What we need is a “Million American March,” where a million Americans actually show up in Washington to demand that something effective be done about illegal aliens.

Not likely to happen. Most are working too hard to feed and clothe their families and to pay for the social programs the illegal aliens are sucking like leeches.

I think the focus would have been too much on the sign with the nasty commentary from the MSM.

So, after all this, you finally admit that you McCain "mavericks" are really only worried about what the MSM thinks, something real conservatives have suspected all along.

After all, "Tolerance is the virtue of believing in nothing."

I think we’ll be seeing “Si se puede” signs handed out to the crowd at McLame rallies.

Correction. We'll be seeing, "Si, se puede, mis amigos!" signs handed out to the crowd a the McLame rallies.

Our “leaders” couldn’t care less as long as they get to be at the top of that pile.

And watching their behaviour brings clarity to why the English dealt with Charles I, the French Louis XVI and the Russians Nicholas II the way they did.

WE have to come up with viable yes VIABLE solutions to Amnesty.

There is only one alternative. Either they get amnesty or they don't. My vote is no. The CEOs of the companies that hire illegals need to be doing real prison time and they'll quit luring them in the first place.

We aren't congress and we don't need to play the game of offering solutions and counter offers. We said No the first time and we meant No the first time.

True, but things are getting so bad that I think we must make sacrifices.

Simple. You give them one month to self-destruct, then men on horses with shotguns *walk* them back to Mexico.

No, Laura Ingraham says Sarah told her. I would like to hear Sarah tell us.

LOL I got your point in either case.

Seriously I’m sick of being told that we should make deals with the criminals crossing the border or the criminals sitting in DC. It’s like making a deal with a murdering rapist to stop killing his victims.

Your support for illegals is clear.

How the hell does bringing back the Bracero Program that was started in World War II constitute "support for illegals".

What drives your support?

What drives your habit of sniffing your dog's butt and what drives your habit of beating your wife ?

Your statement is a non sequitur.

You wanting to silence us shows the measure of your resolve as an American.

Who is trying to "silence" you. No ABUSE buttons have been pushed.

What is being done is to show that helping Barack Obama get elected in November does not make you the sharpest pencils in the box.

Just continues to justify my reasons for not supporting Liberal loving socialist Juan McCain. People will end up with what they deserve as usual after Juan is s/elected. Viva America, the next northern state of Mexico.

....Lets save this fight until after we win.

And if you are serious then please pray tell what your bargaining position will be?! After Juan is s/elected he will most likely flip off those pro-borders America firster types who naively still believe in America first and always. That's his true nature when confronted with something or someone he doesn't like or want. Good luck with your pipe dream.

Yes, but at who's expense I would ask!
