Excellent points
When you see some of the advocates on Fox they will come out and say there shouldn't be any North American borders and should be free to roam from Central Americal to Canada and back.
The one guy who is the most arrogant of them all -- well almost -- Juan something -- just wrote a book and O'Reilly had him on this week... I can't even watch that guy he's so smarmy.
What is going to be fascinating is the court challenges to his enforcement. Let's hope they get a Bush appointed judge instead of a Clinton judge.
"Anyone who thinks the dems are not going to run on the border issue should listen to these ads..."
Thanks for confirming that my thoughts on Goldwater are right. The Dims are now all over this issue - - see my post not too far above this one on the Hill and Chuckie show (yuck!)
I thin Howard Dean is changing the play book -- actually I think they all changed their playbook last week. I saw Pelosi came out and said "We are not going to impeach the President."
Bait and switch if you ask me, but how many will fall for it because the dems are now saying they want strong borders?
We need to be very careful of the Trojan Horse called the Democratic Party.
I can't think of any election, in my lifetime, that will be more important than 2008...
Agreed! Our folks aren't taking it that seriously.
Thanks for the info SC. I'll need to dig further. I don't know that I understand exactly how the misdemeanor would work. A "civil penalty" doesn't sound very strong to me. It has definitely got to have serious consequences or it means squat.
I was reading the National Geographic article this morning on Hugo Chavez. I couldn't help but hear the sounds of Hillary, ringing in my ears, saying "we're going to take from you for the common good." (Hillary Clinton in San Francisco at a speech with Barbara Boxer in 2004).
"We need to be very careful of the Trojan Horse called the Democratic Party."
Excellent way of putting it Carolyn! And, you are so right - -we must be verrrrrry careful and diligent on pointing out their lies as well as the ones of the MSM.
Sadly, Mexico is a country that has lived on romantic illusions since its founding.
"IMO, the most important thing is that we all agree that this has to be stopped, and that we all need to be pushing our own representatives to get going NOW."
bump!
Let's go from here, shall we?
I agree, and bttt
No one said that law-abiding farmers and contractors are evil.
to take from you for the common good."
Yep, their common good is government and themselves.
Straw Dog.
The key here as Spiff pointed out is "law abiding". There will be a window but this will and is closing. If individuals or companies continue to engage in unlawful illegal employment practices they need to be prosecuted severely.
The American people are not stupid nor unreasonable. If farmers legitimately need imported labor then it shall be but Americans are no longer just going to accept the status quo or that any particular premise about it is necessarily true. You could say we are all from Missouri now because you are going to have to show me.
The problem with ANY government agency has always been, and ever shall be, the entrenched bureaucrats who have made this their career. The "appointee" has an easy or hard time depending on who is at the top. GW's appointees were guaranteed a bad time simply because of WHO appointed them- nothing more.
Homeland Security is the only agency I am willing to cut some slack. For ONCE it has to do with actual Constitutional requirements to protect the country and the borders from foreign threats. It is the ONLY agency that does.
It is unfortunate that the employees of these agencies have turned them into the "ministries" that Orwell warned us about.
OTOH, I have read and heard that other locals have them; however, that is not exactly first hand knowledge. Though I do believe that this IS factual and true. It is up to everyone to learn about just WHAT is really true about the place they live. I suspect, that it may surprise some and make everyone angrier than a disturbed hornets' nest.
Ohio, or parts of it, may very well have these laws/statutes as well.
Yes, it IS incumbent upon everyone to find out the facts and do something at THE LOCAL LEVEL! It's long past time for supposed Conservatives to get involved, at home, and to stop yelling for the federal government to solve the problems that should be taken care of in one's onw community. After all, aren't we supposed to be for a smaller fed government?
Conn. requires TWO forms of ID, to be presented, before one is allowed to enter the voting booth.
Didn't you read the header? Your post is precisely what was asked NOT to b e posted, since it is not only counter productive, but emotional and ridiculous.
