To: Sabertooth; schu
schu: I propose a Marshal Plan for immigrants. If you do not meet the requirements, out of here.

Sabertooth responded: And how would you get them out?

For the lawbreakers? Simple. If the cops come across them, they just make a simple call to INS, and that can start THAT ball rolling. Something similar was done in Richmond VA involving federal gun laws, it was called Project Exile. It worked quite well.

Also, those on that Marshall Plan would have to provide name and address, I assume. And that makes tracking them down easier.

Sabertooth also said: "BTW, Illegals are not immigrants, they are invaders. We need to remain clear on that."

And what guaruntee do you have that the media will use the term "invaders" as opposed to "undocumented"? Why not take a look at the way they handled this recent CBS report on the so-called "warnings" prior to 9/11 and think things through?

Your plan might be workable, and the GOP could make tremendous gains, if everything goes your way on this. Your planning is familiar, if only because I happen to follow a certain field of military history when I have spare time. I see a lot of similarities to the way something called Operation MI was planned around sixty years ago.

The problem for the folks who planned Operation MI was that their opposition DIDN'T do what they were "supposed" to do. As a result, the planners of Operation MI set themselves up for the worst defeat in their nation's history at that time against an outgunned and outnumbered opponent.

Optimism can be a force-multiplier, but I do NOT advise making plans on the optimisitc appraisals. Plan for the worst and hope for the best, and you'll get much better results.

Then again, Sabertooth, you might not be willing to take advice from a so-called "Vichy Republican." But I'll offer it anyway in the long-shot hopes that you MIGHT be willing to consider this point.

We don't need a Marshall Plan (way overused and misunderstood phrase, btw) to start deporting, we can do it now.

But you two are afriad to deport now, so why should I believe you'd be any different after capitulation?

Also, those on that Marshall Plan would have to provide name and address, I assume. And that makes tracking them down easier.

Stop and think... tracking Illegals down in any significant numbers means far more of the police state tactics you've warned against than anything I've suggested.

Again, why should I believe the Surrender faction of the GOP would develop spines if we cave in just this one more time?

Sabertooth also said: "BTW, Illegals are not immigrants, they are invaders. We need to remain clear on that."

And what guarantee do you have that the media will use the term "invaders" as opposed to "undocumented"? Why not take a look at the way they handled this recent CBS report on the so-called "warnings" prior to 9/11 and think things through?

I can't even guarantee my own party can keep it straight, the Amnesty deniers are as prone to misrepesenting things as a liberal would.

In any case, who cares how CBS is handling the "9/11 foreknowledge" story? The public is yawning, it's wartime, and they know it's a farce. You keep warning against phantoms.

I ran a Google search on "Operation MI" and "Operation M.I." and got nothing. You seem to think this is significant, so why don't you elaborate.

Optimism can be a force-multiplier, but I do NOT advise making plans on the optimisitc appraisals. Plan for the worst and hope for the best, and you'll get much better results.

In all honesty, you're an absolutely wild-eyed optimist.

You believe that Surrender to Illegals against the will of our party rank-and-file and that of our country won't damage both.

Then again, Sabertooth, you might not be willing to take advice from a so-called "Vichy Republican." But I'll offer it anyway in the long-shot hopes that you MIGHT be willing to consider this point.

I've considered it many times, and found it lacking.

You're thinking like a liberal again, assuming that the definition of open-minded means someone else is agreeing with you.
