The Republicans need to be taught a lesson by becoming the minority party again if they are going to act like liberal Democrats. I didn't vote in Tuesdays election because of this and I'm not voting in November.

[WRhine]

BTTT.

[Reaganwuzthebest]

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.

[goldstategop]

I agree with you. Pushing the GOP in the minority would have the salutary development of ridding the party of the RINOs currently infesting it like an unwanted nuisance.

[Joe Hadenuf]

I will sit out the next election or vote 3rd party I just can not take it anymore..the war efforet has become cover to give away America

Thats it! It appears to be another a sell out. Why are we no longer represented? What deal has been made to the corrupt, criminal dictatorship of Mexico?

[MissAmericanPie]

I think we should ask him in person. Anyone for a march on D.C.?

[goldstategop]

This is for us exactly what his father's signing the tax increase was. Its really a litmus test and if the President were committed to conservative principles he wouldn't be trying to ram this down our throats. Time to ring up those phones in the House and Senate and let our elected representatives know what's going to be in store for them if they vote for this measure.

[Sabertooth]

Anyone for a march on D.C.?

I had the same thought last night.

[RnMomof7]

I will Go!!!

[EBUCK]

What does he have to gain by pushing this thru? What is the END he persues? Anyone?

EBUCK

[Reaganwuzthebest]

Wouldn't it be great if we could get thousands of protestors to descend on Washington and let them know what most Americans really think of what's going on? That is what it's going to take. That, and voting the rascals out.

[Sabertooth]

What does he have to gain by pushing this thru? What is the END he persues? Anyone?

I'm convinced that President Bush has got a bet with someone that says we're all stupid enough to be loyal to him after he spits in our eyes and sells our country down the Rio Grande.

[WRhine]

It doesn't matter now if it doesn't pass. The point is, he did it.

Yep, and if by chance this measure fails Jorge Bush will try it again and again until he gets what he wants. No bones about it. Bush represents the interests of Mexico not the U.S.A. His open favoritism expressed towards the millions of Mexican lawbreakers over every other LEGAL constituency in this nation is beyond appalling. This guy needs to be yanked from power along with most of the GOP.

[Regulator]

So, the administration is "angry" with a patriot like Tom Tancredo, and puts a sleazy, self-interested fat boy like Chris Cannon out there to play games with a screaming leftist like Zoe Lofgren to undermine the country?

Come on, BushBots, tell me the guy is a conservative.

BS.

[Brownie74]

We should be asking ourselves WTF he is in such a hell-fire hurry to cram this down our throats.

I have been asking myself this question since he started this madness. I can't come up with an answer.

Forget globalization. Forget big business. Forget free trade. I am beginning to think that something BIG is going on here. Something that none of us see or understand. I hope not but I can't figure it out.

[Reaganwuzthebest]

This so-called pro-immigration caucus Cannon is putting together will be almost all democrats, you watch. That's because that's what Cannon is. He calls himself a Republican so he'll get elected in conservative Utah.

Remarks By The President To The Hispanic Chamber Of Commerce

"I want to talk about another subject that's incredibly important for not only the border states, but all of America. And that's relations with our neighbors to the south, Mexico.

Mexico is a friend of America. Mexico is our neighbor. And we want our neighbors to succeed. We want our neighbors to do well. We want our neighbors to be successful. We understand that a poor neighbor is somebody that's going to be harder to deal with than a neighbor that's prospering. And that's why it's so important for us to tear down barriers and walls that might separate Mexico from the United States. And that's why it's so important for us to stand strong when it comes to free trade with our neighbors to the south.

NAFTA has been good for New Mexico, and it's been good for Mexico. And that's an important relationship that I pledge to continue on. I ask -- I ask for the Congress -- I ask for the Congress to give me trade promotion authority, so that we can not only have free trade with our neighbor to the south, so that we can have free trade throughout the hemisphere.

Oh, I know there's some voices who want to wall us off from Mexico. They want to build a wall. I say to them, they want to condemn our neighbors to the south in poverty, and I refuse to accept that type of isolationist and protectionist attitude. (Applause.)

And let me say one other thing, one other issue that's important. It speaks to the spirit of our nation. It speaks to whether or not we're going to be true friends with the neighbors to the south. And that's the issue of trucking. There are some people who say we shouldn't allow our friends to the south to send their trucks into the United States. I say that's discrimination against Mexico.

Numbersusa is working on faxes now, should be available soon. RED Alert: Vote set for Tuesday.

[Regulator]

Ping to you. Tell us - how do people in Provo-Orem feel about Chris Cannon's pro-illegal alien shenanigans?

And the recent Utah house vote to give in-state tuition to illegals?

[goldstategop]

Its a BI PARTISAN scam. The politicians want to put the people of this country last. And they want non citizen voters because they can be easily controlled and ordered to vote for bigger government, higher taxes, and crumbling third world infrastructure.
