I know that you did not address this question to me, but I am inclined to respond. Throughout the course of this thread I have seen many disparaging remarks about President Bush which might lead you to think that this is a Bush bashing thread. Some probably DO think that he is bereft of morals and values based on what I have read. Some are feeling betrayed by a man they believed in and others of us just don't understand why he is doing this. We have a lot of people who have weighed in here, many who have been at odds on other issues but have come together here with a common concern. We nearly ALL recognize that the implications of this amnesty bill will have devastating consequences for the country.
Personally, I am fond of President Bush. I think he is a fine man and a capable leader. I am not of the opinion that he is DELIBERATELY selling us to Mexico. I DO believe he is a man of principle and of values. However; I think he either has a blind spot the size of Texas on this issue OR, as has been mentioned earlier on this thread, that he truly believes that what he is doing is a good idea and because he believes it wholeheartedly he will not be swayed. It does concern me very much that he seems so determined to push this through that he is turning a deaf ear to the vast majority of Americans of all races and political persuaions.
If the House defeats this combination bill tomorrow, the visa-tracking bill that passed in Dec remains alive and awaiting Senate action.
Please call Congress at 800-648-3516 or 877-762-8762 and tell your representative to vote AGAINST 245(i). Thanks
Prop #187 was declared unconstitutional by Maria Pfaelzer, a notorious Leftist federal judge. Much, if not all of her specious decision would have been overturned by the US Supreme Court, and Democrat Governor Gray Davis of California knew it.
That's why Davis scuttled the appeal of Proposition #187... he knew he would lose, and wanted to reward his illegal California voters.
Same in Arkansas. I have to go less than a mile to feel like I'm in little mexcco....and most of these people do NOT speak English.
If Congress thinks that by delaying this we are going to forget about it, they are wrong. I for one will never forget!!
So far I have contacted El Presidente Jorge Bush, House Speaker Dennis Hastert, Congressman Pete Sessions, Senator Phil Gramm, and Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson. Everyone needs to contact their representatives and let them know, in no uncertain terms, exactly where they stand on this issue.
This is the other Bush blind spot that realy upsets me, but in all fairness, I have to believe that he's bought that lie. I don't think he fully realizes yet that it IS a lie.
I'm beginning to miss ol' Bubba. I could expect things like this from him - but I sure expected better things from Bush and the pubbies. Wrong again!!
And people were afraid clinton was going to get around the election to somehow stay in office? I think this guy's the REAL DEAL.
I think that's the heart of the matter. No real concern for future outcome, only for immediate results for those with certain agendas.
Your one-line, non-argument is irrelevant and is getting tiresome.
I never thought I would miss him eithor..but I do. At least we knew enough to watch him..We knew he was up to no good..
We have given Bush a pass because we have believed he was "one of us"..
You bet. San Diego is a beautiful city, built and engineered by Americans. it just happens to be near a corrupt, backwards country, ran by criminal dictators. A place where the people don't have enough guts or drive, to fight for it, and make it right.
somewhere up north? firenza? how's the water? (for bathing..we can drink vino...everybody but davis, that is.)
Nor is mine. But it doesn't include handing it over to Mexicans either.
Bush seems intent on handing the country over to both the Democrats and the Mexicans. I think the voting ratio for illegal alien turned voter is at least 2 to 1 for the Democrats because the Democrats are better at promising to hand out freebies. The ratio is probably much higher for amnestied type individuals because I think the 2 to 1 figure is for all immigrants. Clinton was no political fool and he would not have pushed motor voter, Citizenship USA, and hired an incompetent INS administrator if all that would have been good for the Republicans.
Drink the Bath Vino? No way! Be my Guest. I'll stick with the common..... conosewr...comnosewer.... the Good Stuff! Out of a Box. Made in Downtown L.A. In August of last year.
Some have. Many haven't. And I am confident that many more lurkers out there that are reading this thread are in total absolute agreement, and even more out there that must be questioning their own allegiance to those that would support this amnesty for literally millions of criminals.
Only a few have stepped forward to attempt to minimize or actually support this massive invasion of millions. This is very revealing.
Couple that to the fact that Bush is losing a lot of his grassroot support and you can safely say that Bush is going to have a long row to hoe in 2004.
As long as he maintains his present position on immigration and border control issues, I will not vote for him again.
