Behind every vote - For Prop. 39, for the bonds, against any tax reduction - was Eliseo Medina and the Service Employees International Union, which is largely made up of illegals. Who of course loves this amnesty. Isn't it nice to see the kind of people Bush hangs out with?
Straight Democrat ticket for me through 2004.I may be conservative, but I am not like the blacks in the Democrat party where you can deficate on them and still get my vote.
I appreciate the sentiment, but if you vote for the Dems you are still voting for the corrupt "two" party system. Plus the Dems have even more unredeeming features than do the GOP. Either don't vote, or vote for a third party, or write in your own candidate on the ballot (try writing in George Washington or Thomas Jefferson; if the dead can win senate seats in Missouri, well, why not?).
Also I would not give up on the GOP entirely. Remember, the system is rigged against third parties, and we have not had a new successful party since the Republicans in 1860, and they succeeded in part by cannibalizing the Whigs. If a third party representing American interests does emerge in future, it will probably do so by encouraging major defections from the GOP. Until then we need our people active within at least one of the major parties, and that in effect means the GOP...for now.
Could be though I kind of doubt it. Some other Freeper must have pushed him over the edge. Yes, anyone following politics for awhile has seen the old shell game vote trading scam. I was surprised that my rep. Don Manzullo voted Nay given his crummy score of 50% on immigration bills as compiled by numbersusa. I suspect he might have traded his vote too. Amnesty out in my neck of the woods would not sell well. Then again I did call his office about 8 times in the last 2 weeks and inundated him with e-mails and faxes.
I'm with you brother. I was pretty fanatical on Bush, but he's lost me forever at this point. Being an honest guy and a good Commander in Chief isn't enough for me when nearly every horrid bit of legislation from the Education bill, to CFR, to this insane policy has been generated by him.
FOI: Be prepared to catch a lot of hell around here from the Bushelmania crowd.
ANTI-IMMIGRATION CONSERVATIVES ARE BOTHERED BUT KNOW HE IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS RIGHT NOW.
HISPANIC CATHOLICS WILL GO WILD FOR HIM NOW, I DO BELIEVE.
THIS IS A SHREWD IF PURELY POLITICAL MOVE.
And here is some more sobering food for thought.
Quota Hiring has seen to it that a very large number of foreign and domestic-born America haters are now "legitimate" aircrew members -- and are, thanks to "seniority," working their undeserved way into Command Positions.
And as one who has had to fly around the world with this scum as crew members, I can vouch that many of them are unbelieveably dangerous even before their politics are taken under consideration!
The number is 1-800-449-8255
Yep. Just like The U.S. Patriot Act, and all of the rest of his shrewd moves.
Let 'em drop.
No, his Daddy did that. They work for jr. now. They're "Rehabilitated".
Or is that "ReCycled"?
When he said days after he won the election that he may be a one term president, that he may not run again, I went uh oh. He has brought as much if not more ruination on us than Clinton ever dreamed of.
