[history]
Despite his home state's often-combative relationship with Mexico, a U.S. senator from Texas is pushing hard for greater rights for millions of Mexicans living and working illegally in the United States.
Speaking in Mexico City on Friday, Republican John Cornyn said it was "past time" for his colleagues in Congress to consider legislation making some form of guest-worker program a reality.

Yeah, this plan will work. Say Goodnight Cornyn.

Both political parties are enemies of the people of the United States. They need to be dealt with, soon............

You mean those dead eyed vacant smiling swine in DC with the American flag pins on their lapels? Maybe when the country is totally overwhelmed they can sing on the Capitol steps again.

Perhaps the recall of Davis is a step in the right direction.

Are you a registered member of either party? If so, change. Go independent or un-affiliated. When the numbers drop so low, they will no longer have an automatic slot on the ballot. Trust me on this though, if GW tries to legalize the illegals, he will reap the whirlwind.

That wasn't the implication I got from "dealt with and ,soon"

My quote... They need to be dealt with, soon............
Is stating that we are in grave danger if we as a people do not recognize that our so called leaders are actually not looking out for our interests but their own.

Yeah, this plan will work. Say Goodnight Cornyn. It never ends does it? They just keep coming and coming with this, totally oblivious to what the American people are demanding. You have to suspect there's payoffs going on somewhere, what else are we supposed to think?

I used to laugh at the "globalist conspiracy" types, now I'm one of them, LOL. I'm not at the end of my rope though, we have to win!

I'm not at the end of my rope though, we have to win! A push for a North American union is definitely part of the long range plan of quite a few I think, including a common currency and open borders similar to the European Union. There's too much resistance to that idea at the moment, so the "guest worker" concept can gradually bring it to that conclusion.
That's how I see it anyway, and agree with you, we have to win. I prefer to keep this the United States.
To: Brian S
Cornyn said his plan was designed to allow migrants to live and work in the United States for a few years and then return home.
Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, now is he? What a joke. I guess Texas looks at California and gets jealous.

Looks like the USA would have to bow down to the wishes of 25 little dumpy countries. Dick Cheney and the "Project for a New American Century" is pretty creepy too.
