This is not over yet. They won't give up this easily. They will resurect it and call it something else. We have to keep our guard up. STAGE TWO is to go after the people who hire illegals. Start giving them fines and arresting them. Just catch ten or 100 of them on the nightly news. The magnet will dry up and most of the 12 million will go home by themselves.

As an adendum, we should anonymously call the IRS, people working "off the books" means taxes ain't being paid. Make anonymous fliers and hang them around the neighborhood, name names. It's time to embarras these bustards, whether they give to the GOP or Rats, we don't need them.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein complained that critics continue to use the word "amnesty" to refer to proposals to legalize immigrants who agreed to pay fines, learn English and, at some point, briefly return to their home countries before obtaining lawful status in the U.S.

Memo to Feinswine: Agreeing to such conditions does not automatically translate to abiding by those conditions. And when it comes to illegal aliens the gov't has a long history of looking the other way while the third-world continues to flood in.

Wonder who needed General Pace’s departure before they would support the President’s position on the immigration bill?

[Chi-townChief]

Interestingly, the original proposal from back then didn’t look all that bad with the emphasis on border control (although the “guest worker” thing was still in there) but the recent amendments really blew it out of the water. The only good thing is that it’s not being snuck in like it was in the 80s.

Jorge’s meltdown has become so complete, I am starting to give more credibility to Dingy Harry Reid than Bush. Reid said it was BUSH”S BILL. This story seems to support such an assertion. Strangely, I believe it is those 70 House Democrats that are about the only thing holding up the will of the American people and amnesty. Jorge cannot discern the will of the people on his own.

...to revive the embattled plan for legalizing millions of unlawful immigrants.

He's cut the board three times and it's still too short!

[Plutarch]

You'd think that after Bush leaves office he would like to have venues other than the Bohemian Grove that he could make appearances without being booed.

If he showed up at say, a baseball stadium, right now it would be deafening. And this would be from his former supporters.

He might as well have drug resistant TB, such will be his isolation.

What is TSN?

William Jefferson belongs in small claims court compared to DiFi.

I like your letter better than mine. I was gonna write and ask for my money back. I wonder, will them make refunds—I don’t like this product. LOL

[Squeako]

This sure makes it hard for those “moderates” to claim that the “stay-at-homes” or the “Know-Nothings” are to blame for this Amnesty Disaster; it’s President Bush! “Oh!” they’ll say, “If you wouldn’t have tried to ‘teach them a lesson’, then you wouldn’t have this bill, but The Pence Bill!” Yeah? Really? Who’s pushing this one?

[A_Tradition_Continues]

G(uest)W(orker)Bush just “doesn’t get it.”

[BufordP]

According to NavyCanDo the answer is YES!

[dirtboy]

IMPEACH THIS HOBO!!!

Ain't gonna happen. He's becoming the Dems' best hope for success in 2008. You can't run against him if you've impeached him and removed him.

And what's Mullen's position on LOST?

[Cedric]

Wait until you see Bush’s next set of poll numbers!

[mtbopfuyn]

He’s not the Bush I voted for three times. I still say there’s been some serious invasion of the body snatchers here.

[RJL]

Well, be careful. The White House is watching this website now.

Republicans have been telling Bush for six years: "Secure the borders first" to prove he's serious, then move on to the next steps, but Bush wouldn't listen.

Now that it's almost impossible to secure the borders in his time remaining president, only now he's listening and watching? Pathetic!
