You guys are killing your own party by whining and kevetchin all the time.

Fine if you guys want to be uncompromising and have NO chance of ever getting at least part of your political beliefs realized then stay stubborn and kill your own party.

"If we can give the Republicans some breathing room they can afford to move further to the right."

Read the Republican Party platform planks on immigration for the last 120 years. Have your buddy Bush join you.

That's what we voted for. Not this crap Bush is giving us.

When did Bush mention on the campaign trail that if elected, he'd put an open borders Libertarian in charge of the INS, push for an extension of 245i and give away the Naval training bases on Vieques, Puerto Rico and Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico to pander to the Hispanic vote?

He didn't have any reason to do that.

If this is what it means to the Republican Party to have a Republican in the White House, I'll take 4 more years of gridlock.

"...stay the course..."

Yeah, right into a socialist, 3rd world hell-hole.

I can't find the post, but sometime, just after the new year, I asked Jim Robinson how he felt about the immigration problem. He stated he was not concerned about it.

I want someone who understands the difference between legal and illegal immigration heading up the INS. Legal immigration good - illegal immigration bad. Pretty simple huh?

#939: Oh, so the Republicans are fighting for our sovereignty? Besides Tancredo, which Republicans are these Jim? If you could be specific.

#1034: Which ones are not ?

#1056: You never answered my question Jim.

Since you failed to answer my question, I will go first.

Given thirty years of this open border, immigration "free for all" that has resulted in many millions entering our nation illegally, I believe there are very few Republicans, or anyone else in DC, besides Tancredo, that are visibly and vocally fighting for our national sovereignty.

Now would you care to tell me which Republicans are standing with Tancredo and voicing outrage against this titanic, never ending invasion of illegal aliens?

Don't get me wrong. I hate them all too. Stealing all the good minimum wages that I was hoping wouldget my white arse off welfare!

Illegal aliens are stealing more than just minimum wage jobs. You really need to do some research on the subject.

Here is a reply from Rep. Jim Gibbons regarding H.R. 1452

Dear Mr._____

Thank you for contacting me regarding your opposition to H.R. 1452, the Family Reunification Act of 2001. I appreciate hearing from you and having the benefit of your views.

First, let me take this opportunity to elaborate on my position concerning immigration. One of our greatest strengths is that America is a nation of immigrants. However, countless Nevadans recognize the problem of unchecked growth of immigration, both legal and illegal, which places an unfair burden on taxpayers and takes a toll on American jobs and wages. While I support efforts to welcome new citizens into the United States, I continue to work with my colleagues in Congress and with the Bush Administration to address many of the inadequacies in our nation's current immigration system.

As you may already know, H.R. 1452 will amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to permit certain long-term residents aliens to seek cancellation of removal under such Act. It also authorizes that the Attorney General to release such aliens while they are seeking their exemption of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Currently, this bill has been referred to House Judiciary Subcomittee on Immigration and Claims. Although I am not a member of this Comittee, be assured that I will not support this legislation when it reaches the House floor.

Again, thank you for contacting me regarding this issue. Please do so again, on this or any other issue of importance to you.

Sincerely,
(signature)
Jim Gobbons
Member of Congress

I know this is a standard issue letter but it must irritate Senator Reid to no end to know that Jim is against the communism he promotes. Jim doesn't have to exuviate any false coats when he is in front of the Northern Nevadan voters. I just wish he was cloned as a Nevada Senator.

You appear to be delusional.

He is, and he talks to himself, also.

According to Joe Hadenuf: Official Free Republic Position Parallels GOP On Immigration. No Big Deal

Actually...
I am in favor of reparations. Here is why.

America's best days are in the rear view mirror. The majority population of the USA is a weak minded bunch that only wants to be left alone and make a buck. We have been shouted out of our culture and our nation is next.

Take a look at California. As California goes, so goes the rest of the nation. I grew up and went to college in California, and the influence of alien invaders has grown geometrically since I was a kid in the 80s. Now, the white-left, the apathetic white middle, and the alien hordes have permanently aquired power in the Golden State. They are chasing out the productive members of society that pay the taxes (whites between $60-120k). California's population growth would be negative, if not for all the international immigration - think about that! Given the fertility of the alien masses, this is a bold statement. The majority of children in the gov't schools are non-english speakers.

The rest of the nation awaits this fate. New Mexico and Texas are next.

What will wake up the majority of natives? One thing - economic catastrophe. It is the only thing we understand. During the paltry downturn of the early '90s, Californians became very "close minded" on immigration. As soon as things picked up, the "I have mine - don't rock the boat - gee, aren't I enlightened?" mindset came roaring back.

Immigration is killing America. These people do not assimilate, and are an alien presence in our nation. They are bent on destroying us.

Let's bring the race debate to a head. Let's have Joe 401k, pony up $200/mo for the next ten years to give to anyone who can trace their roots to anyplace south of the Med or East of the Jordan or south of the Rio Grande. Let's destroy America's captial in guilt brokering. Let's stand and be counted, and openly discuss race and the future of America. This can only happen when the average Joe is wondering where the next mortgage payment is coming from, wondering where his Lexus is being chopped, and watching street gangs burn down his neighborhood.

This can not happen when his 401k is growing 20%/yr, his preferred topic of conversation is how much his house is worth, and his concern for his DVD player in his new Ford Extinction over a $4 cup of Seattle-based brown water.

Bring it on. Pony up the money, and let's get the taboos on race removed from our discourse. I have said it before and I will say it again...
A GOP president will sign "Reparations" into law within the next 10 years!!!

Better now then later. 50 million yuppies cowering in fetal positions over their stock portfolios and upside down mortgages are more likely to fight when they are 45 than 55.

Thanks.
