"Conservatives will do better for themselves in the long run by separating themselves from the socialist Republicans and form their own party."

My vision is that the Democratic party is destroyed and replaced with a conservative party. Then it would be the conservative Party and the Republican Party.

"No bill is better than a bad bill."

Particularly in this case.

And without, it should be noted, the common courtesy of a reach-around.

Oh I expect there was a great deal of stroking going on. The GOP is bound to have gotten something out of this to make the whole deal happen.

PAC money, retirement funds from corporate interests, visits from prostitutes...

No doubt all done with the greatest of secrecy, don't want to look like a piece of filth to the suckers, er I mean constituents, back home.

Have you heard that only line about Paris being “worth a mass”? Well, these GOP senators had just as soon lose and get into highly paid lobbying if they can commit treason on this grand of scale. They are saying by their actions that a dose of treason is worth defeat.

OMG! Good for you! SEND NO MONEY TO THE RNC!!! Send money directly to your candidate of choice, especially if that is Duncan Hunter. :o)

I’m beginning to believe that I no longer live in the U.S.A.

I believe that all the people waiting on Fred just as well be “waiting for Godot”. I think he will be a huge disappointment. The problem is the people, as the old Walt Kelley cartoon says.

>> Has it ever been more obvious that this man is needed for POTUS?

That, or throwing cold water in the faces of his fellow Republicans (figuratively speaking of course.)

>The amnesty provision will also cover people like the ones in Jersey and anyone who has entered illegally, including any terrorists who have been lost in the shuffle.<

And they will all vote. And they will all vote Dinorat.
And they will begin to run their own candidates, if they are not already doing so. It’s like watching the Titanic sink while sitting in a rowboat!

“The fence issue is simple.

A fence is cheap.

A “high tech virtual fence is expensive and will send money to Boeing et al. to create all the gizmos.

Boeing is a better bet to kick-back “campaign contributions” than some fence building company and the workmen to tend it.

The corruption is deep.”

It can be explained more simply. A “virtual fence” can be easily turned off. A physical fence cannot be.

But these twelve million, or thirty million, or whatever, won't be voting for ten years, at least.

In the meantime, these guys have to run for reelection multiple times.

“Right. In the next few days this will be law.”

It is rare when one can witness history and know he is ahead of time.

United States of America (1781-2007) (dated from the ratification of the AOC).

Oh, it’ll limp along for a few more decades as it transitions from sovereign nation to a mere economic zone.

Wouldn't that be sweet!

It'll become more of a northern suburb of Mexico. Many of them already consider it to be as such.

Maybe Hewitt can see the writing on the wall..if this passes the Right Wing doesnt come out to vote next year, and Salem Radio Network (and Rush) become targets of the “Fairness Doctrine” show trials. That will affect Hugh’s bottom line, no matter how many ads he does for California Deluxe Windows....
