I don't know how long the date was there... when you complained I went to check and saw it. All right you caught me... I am an ultra-liberal 'Rat who posts extremely right wing stuff here everyday. Like the post I just sent saying Laura Ingram "hit one out of the ballpark" talking about reporters in Iraq.
Here are the facts:
I have never considered voting for a 'Rat
I have voted for W twice
I like W
I support efforts in Iraq although I don't think Islam is gonna allow anything positive in Middle East
I have issues with Prez on the border
I live in Cali and see the prob first hand
I want a fence
I Respect the Minutemen
W hasn't done anything about border yet and so I have doubts about his resolve
If the dems take this issue then we have problems
I don't like V. Fox
The border issue is a security issue as well
President Participates in Meeting on Comprehensive Immigration Reform
Here is a recent article on immigration by the president....
Excerpt:
THE PRESIDENT: I've just had a very constructive and important dialogue with members of the agricultural community, the faith community, the concerned citizen community about immigration. Ours is a nation of law and ours is a nation of immigrants, and we believe that we can have rational, important immigration policy that's based upon law and reflects our deep desire to be a compassionate and decent nation.
President George W. Bush speaks with participants in a meeting on immigration reform Thursday, March 23, 2006, in the Roosevelt Room of the White House. White House photo by Eric Draper Our government must enforce our borders; we've got plans in place to do so. But part of enforcing our borders is to have a guest worker program that encourages people to register their presence so that we know who they are, and says to them, if you're doing a job an American won't do, you're welcome here for a period of time to do that job.
The immigration debate is a vital debate for our country. It's important that we have a serious debate, one that discusses the issues. But I urge members of Congress and I urge people who like to comment on this issue to make sure the rhetoric is in accord with our traditions. I look around the table and I recognize that we've got people from different backgrounds, different heritages. We all may have different family histories, but we all sit around this table as Americans.
And, therefore, when we conduct this debate it must be done in a civil way. It must be done in a way that brings dignity to the process. It must be done in a way that doesn't pit one group of people against another. It must be done in a way that recognizes our history. I think now is the time for the United States Congress to act to get an immigration plan that is comprehensive and rational and achieves important objectives.
