All I see is most Republicans caving on this issue (except Tancredo and a few others).
So, Republicans making a deal on amnesty and also pushing for more visas for technical jobs (like IT, etc.).
So, we’ll have the high social costs (resulting in the push for high taxes) and depressed wages for the work supply coming into the country. Gee, what a plan.!
Why bother Voting anymore? These Politicians will do what ever they feel like anyways.
GWB has sold out the USA...Damn him to hell.....
Joe sent a message to John McCain that IF he supports this bill, "he might as well quit his campaign."
Ummm, Joe? IF he supports the bill? LOL. He helped draft it, FGS.

Republicans acting like liberal Democrats has consequences.
Gee, I don't know, seeing as this is a SENATE bill that hasn't even been proposed in the House.
Speaking of illiterate, your post was almost unintelligible. It appears, though, that you are bringing up the totally discredited BS about conservatives not voting in the 2006 elections. Stupid claims like this damage any credibility you might have left on other issues.
He works for the anti-American network MSNBC and he supports al Qaeda’s plan for Iraq.
You are right. Elections have consequences. Those of us that voted straight republican ticket, did are part in 2006. Those that voted third party, voted donk or stayed home, forced this immigration bill upon us.
While I agree with you I see no benefit in continually beating up our own over it. The party is splintered enough as it is. Somehow we have to pull it back together in the midst of all this disappointment to rise to the occasion and defeat Hillary in ‘08. Having said that I am at a loss on how to do that without effective leadership in Congress and the WH.
Let me check in my toddler to English dictionary.
Hillary Clinton will become President because these morons will stay home.
Yes, his hopes to be considered better than Jimmy the carter is finished, the most half-assed president of my life time is currently in office.
If you disagree with Tancredo, fine - but say why and don’t resort to mud-slinging personal attacks.
I put the blame results of the 2006 elections where it belongs. The politicians.
And I did vote straight republican in 2006
You’re not all wrong.
Yeah, the GOP could be better but it took a dem majority to do this.
That said, the amnesty portions of this bill are abhorrent. Some of the rest of the bill actually makes some sense.
What I don’t really understand is why the issues of work visas/permits needs to be connected to the citizenship process at all. Seems to me that we can clean up the work visa system and get all the people who just want to come here for jobs in labor-strapped industries like hotels and such... Without complicating the system by tying it to the citizenship process.
Disconnect them. There’s work visas and there’s a citizenship process. No need for them to be connected at all.
Sorry FRiend, when bush signs this amnesty bill into law, he will be handing the keys to the oval office to hillary at the same time
gee3 also jee (jē) interj.
Used as a mild expletive or exclamation, as of surprise, enthusiasm, or sympathy.
When Reagan gave a real amnesty far worse than this one, without increasing border security, did he hand the keys to a democratic president in 1988? No, he did not.
BJ became P. because globalist bush the first didnt want to be P anymore and was more then happy to turn over the reigns to a fellow traveler.
The reps lost in 06 because they govern,act and behave like democrats of forty years ago.
Hillary may very well become P but it wont be because morons stay home. It will be because the republicans have taken a hard left turn.
I have felt for some time now we as a nation are on a fast train to the end times. The dems have always shoveled coal faster and harder then reps so I ride the rep train. But lately their train has taken a hard left and the basterds are shoveling faster then dems.
I wont help them feed the fire. I will just try to survive and watch the train wreck.
