That teed me off too, however, I've become used to the limousine Liberals in the GOP.

Too many. But that doesn't mean I like the numbers to be even more inflated with third world illegals

Then why don't you campaign for such things as Health Savings Accounts, which IMO would help dismantle the current disaster called Medicaid.

sure Dane, there are millions of soldiers pulling in 104,000 bucks a year. Yep. but that is the figure that McCain just threw out.

As for the illegals - and I doubt you figures - in the military, I have no problem at all with them returning to their legal homeland. Today.

"If you like, I will leave," McCain told the AFL-CIO's Building and Construction Trades Department,

Don't let the door hit you in your sorry ass.

He offered anybody in the crowd $50 an hour to pick lettuce in Arizona.

Shouts of protest rose from the crowd, with some accepting McCain's job offer.

"I'll take it!" one man shouted.

McCain insisted none of them would do such menial labor for a complete season. "You can't do it, my friends."

No, I think they got it right. If he had said 5 dollars I dont think a man would have said he would take it.

Why do you spend so much time trying to incite people?

Yeah, who knows. I stick to my interpretation. But in any event I must say I have less respect for the MSM than for any American politician.

Illegals cause problems everywhere, not just medicaid. Our senate wants to give them future citizenship and little window dressing to keep future ones out. What is one to do?

P.S.: you can change your tagline, no one believes Hillary will do anything about the border anymore.

Is there a video of that?

That would be a keeper with the Hillary-Viacom booing video.

So, you're admitting you're just as boorish as these union thugs?

He said he would boo McCain because he is a RINO and that is worth a good boo or a hiss anyday.

Who pulled your ripcord anyway?

These people are already "incited." I asked whether the other poster truly lacks the civility as he implied in his post, and you ask ME why I incite people?

"As for the illegals - and I doubt you figures - in the military, I have no problem at all with them returning to their legal homeland. Today."

Neither do I. But president Bush signed an executive order allowing illegals in our military to have automatic citizenship, if you can believe it.

Hell, I don't think that they are on OUR side, let alone pulling in unions.

McCain is becoming the John F. Kerry of the GOP. Thank goodness it's happening before the nomination.
