No Vacancy sign and stick to it, you'd be unwilling to help re-elect him?
