No. Tancredo's mental instability has nothing to do with you or I.

Nice dodge. You never did serve, did you?

Nice dodge. You never did serve, did you?

I didn't pull a "Corporal Klinger" like Tancredo. Did you?

[jmc813]

Unlike you, I served in the Army.

"Got too hot for ya on the other thread eh?"
Dane's at it again, eh? Trying to paint anyone who is against open borders as a nut job?

It's ironic, that somebody who quotes Reagan in their tagline uses a Soviet tactic to discredit anyone who disagrees with them. In the old USSR, it was common practice to label anyone disagreeing with the official Party line as 'crazy' and of course that resulted in a nice (NOT) visit to one of their 'esteemed' mental institutions.

I see you've dealt with Mr. Dane before eh? LOL

Thanks.
Tancredo claimed sever depression and avoided service.
Do you support him? America will not.

[s_asher]

I support a "North American Economic Union" that streches from Canada down to Panama.

"I see you've dealt with Mr. Dane before eh? LOL"

I'd say I've learned about him, there's no dealing with him. I attempted to engage in debate with him. What I learned is there is no give and take, he espouses the liberal dogma about open borders, (I suspect he employs illegals), and ignores any points made.

He's sort of like a small pebble in your shoe. Annoying, but not damaging, and as long as you know what it is, you can ignore it.

[Chances Are]

Eh?

CA....

Reagan is evil and must be stopped. Vote for Tom LOL!

Nice job researching this. Very interesting excerpt. I wonder if you didn't reveal the author how many of us knee jerk reactionaries would have thought it was some liberal propaganda. since I heard about this north American union idea, I have been doing some soul searching about it. I am not yet sure where i stand but I'm not ready to vilify the proponents just yet. We need more information to be able to make the right decision. On one hand, our sovereignty is paramount. On the other, strong alliances with nations with mutual interests, boarders, religions, and types of government would seem to be desirable. The currency issue also intrigues me as does trade and sharing of resources. Example, it is much better to get oil and gas from Canada and Mexico than the Middle East. In a sense, having the dollar as the worlds reserve currency is a double edged sword. On one hand it makes for strong purchasing power because it is the universal standard. On the other hand, it makes us vulnerable to attacks on that currency by nations that mean us harm. We have already experienced a currency devaluation and are on the verge of another. If the world suddenly divests itself of dollar reserves even at a 10% rate it would make the costs of imported oil skyrocket. If the OPEC countries decided that the developing markets of India, and China could replace 20% of oil sold to the USA they could change to the Euro and create quite a quandary for our oil market. I really want to find out more about this North American Union before dismissing it as a big gov't big business power play to destroy America for the sake of profits. What say you on this?

I've been saying someone of Tancredo's stylings will run for awhile now. This is why it is SO CRITICAL that the repubs DO NOT nominate a moderate such as McCain, Guiliani, Romney, Rice.....ect. A Tancredo (or similar 3rd party) candidacy is the ONLY WAY Hillary can win in '08. Her husband never got over 49% of the vote and she won't even come close to that but 42% could be enough to win in a 3 way race.


''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

That is a very good way to look at this. We never will go wrong if we nominate an articulate, moral, charismatic, conservative, well versed in political wars yet unblemished by them with a spotless personal life and no skeletons in his/her closet. The trick is finding the second coming of Ronald Reagan not Ronald McDonald (smile)

"While beloved by many right-wingers and immigration hawks, Tancredo was recently labelled one of the 10 worst congressmen by Rolling Stone magazine."

Oooooh....the great Rolling Stone declared him one of the worst congressman. I saw that list. It was all conservative republicans, with Denny Hastert as the worst. The only democrat I remember on the ten list was William Jefferson. All conservatives are bad, and the only democrats who are are the ones who are jail-bait.

Rolling Stones is full of crap.

Working overtime (from what I can see) since November 7th. Hmmmmm wonder why that is?

"Rolling Stones is full of crap."

Rolling Stone magazine is full of crap.

I have been thinking about this and I think you are looking at it backward. In 2000 after 8 years of Klinton there was general Dem apathy and the GOP was energized. We would have voted for anyone with an R after his name. Pat's lack thereof resulted in a lack of votes. On the other hand, disillusioned libs gave 4% to Darth Nader. I believe we are about to see the exact reverse of 2000. The past election has shown the disillusionment of GOP voters and a 4% share for a far-right candidate is not unlikely. We would be well served to learn the lessons of 2000 and nominate a candidate who would marginalize any attack from the right.

ps. Regardless of the tactical maneuvering, we should vote for a conservative because of my tagline.

[CottonBall]

Tancredo, just like his puppet master Pat Buchanan, would like nothing more than to destroy the GOP.

Ironic statement. Bush has done more to destroy the GOP than anyone else. Look at the elections for proof.

[CottonBall]

The RINOs are in the driver's seat at the Republican national headquarters. The party needs another revolution as occurred in 1964 and 1980, where conservatives pushed the RINOs (then known as "me-too" Republicans) out of power. I don't know if Tancredo is the one to do it, but he is certainly better on the issues than the three RINOs (McCain, Romney, and Giuliani) who are the MSM designated Republican front runners for the Presidential nomination.

Great post.

[streetpreacher]

Bush continues to piss down the backs of conservatives.

[streetpreacher]

Maybe Peggy Noonan wrote it. She tends toward rose colored glasses.

[streetpreacher]

3% will likely turn an election.

[imintrouble]

The Canadian Bush Haters are lapping it up.

I simply refuse to learn French and Spanish too.
