Immigration is a big deal to the GOP especially the California GOP. Pete Wilson signed and strongly supported prop. 187 and for his trouble the (Democrat dominated) court stopped it, Republicans were defeated and trashed as hispanic-hating bigots ever since by the radical immigrant lobby mobilizing the hispanic voter.
Since hispanic Democrats now control California and probably Arizona, New Mexico and Texas...it will take a huge push on the part of conservatives to overcome this travesty. But it's probably already too late.
Childishly bashing Jim with such a loopy vanity will help nothing. If you've been a conservative for any amount of time, you must have noticed that not everyone on our side is rabid and biting nails over every single issue. This ignorant standard of obsessive purity and required fury are some of the most destructive elements of the right.
No one ever sees the mouth-breathers at DU attacking each other over crap like this. It's disgusting that our side continues to make new inroads in self-mulitation.
Childishly bashing of Jim? All I did was to quote Jim Robinson's position on immigration, which was, "Immigration is not a big concern of mine."
Can you quote me where I was Childishly bashing Jim Robinson? I don't think that exist anywhere, except your imagination.
If you've been a conservative for any amount of time,
You have no idea Missy.
you must have noticed that not everyone on our side is rabid and biting nails over every single issue.
Where on this thread was I "rabid" over this issue?
This ignorant standard of obsessive purity and required fury are some of the most destructive elements of the right.
Ignorant standard of obsessive purity? This issue is about millions upon millions of illegal aliens that have criminally invaded our nation and continue to do so, at the rate of thousands a day.
A crisis that was once isolated to California, Texas, and Arizona has now reached all corners of this nation. This illegal invasion is compounded by the problems of unchecked, and unmanaged legal immigration, in a war time period yet.
Now, could you explain what you meant by ignorant standard of obsessive purity, that you think is surrounding this titanic national crisis?
