Wesley Clark pledged Saturday to "get our balance right" by stemming illegal immigration while allowing immigrants to earn citizenship over time.

Appearing in this military community near the border with Mexico, the retired general said, "We are going to control our borders, going to work with the government of Mexico to stem what's going on down there because we have to."

[plain talk]

Well, actually he really said nothing. They all salute to need to reduce illegal immigration. Even Bush with his lousy new proposal would claim that he will work to curb illegal immigration. Nothing here.

I saw the newbie troll on another thread, and thought I'd keep an eye open for more of his posts.

He sure sounded like a DUmmy to me, but one of the slick ones who pretends to be conservative over here. I'm glad he's gone!

A High of 0 degrees. Damn,, That's T-shirt weather in my old native state. :-]

How thick is the ice these days anyway? Man, I miss ice fishing .. and drinking beer ... and listening to the wind blow across the frozen lake...

So who do you think will win Minniesoda and Wisconsin primary-wise?

Yeah, I am just too picky... but hey... did you read my poem? Great huh?

[NormsRevenge]

Good for you. Let the trolls beware. There was a numbo earlier this morning who really torqued my gourd.

I have more important things to do than read their tired screeds and lame crap.

[Lion in Winter]

Get well quick!

The government of Mexico will never work with us to curb illegal immigration. They are doing everything in their power to encourage it. They have special border patrol units funded by US taxpayers who aid illegals by telling them where and when they have the best chance to get across. Their ultimate goal is open borders and dual citizenship for Mexicans who cross over, allowing them to control the outcome of our elections.

Thanks! I'm trying! These past few days, I sleep throughout much of the day and then am up at all hours of the night.

Well now.........I guess all the anti-immigration crowd won't have to sit out the election.

You have your candidate!

sore throat, headache and laryngitis that makes me sound like Charlie Rangel

It sounds as though it can be overcome with a little TLC, however the Charlie Rangel voice would be a concern!!(If you start saying things in the same context as Charlie seek help FAST) ; )

I wish you well in getting better! (sheesh, I can almost hear your Rangel impression on the 'net)...not good! : )

Don't frustrate us with a lack of informative post's however. No need for us ALL to suffer!!! : (

I know what you mean about sleeping days and staying awake at night. I have been a under the weather for the past month, sort of, and sleep at night has been rough.

Have you tried the Ricola cough drops with herbs and honey. Those work really nice. My daughter got me some when I had a cold. NICE TASTE and they appeared to help the nasal congestion and helped keep my roar. LOL

[iopscusa]

Good point, I guess frustration with lack of attention to the issue is what bothers me, I just would like to consider some rational solutions.

I'm a sucker for flattery!

[NYC GOP Chick]

Thanks, I'll try that!

[sarcasm]

Like a liberal you equate immigration with illegal entry.

It's illegal immigration. Why is it that liberals and other morons have such a hard time recognizing the differnce between guests and criminal invaders?

I'm a sucker for flattery!

A sucker? No!

Deserving of the flattery? Yea!

Sniff, sniff, COUGH!

Mm, me thinks sympathy pains are kickin' in! :(

[NYC GOP Chick]
