So there you go. I'm coming over, and I'm going to eat your food. You can sleep on the couch, by the way. Oh, and after a while, I'll need the title to the property. Don't worry, you can still go to work- I don't want the job if you're still willing to do it. Just keep the food coming in.
After all, you are a compassionate person, right? I love my family, and I practice my faith...
And speaking of family, they'll be along shortly too...
Fox is clever like a you know what.
Bush's speech was nothing more than the same old, same old. 6,000 NG troops on the border is a bone he is tossing to his critics (us) in order to pave the wqay for his guest worker/amnesty plan. IMO, either of those are deal breakers.
I won't be bought off with 6,000 NG troops who (it was revealed this morning) will have absolutely NOTHING to do with stopping the illegal invasion.
As I suspected, it's all smoke and mirrors.
That's otherwise known as 'slave labor'.
Viva Vincente Fox.
Worthless turd has done zero for his country since taking office amid so much optimisim.
Still as corrupt as a place can be.
If it slows them down until their apprehension, it's done its job. If a lock on the door slows a thief until they are caught, it's done its job. If a lock keeps someone out until they are observed and convinced to go elsewhere, it's done its job.
If a fence proves too difficult to cross without significant risks, its crossing will not be attempted. It WILL work.
Fox played Bush. One of his ministers announced to the press six months ago that Mexico was 'integrating' with the US, implying there was nothing we could or would do about it.
Is Harris going to beat this border drum againt Nelson? Maybe that's why she was stabbed in the back.
I believe the President did okay in an impossible situation that was not of his making. So, tighten the borders to reduce the flow and process the undocumented immigrants that remain. I tend to look at these matters primarily in economic terms. If they pay, they can stay. Indeed, if an undocumented immigrant can demonstrate that they are paying their fair share of federal, state and especially school taxes they should be deemed appropriate. I think the debate is over. They are staying if appropriate. The remaining discussion is how do you determine appropriate and how do you process a massive citizenship initiative based on some condition of naturalization.
So do I. Any thoughts on the ideas in post 2? What we got last night was a non-solution.
Nope, Harris has too much baggage to win. The Dems hate her cause of the 2000 election and the republicans think she's radioactive.
Nice looking lady bereft of any real ideas and as for locking on to illegals, here in Florida about 10 percent here are illegals.
Look for Nelson in a walkover that is if Harris wins the repub nomination.
Sadly, I have to agree. The GOP backstab didn't help. Seems they have a real problem with conservatives running for the Senate, if McCollum was any indication.
McCollum while a real conservative is boring as hell.
Hard to go up against a pretty Harris face with a high profile name.
Florida is owned by the republican party cept for Nelsons seat. And I just don't get it cause Nelson has done zero for Florida.
Rohrabacher is my Rep, so I don't have to leave the GOP in order to vote conservative.
"If I was you I would just stay at home and not vote or find a third party canadaite. "
I'll never pull a straight party ticket again, ever.
Absolutely nothing about holding that band of racist crooks in Mexico City accountable.
But, they're our best friend and trading partner, don't you know? /s
