I honestly think I have it figured out. See my posts on this thread and others about the 3rd George Bush (called "The Latino" Bush),and deals between to Mexican National oil company and various Bush family members.

Given the Bush family history in politics I can see this being a real possibility. And it answers a lot of questions that seem to defy all rationale. Question: didn't Bush III get into some hot water a few years ago with a girlfriend that claimed he harassed her?

Which, of course, is now synonymous with "Republican".

But, can't they just lie about how long they've been here?

You bet, it will be like the last second in the big game, as long as they got one foot in the in zone. As million more will make all kinds of claims.

As the millions that don't score, what the hell, they will just keep entering illegally. No big deal.

Bush will take in all the illegal aliens Mexico can spare, as long as he and his friends like Bill Bennett and Jack Kemp don't have to live near them. They have their Ivory Towers surrounded by walls to protect theirs.

Yup...I said so in so many words earlier in this thread.

I always thought that everyone in Congress should be forced to purchase a modest home in a modest neighborhood in Houston or Dallas (and they and their family live in it between sessions).

If they did, we may see a little more vigilance from them in getting on the INS's case about their total incompetence.

The disconnect between Congress and the American people we're seeing today is exactly why the Founders wanted a citizen legislature, so those elected to it would have lived among their neighbors and understood their problems. Instead what we have today in Congress are lobbyists for big corporations. We the people have got to put the heat on these losers big-time.

Sometimes I wonder what would happen if, in 2004, a Democrat like FDR came along and promised to stop the invasion.

Pauline Hanson, former leader of Australia's One Nation political party, did this in Australia. Her party did not win, but it took enough votes from the Labour Party to force them to take on illegal immigration before the last election.

Anyone following the news in Australia since last August knows that Australia has played hardball with illegal freeloaders arriving in boats on Australia's shores. She basically forced a major political party to adopt the anti-illegal-immigrant issue for their platform.

If I had Bill Gates' money, I would blast the airwaves with a political commercial right before the election in 2004 with a split-screen: on one side, Gallup poll results showing the American people's overwhelming negative opinion on granting illegal aliens any sort of legal status....on the other side, President Bush signing the bill into law.

If only I had Bill Gates' money.....

You know I think about that also. If there was someone, or a group of people with a lot of money they could run advertisments right now nationwide and put a stop to this amnesty cold. Let the whole public see on prime-time Congress is on the verge of selling us out again to illegal aliens, and the wimps will back down. Make sure the ad gives phone numbers to call, and who to call. Flood Speaker of the House Denny Hastard with friendly no's on that, and that will end it. Wouldn't that be great? If I had the money I'd do it too.

Nicely written,Sabertooth!What I want to know is this.Why should we be willing to accept these people when Fox seems so anxious to get rid of them.If it's the money that they send back to family,etc.,in Mexico,then it's money that won't be recirculated here.So basically,it costs Americans jobs twice over!

Like, maybe, U.S. troops being used to protect Mexican illegal aliens coming across the border...

Yeah,you listen to the horror stories of the people who live near the border,especially in Arizona.If one of them were to begin picking off these law-breakers for trespassing,you can be sure that we'd see arrests at the border.Arrests of American citizens trying to protect their property and families.

Reminds me of the story of the guy who heard burglars in his garage,called the police,and was told that no one could be there for a half hour.The guy calls back 2 minutes later,and says,"Don't bother,I just shot them".In two minutes the place is crawling with police,who arrest the burglars."I thought you said that you had shot them",says one cop."I thought you said there was no one around for a half hour",the guy replied.Of course,in our world,they would probably arrest him for filing a false police report.

Bush's approval rating has slipped below 80%, and by the time 2004 rolls around and attention shifts to domestic problems, he'll be at 50% or below. Conservatives are not going to forget this sellout."

And the sick part is,he won't pick up a single vote from the "left".

I can see how one day the Aztlan activists will see their goal of a Chicano only Southwest realized.

I seriously doubt it.They sure haven't been able to do much with Mexico in the past 500 years.They are pathetic pawns.This is not for Mexicans,Atzlans,or anyone else.It is to turn the US into a third world country,lorded over by the NY and London international bankers,who have no use for national sovereignty.

An American contract driver hauls a load in the USA and goes home to Missouri. He has a $900 month mortgage. A Mexican driver hauls a load in the USA for the same money and goes home to Mexico. He has a $100 month mortgage. The American can't compete unless he alters his lifestyle by moving 3 or 4 of his relatives into his house to split the mortg payment and parking 4 cars on the front lawn.

Yes ---it's almost impossible for Americans to compete because we are not allowed to build the kind of houses the Mexicans build ---one of the most common housing materials over there is old cardboard, some two-by-fours, and a corrugated tin roof. Our cost of living is many times higher but we're being forced to compete for the same wages now.
