I hope you continue supporting President Bush. If we can crush Tancredo we might be able to speed up the system.

I have a major problem with President Bush and our Congress pandering to the Latino vote, Latino illegals, and CRAPPING ON THE FAMILIES OF CITIZENS.

You're mixing issues. Tell me how Bush is crapping on the families of citizens and I suspect I'll agree with you and add my voice to yours. Has he changed immigration law to make it more difficult to get family members in? The last I heard Bush was working to substantially reduce that time. But what does that have to do with border jumpers. They aren't cutting in line. They don't slow others down or make it more difficult for others.

As far as pandering to American citizens of Hispanic heritage, I'm all for that, just as we should pander to all groups. That includes welcoming them into the party, recognizing their cultural holidays, sending flowers to the funerals of their community leaders, entertainers, religious figures, etc..., advertising in their media and on billboards in their neighborhoods, having town hall meeting in their neighborhoods and listening to their complaints, hiring some on your staff that they can feel comfortable calling to express their opinions, naming posts offices after them. appointing them to high profile positions, speaking a few phrases in their native language, complimenting the beauty of their women, praising their food.....What's wrong with that? That's called smart politics and good representing.
