I want immigrants to come to the USA. We will need them to fund our idiotic social service budget. Somebody is going to have to pay taxes when the baby boom retires.
I want them to be LEGAL immigrants. We’ll deal with those that are here, but I don’t want to give them z-visas that must be issued in 24 hours, that can be renewed indefinitely, that can allow them cross border travel.
I want the border closed NOW. I want serious enforcement and deportation of the immigrants that do not register and seek the path of citizenship. I want those that have overstayed their visas deported and put on a list so they are never allowed entrance again.
I totally agree with you.
I think we have seen two Bushes - the George Bush we nominated and elected the first time around - the man who cut taxes, strengthened the economy, waged war on terrorism, made military history - by taking over Afghanistan, and then followed it up by taking out a dangerous lunatic in Iraq. He is also the man who appointed a great conservative to the Supreme Court, and made numerous lower court appointments of conservatives.
The Second Term we have seen Jorge El Segundo, a President who broke his oath of office by refusing to enforce the Constitution and Federal Law by protecting our southern borders, and conspired with a foreign power - Mexico - to violate that border. A man who put a mediocrity in charge of the AG office who is pro-illegal, pro-affirmative action, pro-choice, and anti-Second Amendment merely because he was a family friend and Hispanic. A man who put a totally unqualified individual in charge of FEMA merely through family connections. A man who engineered the appiontment of a pro-illegal alien Hispanic to the Senate from Florida. A man who tried to outsource American port operations during a war against Islamic terrorists to an Islamic Nation. A man who tried to put a mediocre attorney who was a family friend on the Supreme Court. A man who did an about face on the religion of global warming. A man who seriously tried to sit down and negotiate with Iranians who are pumping men, material, expertise and advise into Iraq which is killing American soldiers. A man who persecutes U.S. border guards for trying to protect us. A man who arrogantly ignores the majority opinion of his base and the American public by conspiring with a low-life like Senator Kennedy to get through an Amnesty bill to cover those illegal aliens he helped sneak into America, and who promotes a Rent-a-Slave Program as a “Guest worker program. A man who rejects English as the official language of America. A man who refuses to pardon a close aid who is sentenced to prison on trumped charges by a hostile Democrat Congress.
I saw some questionable things in his first term - retaining Clinton appointees in important offices, failure to retaliate in the Fallujah butchery of some American contractors, references to Islam as a “peaceful” religion, signing McCain-Feingold into law, and a willingness to sign an Assault Rilfe Extention. All of the preceding appeared to be a cause for concern, but things seemed to be going well over all so I overlooked it.
I have changed my assessment of this man. I believe he flim-flammed us. He initially presented himself as a conservative - a “compassionate conservative” But as soon as he no longer needed his base, he apparently felt free to implement an aganda which was anything BUT conservative.
His latest activites regarding the Amnesty Bill and his rent-a-slave program may very well cause the destruction of the Republican Party - and of America itself utlimately.
At the very least it was a sure contributor to the loss of Congress to the Rats in 2006 and may very well loose the election for President in 2008.
