Tancredo: "We should be so lucky".
Msnbc ^

Posted on 05/03/2006 11:10:23 AM PDT by Kuja

Millions of Americans are very bothered by the nationwide rallies under the banner of "A Day Without Immigrants." The issue that has so many Americans outraged is not immigration, but illegal immigration.

A day without illegal immigrants might well be day of falling crime rates, lower taxes and more jobs for workers who are here legally

What are his politics anyway?

Whatever comes out of his mouth the moment he engages it. It depends upon which news crew or reporter that he is addressing. Really. I was standing next to him a number of times when he was interviewed during last year's big Minuteman Project operation in my county. He is not even close to being presidential material. Simcox is a little more firmly grounded, but he's all over the political map on some things. Neither fit well at all into a Republican mold and, while the Constitution Party is looking at him, Gilchrist won't fit in their mold either.

Could I support Tancredo for President. While it isn't realistic, I probably could as I tend to be comfortable with his politics along with the border security issue. Pence? Definitely! Gilchrist? Not a chance.

Extreme left-wing economics.

Horse feces. Post some facts that support this.

Damn and I was getting alittle excited about the CP. You have ruined my day.

Neither are Rudy, Rice, Romney, Frist, and all the other RINOs jockeying for position. At least Tancredo admits it that he has a snowball's chance of being POTUS. His goal is to force the GOP to take a stand on illegal immigration.

Gilchrist wants a truly punitive inheritance tax, and tax increases for the rich.

you and your family members or the 20 million illegals?

So, you're saying that a 5 year old should be condemned to die because her parents made a mistake by coming north of the border?

I'll tell you what, she can have my vaccine.

When it comes to life and death I'm not willing to sacrifice my humanity because someone is somewhere they shouldn't be, all the while trying to make a better life for themselves and their family.

A day without illegal immigrants would certainly bring down auto insurance rates. It seems that every time I read about a really bad accident in our newspaper, it involves illegals.

Fine. Open up your property to them. Why should we all be forced to do the same?

The OTM (Old Tired Media) will continue to support them, though.

"Look for the GOP power bosses to run a RINO" -- they are buffing up McCain as we speak.

The OBLers were just going to go off to their desert island estates anyway! And mock and heckle us poor peons as we gripe about dealing with the chaos.

The fact is, we'll probably have a vaccine before Mexico or any other 3rd world country. I'm not willing to donate my family share, and if that makes me "inhuman", so be it.
