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.

If that were true, the solution would be simple: do not allow yourself to be baited.

Nobody would say that family values don't exist south of the border.

But many are accused of saying that.

One good thing about hot issues is their inherent creation of playgrounds for conducting flame fests. Yeeee Hawwwww!!! Throw reason to the winds, and engage the emotion drive, warp 7.

Come on, Howlin. Arasina was first on that ping list. I've got my hand out here, hoping that everybody can just take a deep breath. Are you really going to slap it away?

Thank you for that link; that is not a good thing. It's probably due to the WOT but this is an issue that just doesn't get me all in a panic the way it does other freepers so I plead ignorance because I've read very little about the issues.

McCain-Kennedy-Specter allows illegal aliens to become citizens after a certain number of years with some lame fine.

McCain-Kennedy-Specter?

The three stooges support increased citizenship quota's?

I'm crestfallen.

BTW, if McCain is Moe and Specter is Larry then Curley has a wet Oldsmoblile...

Hey, my mistake. I thought that post was to me.

"If you are illegally here and ANY plan being forwarded does not involve you returning to your $hithole of a nation and coming back legally, it's amnesty."

If someone was illegally here, they wouldn't be a guest?

There for they wouldn't be legal guest workers.

If all the illegals in the country aren't lined up and shot, is that amnesty to you?

If they aren't getting citizenship or green cards, its not amnesty to have a guest worker program.

We should care about Mexico and Mexicans because of oil and national security. I personally don't want something WORSE than Fox governing Mexico.

How insensitive. I don't see a single Hispanic-American in the picture. And I believe the Rough Riders all spoke English. It's hard to see how they accomplished anything, what with diversity being our greatest strength and all. And how did they keep their uniforms clean, since they didn't have any illegal immigrants with them to do all the jobs Americans won't do?

[Pelham]

Lol!
Now, who could you possibly have in mind... that one's going to take a lot of effort to figure out....

[Indy Pendance]

Well, you did jump into the 'bush fault' crowd. Look at who you are associating with. Do you want reform, do you want to discuss options, or are you here just to jump on the anything but bush bandwqgon?

[FreeReign]

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.

LOL! Hillary has the Bubba's baited.

[Howlin]

just because you posted all of that, it doesn't change the content.

Honest to God, you're shameless.

We're not all as dumb as you NEED us to be to pull that crap off anymore, EV.

They are YOUR words; you lied.

Somebody? Anybody? Cant we all just get along?

Of course. All you have to do is agree with me.

[onyx]

YOU posted to ME first tonight and I tried to have a conversation with you. I will admit you fooled me with the truancy pic, but now you say I was trying to bait you. lol.

[Howlin]

I obviously didn't understand your post.

[processing please hold]

It's the pack mentality they enjoy so much. Power in numbers.

[Mojave]

Were they arrested? Or detained while a ticket was written?

[MotleyGirl70]

Remember the FReepmail you sent me the other day--well, here's the perfect thread to get your answer as to who "those" FReepers are.

You'll spot 'em right away.
