This is almost reminiscent of the time they passed the WTO.

A real slime job.

Count this as the first time I'm going on the record here on FR expressing my disgust with Bush and the House Pubbies. I'm a broken glass Conservative and I donated nearly 5% of my income in 2000 to get a Pubbie in office. Why must a Bush seems to always have to veer to the middle once elected. We have to put a stop to this annexation by Mexico not encourage it. I'm very disappointed.

There's a story about a New Mexico prof claiming that the Southwest will secede from the US, in the headline of Hollywood Investigator

I haven't read all the postings here, but they seem to be running in concert with the same subject on a different thread. FReepers need to get the facts about issues before they post.

We are all so eager to express our heated opinions about illegal aliens invading our country, that we jump to conclusions that aren't based on facts.

As I posted on the other thread, 245I is not a blanket amnesty for all illegal aliens!! 245I applies only to aliens who came here with paperwork, like student visas or work visas, and let them expire. 245I allows this lesser group of aliens to re-register (with certain stipulations), and to pay a $1,000 fine, then wait for an interview with the INS -- which may or may not grant them legal citizenship.

This does not apply to the hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants who snuck across the border without paperwork!!
