"We're up to 5 defenders of the Bush immigration program, and 77 who are irate. The fumin' 77 of the fightin' right are:"
Good Method! It also gets obvious who it is that do the personal attacks when you I.D. the main kissups :-)

and even the trash in the streets are all a preview of the coming attractions of 21st-century America. Exactly. In the 1970s, Houston's bus stops were clean. There was not any litter or garbage lying on the ground.
Well, thanks to unchecked immigration, the clientele on Houston buses is different and the bus stops are now a complete pig sty.

The ratio of 77 irate posters to 5 defenders of illegal aliens (boo hoo) is about right for the whole country in general. Last time I saw the polls 80+ of the population are against amnesties and want the border closed. People all over country reading this thread agree with us, and Bush and co. can count on paying a political price for this sellout. Like I said in a previous post, I want to support him, but not as long as he's more worried about illegal aliens than the people he's elected to serve. That's Americans. Remember us Mr Bush?

Just because we've supported the President on everything else on his agenda doesn't mean we have to support him where he's wrong. And he's definitely wrong in pushing for an amnesty for illegals. As for the politics of it --- he loses more votes from the base than he'd gain from newly naturalized Latinos, most of them who'd never vote for him any way. And if those who ARE citizens aren't its cause they don't like the GOP's pandering to illegals any more than the rest of Americans do. A little news flash for the President and his political guru Karl Rove: they backed Dick Riordan here in California and Riordan ran on a platform of more government services for illegal aliens. He lost by a thumping double digit margin. Its about time the White House wake up!
To: goldstategop
Only more enforcement of our immigration laws will.Unfortunately, Congress and the White House do not want the INS to enforce the Immigration Laws. I have been sitting here for the last six months and Congress and the White House has not passed one new law that would help INS enforce the INA (Immigration & Nationality Act), nor have they pressured the INS Management to let the Enforcement Branch do it job under the current law.
I see no light at the end of this very dark tunnel. Nothing will be done to protect this countries borders.

"...when you I.D. the main kissups :-)..." Engaging in a little rino/cino profiling? How intolerant! There should be a law! :>)

Now this thread has gone from the sublime to the ridiculous.
First of all have you ever lived in Houston. Since your screen name suggests you live in Minnieapolis, MN. I highly doubt it.
I actually visited your part of the country. I spent my first year of college at the Univeristy of Wisconsin-Madison, which was filled with Minnesooootans who got "reciprocity"(i.e they got Minnesota tuition rates for attending college in Madison, party city.).
My roommate was from Minnetonka and we went up there for the UW-Minn. football game at the "Hubert Humphrey Dome(Hump Dome) and I met a lady who was complaining about the Hmong(Laotian boat people) who settled in Minnesota.
Have the Hmong ruined Minneapolis?

"I'll have to keep looking for a party I can live with" The American Independent party is conservative and takes a strong stance against illegal immigration.
To: goldstategop
But everything he does from here on out will be clouded by what he's doing with the illegal immigration issue. Even if his intentions are well meaning, he's losing a great deal of respect. People don't want this, the reasons are obvious. How can you expect every American citizen to respect laws they make in Washington when they reward lawbreakers everytime they turn around? They are making a mockery of the rule of law. Nothing Bush says will be taken seriously, even when he's right.

Not that I can tell. We have two Senators that have done a good job of that all on their own.
But the Hmong are legal immigrants and not queue jumpers.

Updated count. 5 defenders of the Bush immigration policy. 79 who are fed up. Among the 79 you can count in: dougherty & goldstategop Welcome dougherty and goldstategop!
And, in the spirit of political correctness:
Bievenidos dougherty and goldstategop!:o))

Thanks. I'll check them out.

I see no light at the end of this very dark tunnel. Nothing will be done to protect this countries borders. Sad to say but I think you are correct. I am totally disillusioned by what is going on. A major vote is going to occur in the Congress on Tuesday and not one mention of it is in any of the papers. Most people are completely in the dark about what is happening to this country. I always voted for Republicans because I thought Democrats were destroying this country. Now I am convinced that Republicans have been equally destructive so I will vote for no one next time out.

Count me in as one more that's fed up with this whole charade. Bush will certainly lose to Hillary or Edwards if he pursues this bull$hit program.
To: Vallandigham
Bttt! Make that list, check it twice...

Dan Stein, executive director of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).
FAIR is a well known immigrant hate group. however, what I was showing you is that the states can only get involved in immigration to the extent the feds allow them because the consitition gives that duty to the feds. What I cited you was the federal statute that allows that to happen.
