Conversions on the road to Damascus: TANCREDO!

Oh, McCain lies and says he has never supported amnesty.

Time for immigration questions, I hope someone brings up the Fort Dix Six!

I. Thou shalt allow multi-million dollar corporations who exploit illegals to cheat the tax code and put the burden of the expenses of illegals on the American taxpaying worker.

II. Thou shalt ally with organizations that promote socialism, a form of government that has persecuted millions of Christians worldwide.

III. Thou shalt claim that illegals are the needed by the economy even though they are less than 5 percent of the workforce.

IV. Thou shalt accuse anyone who criticizes illegal immigration of being racist, xenophobe, “uncompassionate” and other names regardless of their argument.

V. Dishonor United States sovereignty, laws, citizenship, culture, and the effort of legal immigrants to become citizens by legalizing illegals.

VI. Thou shalt allow anyone to commit crime who happens to be an illegal, poor, minority, female, and has kids.

VII. Thou shalt ignore the drugs, weapons, criminals, diseases, and terrorists that enter this country because of illegal immigration.

VIII. Thou shalt ignore the fact that 2,158 Americans are killed every year by illegal aliens. More than by Iranian and Syrian backed terrorist in Iraq.

IX. Thou shalt only show “compassion” to Hispanics when it can be blamed upon the United States of America and ignore the suffering Hispanics in their Countries by negligent governments.

X. Thou shalt ignore the belief in Jesus Christ, The Ten Commandments, the un-born, government corruption, family values, and other Christian values to make your definition of “compassion” as the requirement for being a Christian.

BTW...I will get flamed for this...if you are going to make abortion illegal, then are we ready to put a married mother of three in prison, and her spouse, for having an abortion? It is hypocritical to do it as before ..only putting the doc in jail.

Don't ask questions like that. Most ardent pro-lifers haven't thought that far ahead. It's enough to call abortion murder and insist it be illegal, without much thought about the punitive aspect of the illegality.

You have no clue about anything firearms related.

Dead on...Tancredo just TANKED. And of course old McCain just mumbled and drooled his way to a gobbledygook ‘response,’ which actually made Tancredo seem to make sense. And I LIKE Tancredo...but he really needed to organize his thoughts a sec on his ideal question.

Nope...and I’d thank you for not putting words in my mouth.

Return the decision of whether it’s legals or not TO THE INDIVIDUAL STATES. The majority of the people that are surveyed say they don’t agree with abortion and support repealing Roe.

The Feds are not listening to the will of the people on this issue.

The Original Roe case was based on flawed logic and arguements anyway.

But perhaps in your support for the murder of the Unborn...you can show me where exactly in the Constitution that it’s a PROTECTED RIGHT.

Well, many of us don't want this right in the hands of the next maniac pointing at our sons and daughters during class.

The maniac is going to get it, regardless of legalities.

I’m very suspicious of Brownback because of the Sebelius thing. You know about that?

I’m furious that Hunter has being frozen out yet again.

But the ones he did address were among the best. Especially the response about China.

Excuse me, i’m dumb.

Don’t we have temporary docs for illegals coming in already?

He’s wrong about the Dix guys, a couple did cross, unless the story’s changed.

He should ask about the backtracking of the funds re: the fence.

Why are schools targeted?

Because that is where the most UN-ARMED people will be gathered.

And who imbued you with the “divine right of kings” to make that decision?
