I'm waiting to hear what all the other "straws"are...

Go back and re-read the thread. Heck, go back and re-read the forum. Pay attention. There is no sense me repeating the laundry list of leftist-style pandering engaged in by our President.

But if we give them some degree of legal status under a guest worker program, all of sudden their presence will become a "bomb"that blows up America.

If we reward illegals with legal status, more will come. In fact, more are coming already, just in response to Bush's words.

Regarding a "bomb," I was using an analogy to help you understand that illegal immigration is just a "single puny issue." Illegal Immigration is to Issues as Nuclear Warhead is to Bombs. You didn't do well on the SATs, did you?

And this "threat"; means we should elect a liberal Democrat to the White House. Right.

As fast as Bush is running to the left on a lot of issues, we may already have one in the minds of many Conservatives, and he needs them to win. If they sit out or if he ticks them off too much, he is toast. With respect to the Illegal Immigrant issue, he could lose a lot of the middle, and it won't win him any favor from the left.

I will grant that Bush has done some good things - War on Terror and Taxes. Other than that, I'm scratching my head. He throws the social conservatives a bone every now and then too, mainly on issues a President can't do much about. Those are designed to keep people like you on board.

Nevertheless, if he doesn't quit spending like a drunken sailor and if he continues to ignore the immigration problem, those who are enamored with Bush b/c he is a decent man and those who only vote on the abortion topic will not be enough to keep him in office.

I represent that remark! I have been a drunken sailor and never spent money like that!

I asked you a simple question and you obviously can't answer it.

You prefer to hand out a "laundry list" of reading assignments...as if I'm supposed to research and do your homework to support your argument.

Pretty weak response.

Suggestion. Next time be prepared to support and defend your own positions.

Regarding a "bomb" I was using an analogy to help you understand that illegal immigration is just a "single puny issue." Illegal Immigration is to Issues as Nuclear Warhead is to Bombs.

Right. Let me "help you understand" that your argument is as bomb is to nuclear as firecracker is to warhead. LOL.

You didn't do well on the SATs, did you?

Actually I graduated first in my college class with a perfect 4.0 GPA.
But I'm sure you are the only undisputed genius on these boards. LOL.
