UH, no thank you. We already have them here. Scram!
What a bunch of bastards.
This can’t be true.
Lindsey Graham is representing John McCain on this, since Johnny Mc is too busy running for the Presidency and wants to distance himself.
Last evening the in the debate, John McCain said that he “has never supported amnesty.”
So this can’t be correct. Johnny wouldn’t lie [would he?].
I will, but my situation’s pretty hopeless, both of my senators are liberal Democrats.
Apparently the republicans want a repeat of what they saw in the last election.
It is unfortunate (for them and for the country) that they continue to ignore the part of the country that is between the East and West coasts.
Illegal immigration was a huge reason we lost. They can blame it on the war, on Bush, on whatever they want, but illegal immigration is a HUGE part of it.
How many ways can we say it? Apparently there is no way that our elected reps are going to hear us, regarding this issue, as they continue barreling ahead to throw themselves over the cliff.
Bush, Kennedy Join Forces Over Immigration |

That would be Sen. Edward Kennedy, the Massachusetts Democrat who played a crucial role in crafting and passing the No Child Left Behind Act, the president's massive effort to overhaul education policy. In a speech to the Associated General Contractors of America on May 2, Bush acknowledged Kennedy as a key player in the talks that are culminating this week, when the Senate opens an immigration debate. "I appreciate the leadership he's taken," Bush said.... |
The best part of this new legislation is that illegals here that don’t qualify for some form of legalization won’t be at any greater risk of being rounded up and being deported than before the new legislation.
This means that the only thing that will change is that millions will get amnesty, but nobody will be booted out.
What a great country!
A guy I know would love to immigrate to the US to escape the communist/socialist hellhole of Sweden, and had numerous chances to overstay his tourist visa while visiting relatives in New York, but no, he obeyed the law, and is now stuck trying to apply for a green card behind tens of thousands of other people from around the world, or hope for a lucky draw in the 2008 Diversity Visa lottery.
It sucks.
Well, technically what they're describing here is not amnesty. It's unconditional surrender to Mexico.
ping...
we’re fkd.
I'll betcha they all have at least a dozen children, wink, wink..
This is going to bankrupt our country, and we'll still need migrant workers.
sw
So Jorge, you hang with the Kennedy.... and Nixon went to China. How the hell do you socialists propose to finance this?
Where the hell are the bots?
Why bother.........these gutless b@stards are going to sell out America regardless of what the citizens of this nation want.
Save your dime.
This would be the perfect way to never win an election again.
