As a postscript, Colorado conservative Cong. Tom Tancredo is vowing that this program will not pass in Congress. Conservatives must pressure their federal representatives to oppose the Temporary Worker Program and assure its defeat.

Yes, we need to contact our representatives, but not about THIS plan! I can't believe so many people have forgotten a basic fact that I learned in elementary school...the President does not make law, Congress does! As Tancredo implies, Bush's plan will be in the cross-cut shredder the minute it hits Congress. There are currently two bills being considered, one in the Senate and one in the House:

House Version Sponsored by Tom Tancredo of CO

Senate Version Sponsored by John Cornyn of TX

Tancredo's plan puts the military on the border until we can train enough border patrol, increases the border patrol and detention centers, ends the "anchor child" problem, increases penalties and bonds and much more. We need to forget about Bush's plan and get on the Tancredo bandwagon by writing our Congress-critters!

Fundamental premise of Liberalism:

"Laws are to be obeyed only when convenient and then, only by the masses. Us superior folk don't need no stinkin laws nor do we need to obey them"

Bush is ignoring the violation of the law by these illegal alien criminals. Bush is demonstrating he is a CINO Liberal.

Your posting to a GOP crowd on a conservative forum.

A crowd that firmly beleives its better to utilize the limited resouces of the INS to do back ground checks on perhaps MILLIONS of Latino immigrants then to focus those limited resouces on screening Arabs and Muslims.

We have bought the profiling argument to keep our party guy in power no matter what. Your attempts to uss this site to push the "party" right will not go undebated!

I will never miss any opportunity to push the Republican Party to the right. To that end, I ran for and was elected Republican Precinct Committeeman in my district so that I could have a vote in the local Republican Party - to push the party to the right. I've introduced resolutions at local party meetings - to push the party to the right. I was elected President of the South East Arizona Republican Club - a very conservative Republican Club whose mission is to push the party to the right.

Is my agenda that obvious?

Funny how the INS still can't do both, in spite of federal spending increasing by 23% since 2001. Why is it we have plenty enough money to explode spending in every area except immigration and border control?

>>"Following the attacks of September the 11th, 2001, this duty of the federal government has become even more urgent." <<

This is beneath contempt...using murdered Americans as an excuse to advance this agenda. My view of GWB will never be the same, I fear.

Why? Do you like the prospect of a President Dean or President Clark? Please remember Clinton's 8 years of pillage.

Stranger is the argument that while we lack the resources and "cannot set up border guard towers every 500 feet" we will have the resources to do background checks and follow up on perhaps millions of "guest" workers.

I am not saying we should set up such towers but how can a GOPer argue they cannot increase the security of the borders while at the same time argue to increase the resources to monitor people once they have reached base and tagged in as "safe"!

In this case secruing our borders does not garner votes while "monitoring" those that made it past our security does.

I am not even touching on the it’s a post 9/11 world in which we should use more not less of our INS resources to monitor unfriendlies rather than cheap labor.


Its up to us to push the party right.
