Clark's immigration policy is fundamentally identical to that of the President's. This is a load of hot air, similar to him claiming there would be no 9/11's on his watch.
Agreed. Clark's playing the same basic "Amnesty = Security" game that Bush is.

Clark's nowhere on this or anything else.
John Edwards is the one to watch.

Hillary Clinton's lapdog makes a statement and many Freepers want to make him their new god. Wonderful.
To: LdSentinal
I don't think all those Freepers are as stupid as you think. They have been on to Clark since the get-go.
To: LdSentinal
General Wesley Clark, aka General Jack D. Ripper, is a nuts as he has ever been. I don't think MOST Freepers think of him as any kind of deity.
The problem is that the political establishment believe, with all the sincerity their sense of cultural and intellectual superiority grants them, that our borders are anachronisms that do nothing constructive and impede the free flow of commerce and ideas.
The result is an invasion on a scale with the wandering of tribes of the fifth century. The illegals crowd our cities, our hospitals and our jails. 95% of the outstanding homicide warrants in LA County are for Illegals. Some gangs of illegals number upwards of 20,000.
The whole "immigration issue" has a very Late Roman Empire feel to it. The soft fools in their marble cities won't get the message until the mob comes to their doors.

"smart move"
Really ..?? Well .. what if Bush proposed the Guest Worker idea just to force the dems to go against it ..??
So far .. everything Bush proposes the democrats are against. Why would immigration reform be any different ..??
As usual, the dems are so blinded by their hatred of Bush, they are dissing Hispanics right before an election .. not a very "smart move" to me.

Boy, Clark seems to think he's God or something -- using words like "ensure."
And all of this revamping of the INS is gonna take big bucks. Of course, we ALL know how well government bureaucracy works...the DMV comes to mind.
To: nwrep
It's a bizarre time in which we live when it's honorable for politicians to "curb" illegal activity rather than "stop" it or change the laws declaring it illegal....

"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." Those words are music to my ears but unfortunately they're coming out of the wrong mouth.
Those words should be coming from our President instead of a Presidential wanabee.

This is exactly what scares me about Clark...he will say ANYTHING to get votes.So how does that differentiate him from other politicians?

Why would the anchor baby thing require a Constitutional amendment? Why not just pass a law? Amendment XIV: Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.

Did you read, what he said?! Just for the record, I think he is a complete nutcase and should not be believed. I just posted this here to see how people would react.

Dubya has the vision of what is necessary and hasn't "closed" his mind to just focus on one issue at handWhy does it require a closed mind for him to just do his job - say, by increasing the number of patrollers on our own borders to the number of men he has patrolling Bosnia's borders? Seems to me he's rather closed-minded not to.

Nothing in that amendment says that the parents of a citizen, who aren't citizens themselves, are entitled to any kind of special breaks.

Well .. what if Bush proposed the Guest Worker idea just to force the dems to go against it ..?? Maybe Bush figured that by running to the left of the democrats, he was going to push them further left --- but this shows that some of the smarter ones are going to get to the right of Bush --- they'll seem to be the moderates who care about Americans more than they care about foreigners.

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." Work WITH one of the most corrupt governments in the world? Clark doesn't get it either --- we need to work against it --- the government of Mexico has to make some changes and quickly --- we can't stop the Revolution for much longer by catering to the oligarchs there who like the system just the way it is.

"But what the hey to the anti-Bush bandwagon, they will take the red meat and be ignorant of the facts."

Exactly.
It appears to me that some people want to make Free Republic the most anti-Bush site on the web, outdoing DU.
