NEW YORK (CNN) -- Hallelujah, brothers and sisters. I'm not even sure what "hallelujah" means, but the word just feels right after witnessing what is at the very least an awakening of the power of the people. I'm hopeful that November 7 was also a declaration that middle-class Americans won't be taken for granted by either political party.

Last year I would have thought Dobbs being a disruptor for the Dems was tinfoil hat talk. Now I'm coming around to y'alls view. Every immigration reformer I know was sick about the House loss, we knew what it meant. The House stood fast against the President, the Senate, their donors, all these major corporations, all kinds of religious groups and the news media, to stop amnesty. How can anyone remotely serious about this issue be happy?
And that's typical across the USA.
I bet you don't.
Who needs the smugness that is Lou Dobbs? Who? Not me.
It was a declaration that millions of idiots are willing to take the bait of false promises from Leftists who know how to talk a good game but have no intention of firming up the borders or improving the USA's comprehensive strength. If anything, the New Left will accelarate many of the processes that caused the angst Dobbs taps into.
No, worse than that. If one of these "moderates" is worried supporting a bill would hurt him in his district, he'll get permission to vote against it if Nancy has enough votes. So he'll then get to tell his constituents how "courageous" he was for voting against his party. And Nancy gets to pick the Committee Chairman, and she's already saying she wants strict party discipline. (ie: Jane Harman, moderate Patriot Act supporter out, Alycee Hastings, indicted corrupt judge gets chairmanship of the Intelligence committee.) Chairmanship is everything, if a Chairman doesn't like a bill, it doesn't even get a hearing.
I was just looking at that line. That's awful for a grown man to admit.
Pretty telling, isn't it?
What a knucklehead....His show is loaded with left-wing a-holes......He's not fooling nobody.
And those Reagan Dems are going to get a better deal from the Dhimmis? Dream on.
They can't. This is a total disaster for borders.
I'm trying to figure out what in this election is a victory for the middle class.
All of these television talking heads have gimmicks these days, as a way of holding an audience. O'Reilly has the "culture wars", Dobbs has the "war on the middle class". They sound catchy, and don't mean anything.
Two cities should not have that power.
I saw jroonies post on a thread yesterday, I read and printed the whole article. It is worth oour serious thought and action. The muslims are in cahoots with the Democrat party. The election was in the bag. Are we going to roll over like yellow dogs? Posted by jrooney:
Muqtada Al Sadr has:

“The vote shows the Iraqi and American people are of one mind about withdrawing U.S. troops,” said Falah Hassan Shanshal, who leads the parliamentary bloc of radical anti-American Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr. “We hope the Democrats don’t forget their campaign promises. If they don’t, we will deal with them in a brotherly way once the last American soldier pulls out from Iraq,” he said.”
Except for illegals, Dobbs is a dolt.
I think they bear a hugh responsibility. They don't have a clue how to get their message out (despite the media's bias) and the Repub leadership needs to learn about marketing. It ain't that complicated.
Yeah, the middle class will only prosper when illegal aliens (doing the work Americans won't do *cough*) drive American wages down. Bush can't wait to sign scamnesty through.
No they didn't. They were just waiting for the midterms to done.
But shortly before recessing late Friday, the House and Senate gave the Bush administration leeway to distribute the money to a combination of projects -- not just the physical barrier along the southern border. The funds may also be spent on roads, technology and "tactical infrastructure" to support the Homeland Security Department's preferred option of a "virtual fence."The loopholes leave the Bush administration with authority to decide where, when and how long a fence will be built, except for small stretches east of San Diego and in western Arizona. Homeland Security officials have proposed a fence half as long, lawmakers said.
This case reflects political calculations by GOP strategists that voters do not mind the details, and that key players -- including the administration, local leaders and the Mexican government - oppose a fence-only approach, analysts said.
Not exactly 'standing firm' to get squishy about the money.
