You sound like someone who did not vote for Bush. Do you not remember Bush stating that he wanted the republcan party for all the people--not just the lily white, yacht groupies. If you are a republican vs a Bush basher, you are giving the republicans a bad name. Remember Pete Wilson. The Hispanics voted for the republicans til Pete started going after them. Too bad, the democrats are enjoying all those electoral votes.

I am sure you have the data to back up that claim. Mind sharing it with us?

You probably are one of those employers who doesn't pay well and expects a whole lot. Bunch of garbage you are saying. I am one of them and I have seen them work and the mexican immigrants that I have seen and worked with are very hard workers. You must be a bummer for a boss if you can't get people to work for you. Do you speak any language other than English?

Well, I have no facts but I do know history. Republicans got voted out after Pete Wilson's folly regarding the hispanic. Nope, I have no numbers but I do know the history been there and seen that.

Too bad. Take it up with WRhine and the Moderator.

Please stop the personal attacks or there will be consequences.

Don't threaten me!

What's relevant here is that an illegal alien has been granted the option of becoming a citizen. Your use of semantics won't change that fact!

It's not semantics, it's simply the truth. There is no amnesty!

Sir, if you continue, it wont be neccesary, the Moderator will take it up with you. That goes for WHRine as well, if you feel he has attacked you.

However, this issue, like any other, can be debated without resorting to crude terms. No one has to agree with anyone elses point of view, but personal attacks and vulgar language are not necessary to making a point.

Don't threaten me!

No one is threatening you. You are simply being politely informed of the rules. It is your choice to obey them or ignore them and as was said before, should you choose to continue to ingore them, there will be consequences.

You're just another ignorant, big mouth troublemaker, who wouldn't know the truth, if it bit you in the balls. Take your anti-Bush rhetoric and stuff it.

You Bush-Bots are an interesting study in groupthink. Just to let you know, I am one of those conservatives that campaigned for and financially supported Bush in 2000. Unlike you though I am not another Bush shilling moron that spins away and ignores one broken campaign pledge after another as Bush tries to foolishly appease the left and help the democrats build a new constituency of future democratic voters by encouraging more illegal immigration. Numb Nuts like you won’t figure out that your conservative values and your country's sovereignty have been sold out by this president until the Republican Party is reduced once AGAIN to minority party status.

BTW, FR is a “Conservative” forum. Not a "Republican” forum. You knee "jerk" Bush Apologists should start your own Rah Rah forum where "A Day In the Life Of Bush" is the standard intellectual fare.

I can appreciate the need for civility on FreeRepublic. From time to time we all step over the line and break the ground rules.

If you find something that offensive, hit the abuse button and report it. OTOH, a private email would have been more then appropriate. Those are two options you have.

Frankly, I find your continued air of condescension and indignation, over the top.

You Bush Bashers are an interesting study in groupthink too. Here we are, a mere 16 months after Bush became President and already you've done a complete 180 in your opinion and support of the man. After eight long years of Clinton-Gore, we once again, have a conservative-republican in the White House and what do you do? You don't criticize him in a rational and sensible manner. Oh no. You attack him and you trash him and you bash him. Then you attack me too. And you expect a lifelong republican and a Reagan conservative, to just sit back and take that crappola. You expect me to believe that you ever supported Bush. It's quite obvious, you never supported President Bush. You're a liar!

Unlike you, I can tell the difference between the factual truth and the lies and distortions you've spewing tonight. Like I told before, you wouldn't know the truth, if it bit you in the cojones! That makes you the numb nut around here.

BTW, FR is a “Conservative” forum.

Oh really! Well I know that, but you're no conservative. You're a political neanderthal. LOL.

Whether you call it plain amnesty or "amnesty for a fee" is irrelevant. What's relevant here is that an illegal alien has been granted the option of becoming a citizen.

You are so right. It is amazing some people just don't get it.

I am? I'll tell you what, why don't you do a archive search on my posts during the fall of 2000 and come back and tell me again that I am a liar. Hey, it's all there on FR. Maybe then you will be a little more careful of who you call liar in the future because of your inability to deal with reality.

It may have helped the opponents of 245(i) that the previous week President Fox, in between eloquent appeals for a warm American welcome for Mexican immigrants, had handed back to Castro's secret police the handful of Cubans who had sought asylum in his own embassy.

What a hypocrite... I guess "human rights" only apply to his expatriate countrymen who suffer under the cruel conditions of El Notre.

My ability to deal with reality, isn't in question. Your so-called past support for President Bush, is what's in question. I've invested a lot of time, effort and money in President Bush over the last three years. I don't cut and run from a someone I supported as a candidate for a year and a half, after just 16 months in office. You haven't done your homework properly and have rushed to judgment, over issues you clearly don't understand. Too many people on FreeRepublic have let their emotions get the better of them. This is a time for thinking, not feeling. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. I don't think the going has gotten tough yet. Far from it.

I don't have the time to waste looking up anything on someone like you. If what you say, is true and you once supported President Bush, you're now a political turncoat. The only way Republicans can win elections and the conservative movement can advance its agenda, is for everyone to remain loyal to the cause and stick together. I support Bush most of the time. He has disappointed me on a some issues and I've been critical of him on several occasions, but this is no time to jump ship. Bush is riding high in the polls. He's handling a very difficult military conflict and doing a remarkable job leading the country, like no one has since Ronald Reagan. Wake up already.

If you don't like being called a liar, get back with the program and stop attacking Bush and his supporters.

No, I'm afraid that I am guilty of being able to think independently from the party from time to time. If that makes me a turncoat then fine, I am a turncoat.

Maybe you should think about this: If everyone that voted for Bush patted him on the back and defended his every move, no matter how far to the left he drifted, do you believe this would help the conservative cause? Or would Bush take the path of least resistance and move further to the left? You shouldn't be surprised when heated inner-party struggles emerge over policy decisions. It's part of the political process and ultimately beneficial to Bush and the GOP if they listen to what people of their party are saying about the issues.

They don't want to understand, they want to bury their head in the sand and pretend everything is alright. I also believe a few of these people have a vested interest in illegal aliens and the cheap labor they provide. One even admitted he hired some of them and what wonderful workers they were (for a paltry sum, I'm sure), lol. Yes, the country can be turned into another Mexico for the benefit of the greedy people who have to have cheap labor.
