Seems to me that was over only a 1% tax too. Geez, where are we at now..heading towards 50% (in fact I think some are already there) by the time you figure sales taxes, death taxes, property taxes, etc. Perhaps I am naive, but that seems to me closer to slavery than to free people-Sweet Liberty.

No kidding. I thought it was ridiculous when Bush was up there explaining to the American People that the Al Queida Terrorists hate us because of our freedom. My father laughed about that one. He said, "what, where you're taxed into the ground". I agree. Most of our freedoms are gone. The only thing they can't take away from us is our minds, and they have tried to legislate that through their "hate crime" legislation talks.

Call first then follow it up with e-mail and faxes.

Oh and KEEP ON CALLING. They track the numbers of calls on issues. I have seen cases where representatives have changed their positions overnight on issues because of the volume of calls they have received. Remember, these people are up for reelection IN A FEW MONTHS. Make them FEEL THE HEAT.

Blue River, the media, the vast majority, are moral cowards. They're more concerned about living their million dollar lifestyles as opposed to helping the country survive for their grandchildren to see. To them, they feel that they cannot upset anyone with politically incorrect statement, because it may cause them their job and lifestyle.

They're WORTHLESS on the issue. Rush, Sean Hannity, etc. The only talkshow hosts that I have heard say anything are Terry Anderson and Michael Savage. I was listening to Sean Hannity a couple of days ago, and his primary focus is on the Democrats and Tom Daschle. I thought, who cares! Our nation is about to commit national suicide, and this guy is wasting valuable airtime talking about insignificant things. I don't get it.

"Nice post VA Alvagado 666."

And how appropriate too, that he/she is praising the other troll.

"They" care as much for their kin as anyone.
Don't demonize the rich.
That's a liberal staple.

At the sake of the country, especially when it's based in the Constitution and the Rule of Law? I don't think so.

"Standard liberal tactic when you've no logical arguments left"

When did either of them have a logical argument to begin with?

"He also has a thing about apples, if you check earlier in this thread. Reminds me of the Monty Python skit, with the Army drill instructor teaching the recruits how to defend themselves against an assailant wielding a bannana, strawberry, etc., and how the drill instructor (John Cleese) would get a facial twitch every time he said "fresh fruit".

ROTFLMBO!!! He does seem to be rather fixated doesn't he? Sad really. He only knows one tune and the only words he can find are about fresh fruit and vegetables.

"A lot of people on this post seem to think the only problem with immigration is the "illegal" immigration "

That's because this bill deals with legitimizing millions of illegal immigrants.

The stupidity of the people on the immigration rants is beyond contempt.

Speaking of stupidity, this is an illegal immigration rant. Why couldn't you tell?

Does the rule of law mean anything to you?

Or are you more impressed by your preening and your ad hominems?

Arne, apparently you're the only racist. For one, you're a vile, filthy-mouthed individual. This is a sign of no debate. In fact, this is your only post. Thus, you have no point.

Facts are facts, and they indicate that illegal immigration is a federal crime, that it is costing the taxpayers money, that an amnesty will destroy America culturally, economically, socially, and it will bring in big-government like never before. We have trends, as well as history, to reveal to us what America's history holds when tyranny becomes accepted by government officials.
