Bush set for immigration speech

BUSH SET FOR IMMIGRATION SPEECH WHITE HOUSE President Bush is getting set for a prime-time speech on immigration tomorrow night. Aides note the 8 p-m, Eastern Time, speech will be the president's first from the Oval Office that does not involve Iraq and the war on terrorism. And they say that reflects Bush's "passion" on immigration. He's speaking as the Senate is poised to clear a compromise measure including his idea for a guest worker program. However, a rival House bill is limited to a border crackdown, and meshing the two won't be easy. Stand Up For America !

"We have room for but one flag, the American flag...
We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

See post #2876. Anyone know how to get this video to Savage?

[nicmarlo]

they do have MS-13 in Georgetown

Sheesh. I didn't know they were there too!

[mtbopfuyn]

Yes, I saw that segment too. Absolutely disgusting. And there's nothing we can do short of impeachment and running the majority of Washington out on a rail.

"From that video Dita linked that is all they were is GHETTO!"

I can't view video on my computer but I can picture all of it. I lived it from the beginning in California. Beautiful cities turned into trash heaps. If anyone doesn't believe it [for instance the goody goodies in Utah] they can take a trip below the border. What do you see? Yes trash and filth....hey who needs trash cans just throw it out the window. Tijuana, for instance [I'm sure it's still the same] is/was littered with trash, wandering dogs, slums and of course the ever present corrupt police. THAT, is what our cities will look like. Our jails and hospitals will not be able to handle the load of these law breaking invaders.

Anyway, back to the reason I logged in here. The Mcmaniac was on all three networks simultaneously this morning. UGH he makes me sick, the good people of Arizona need to get rid of him somehow, someway!! How can he possibly have any credibility with anyone at this point? I wonder if the alphabets are pushing him because everyone knows he will be a loser against anyone the Dims put up?

Anyone catching the rerun on cspan2 of the hearings for the Role of NG on the Border? Is it just me or is it obvious that both Representatives who coincidentally happen to be Latino are the only two who seem adamant about not wanting ng or wall on the border? (Silvestre Reyes and Mr. Artize (sp?))

[Kimberly GG]

Human Smugglers are not prosecuted unless they are smuggling 12 or more people across the border!!

I'm not sure, but I'll go look and see if I can find out!

[La Enchiladita]

It's just as well you couldn't view the video. There was threatening, insulting, vulgar trashy behavior from the "street life" along Broadway, as our Patriot Minutemen and Minutewomen marched BRAVELY and peacefully in support of secure borders.

As for McCain, was he talking re immigration "reform" this morning? Talk about an obvious set of circumstances we have. Vicente Fox touring the USA, McCain all over the drive-by morning prime time media as the Senate plans to slice and dice America.

Post #3010 is another indicator of the real agenda.

I literally feel like crying.

You are not alone. And, I'm sorry if viewing the video contributed to that.

I really don't care how much is already in place re globalization and North American Union, I have faith that we the people will not allow it.

May 24: Members of the Utah Minutemen Project stage a protest during Mexican President Vicente Fox's visit to Salt Lake City, Utah.

[Kimberly GG]

Do you think if I were to send that link for the video to our Reps that they would bother to watch it?

I've always said that if Americans could really see what lies behind those american flags they would be horrified. It's difficult not to stereotype, but what I've seen on this video IS, imo, a more accurate picture of the kind of people we will be dealing with when they decide to force their demands via LA REVOLUCION.

[Kimberly GG]

Nope, May 29....I think that what the Senate wanted though was to be certain that THEY came to a consensus before the holiday weekend.

So will a House/Senate conference have to wait until they return on the 5th? Or, lmao will they skip their vacations?

(It would be awesome if after all the Senate has worked on this dang bill, it they came to a vote this afternoon and then tomorrow Hastert plays 'majority of majority' and that's it! Is that possible?)
