Boehner hints a back down on 'amnesty'
The Washington Times ^ | March 29, 2006 | Charles hurt

Posted on 03/29/2006 7:15:28 AM PST by surely_you_jest

House Majority Leader John A. Boehner refused yesterday to rule out compromising with the Senate to expand the House border security bill to include a guest-worker program or provisions that opponents call "amnesty." "Let's wait and see what the Senate can produce," he told reporters yesterday when asked whether House Republicans would reject the Senate Judiciary Committee's proposal to allow the estimated 12 million illegal aliens now in the U.S. to seek citizenship after paying a fine.

You are all probably correct, but I still think some of them are paid disruptors. The book Hillary's Secret War for which JR wrote the Foreward and FR was mentioned frequently makes it pretty clear how they operate.

Taking bows now. Thankee, Peach!
I think this time, it might be banned, not suspended.
It has earned a ban, IMO, but they do return under new names.

Morris talks a lot to hear himself in my opinion. However there are lots of reasons to keep some sort of friendly governments on our borders.

Oil is a fungible commodity and if they cease to sell directly to us then they will have to sell to some other entity or else lose the money. When they sell to someone else then the product they were buying from someone else but don't buy now so they can purchase from Mexico becomes part of the market that we have available to purchase.

Now if we are buying refined product from Mexico that maybe somewhat of a different story.

If the Mayor of Mexico City is the opposition then he certainly would have an advantage it would seem to me with Mexico City and surrounding urban area at some 20 million in population.

How dare you ruin a perfectly good hysterical thread with facts, logic and the like! You should hang your head in shame!

Come on, Coop. Dick Morris, Vicente Fox employee, hardly qualifies as the purveyor of 'facts and logic' in this debate.

He's trying to scare Americans into selling Mexico the farm.

When someone is banned, don't their posts disappear?

I thought that too. After the facts of 9/11 came out as far as the visa violations are concerned, was was for sure they would crack down on this.

No, I didn't hear it. Thanks. I did tell everyone to listen to the replay, didn't I?

Indeed you did.

The 35.2 million immigrants (legal and illegal) living in the country in March 2005 is the highest number ever recorded -- two and a half times the 13.5 million during the peak of the last great immigration wave in 1910.

U.S. pop. has increased about 3 or 3 1/2 times since 1910.

Percentage of immigrants living in this country today is lower than in 1910.

Exactly right, Peach.

Our dear FRiend, ohioWfan, even went to the trouble to find the exact quote in Hillary's book and she posted it for all to see.

So if Mexico elects a communist, can we finally close the gates on our "friendship border"?

I've been searching, but the searches results are so cluttered with loony left garbage, that it is difficult to cut through the weeds about "Bush and Ashcroft lying' about just about everything that it might take a while.

My son and I both clearly remember talk on the Fox coverage that we watched of films held secret before the towers fell and during the fall that reveal the horrors in a way that we have not heretofore seen.

If anyone wishes to correct me or has additional info, I will be most grateful.

Well, according to Dick Morris, Vicente Fox employee, we have to give Mexico everything its agents marching in the streets of LA are demanding, or we will have a communist running Mexico.

You're talking facts and the disruptors on this site don't want facts; they want mass hysteria and by darned, they'll do everything they can to whip it up.

As well, it's a mystery to me why a Republican president is being condemned by supposed Republicans on a Republican web site when this issue has been mishandled by every president since the beginning of time.

Did one single of these freepers have anything to say when Clinton ignored the immigration issue? It's not like 12 million people appeared in this country since the day George W. Bush was elected.

A choice between the communist and the status quo. That's some sad choice. Why is it we're taking either side?

Fact is, Peach, Bill Clinton's administration did a better job of enforcing the laws against hiring illegal aliens.

That said, he was also part of the problem. They were pouring across during his tenure, too.

Just not the deluge we have now, or the worse one we will have if amnesty is given to those who have stolen their way into America.
