I like this guy. I'm a Bushie fan, but not too pleased in recent months.

"The president is not on our side," Tancredo told the paper, complaining that Bush supports an "open door" border policy that could lead to another terrorist attack. "Then the blood of the people killed will be on this administration and this Congress."

He makes a comment like that and he can't understand why the Bush Administration is upset???

[exmarine]

I'm with Tancredo. He's right on. The truth hurts, doesn't it Mr. Rove? Just watch now as conservatives abandon Bush in droves.

[Brownie74]

Ping!!

Bush team strikes back against Tancredo, but the Bush team never strikes back at Beady eyed Daschle, goes to show you Bush is a liberal and is openly anti conservative.

"The president is not on our side," Tancredo told the paper, complaining that Bush supports an "open door" border policy that could lead to another terrorist attack.

It's like gun control. Strict immigration control will keep everyone out except the terrorists. The Coast Guard is now saying that 25 terrorists have gotten into the U.S. by stowing away on cargo ships; how's the INS going to stop that?

(Next the Buchananites will say, "see, we told you that international trade was a bad thing.")

[whadizit]

This guy, Tancredo, is speaking for most of the conservatives in GOP. Hallelujah someone is!! ROVE MUST GO!! Me thinks he has gotten a little power-crazy!!

I would hazard to say as much as I like President Bush, but dispise his 245(i) policy, if Tancredo runs for President in 2004 under a anti-Illegal immigration/restricted immigration policy he would probably win the Republican primary, and if he ran on a third party ticket would get enough votes to become our next president. Especially if/when we get hit with a terrorist attack in the USA. Just my 2 cents worth.

Just one problem. Tancredo is on the warpath about illegal immigration from Mexico. But the terrorists come in from Canada, which is a much more open border, or on US visas direct from Europe. Tancredo's use of terrorism on the Mexican immigration issue is as phoney as the DEA's claim that the war on drugs fights terrorism.

The Bush team needs to get a clue.

Gopusa.com poll is not running in their favor at the moment:

GOPUSA Poll

Which of the following statements best summarizes your position on illegal immigration?

Illegal aliens should be deported because they broke the law in order to get here.
-- 68%

Amnesty should be granted to certain illegal aliens covered under President Bush's proposals.
-- 2%

A moratorium should be placed on all immigration until the illegal immigration problem can be fixed.
-- 27%

There should be no restrictions on immigrants who wish to enter the United States.
-- 1%

Bump for the truth.

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

As far as the borders go,"go lock up and turn on the NO VACANCY"sign!

I really like President Bush but I think he is all out wrong wanting to allow illegals already here to apply for approval to stay. It is not a question of loyalty to the President or to the Party. It is a matter of Constitutionality, respect for law, and doing what is right, and doing what the voters want. We do not want any illegals. We want our borders secure. We want people seeking the good life to come here and have a good time and even earn a living as long as they are here leaglly.

Tancredo didn't dispute any of the quotations. He was just surprised, he said, that the White House took so much offense at them.

He calls Bush a murderer and then says he's surprised that offense was taken. Sheesh, Tancredo is truly an idiot.

[Timesink]

"The president is not on our side," Tancredo told the paper, complaining that Bush supports an "open door" border policy that could lead to another terrorist attack. "Then the blood of the people killed will be on this administration and this Congress."

"The blood of the people killed will be on this administration?" These are the words of a grandstanding jerk, not anyone seriously interested in "establishing a dialogue." By his standards, the blood of everyone at the WTC and Pentagon are already on the hands of everyone in Congress right now, so why isn't HE resigning or turning himself in at the nearest police department?

[davidosborne]

I think Tancredo is right on.. although he could probably use a little more tact... maybe if we ALL supported him on this issue he would not have to be so abrasive, and we can let the President know how WE feel...

Actually, I find this incident very revealing.

Some men are "pillars of the community", always friendly and warm and gracious and kind (you know-kind of compassionate)--even to competitors. Then they go home and beat up on their family. Go figure...

[Jennikins]

Re Tancredo's remarks to Bush: Someone has to tell President Bush just what the story is. Bush seems determined to thwart what the people want. They keep on bringing back 245(i), on and off, but no problemo, it will get passed, quietly, just watch.
