You do know that everyone on this thread voted for him twice, right?

Yes, I did. As well as John Kyl. I spent many mornings manning the John Kyl phones and folding and preparing mailings. For what? This knife in my back and worse, a mess of a country to be left to my children. Maybe John Kyl is delusional enough to think he's going to secure himself a nice lifelong judgeship out of this deal. I don't even think it's wise to be holding property in the American South western states anymore. I'll be moving back east in the next year or two, I certainly do see the writing on the wall.

Thanks for letting us know we're not "intelligent" on this thread.

Clancy, you haven't made a post yet that doesn't urge us to "discuss", not slam.

I can't remember an issue that hasn't been discussed on this board more than this one. It's been discussed, debated, turned upside down and inside out. It's been discussed on talk radion, on TV news, on panel discussions, in town halls, on campuses, at the water cooler. Need I go on?

The discussions for these past years has led us to CONCLUSIONS on this issue. Why discuss forever?

This is what the pro-amnestyites want us to do. Discuss, discuss, discuss. This is a favorite liberal strategerie, by the way.....wear folks down with infinite talk, discussions, debates, concensuses, sensitivity sessions, political correctness, Elsie Dinsmore comments, kumbayas.......

We're stating our CONCLUSIONS here. You don't like that and accuse us of trash talk.

I suggest you state your own opinions. Then pull your hair net down over your eyes when we do our plain talkin' you dislike so much.

Or perhaps there must be another forum you can go to for endless "discussions" on this amnesty issue. I think you'll be happier by far. Let us know next year when you finally reach a CONCLUSION. To Hades with more discussions. This thread is where the rubber meets the road.

I’m sorry it didn’t work for you. I don’t have a transcript and I believe that is the only video service they are using right now. You might be able to get a clue what it was about by reading the comments under the video. Michelle gave out awards for various things. Graham, Chertoff, Gutierrez, Geraldo and others got thumbs down awards. Ironically, the only one who got a positive nod was Byron Dorgan. ;)

For someone complaining about the level of civility shown towards others, you’re doing a fair amount of slurring, snarling and foaming at the mouth yourself.

Obviously the low brow minds that regularly post here warranted enough attention from the administration to get a representative to post here. Even though we are just “trash talking” “idiots”. Admittedly, we aren’t the Harvard debate team, but anyone who takes more than a few seconds to scan the posts made here should know what we are all about and how we feel about the current amnesty sleight of hand.

And still, we simpletons warranted a representative of the administration posting to us as if we mattered.

So if we so offend your tender sensibilities, then hasta luego amigo, there are other locations to park yourself where you won’t have to be associated with the great unwashed.

You are totally wasting time and opportunity ranting against the president. I’ve been on this site for eight years and most of that time was spent countering the daily rants because he was not the perfect candidate carrying out the personally designated agenda of each poster.

Get to solving problems and let it go. Discuss your complaints respectfully with reasons and views.

My biggest worry about this is the following:

“A democracy is always temporary in nature;
it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government.”

“A democracy will continue to exist up until the
time that voters discover they can vote themselves
generous gifts from the public treasury.”

“From that moment on, the majority always vote for
the candidates who promise the most benefits from
the public treasury, with the result that every
democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal
policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.”
“The average age of the world’s greatest
civilizations from the beginning of history, has
been about 200 year s.”

“During those 200 years, those nations always
progressed through the following sequence:

1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6 from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. From dependence back into bondage”

Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University
School of Law, St.Paul, Minnesota, points out
some interesting facts concerning the 2000
Presidential election:

Number of States won by:
Gore: 19
Bush: 29

Square miles of land won by:
Gore: 580,000
Bush: 2,427,000

Population of counties won by:
Gore: 127 million
Bush: 143 million

Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
Gore: 13.2
Bush: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: “In aggregate, the map of
the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by
the taxpaying citizens of this great country. Gore’s
territory mostly encompassed those citizens living
in government-owned tenements and living off various
forms of government welfare...”

Olson believes the United States is now somewhere
between the “complacency and apathy” phase of
Professor Tyler’s definition of democracy, with some
forty percent of the nation’s population already
having reached the “governmental dependency” phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to
twenty-million criminal invaders called illegal’s and
they vote, then we can say good-bye to the USA in
fewer than five years.

Why should they obey the law? Their parents don't. Who's to enforce it?

BINGO! There is no respect for our laws because there is no respect for our country! With groups like La Raza there will never be enough until they take over what they think is theirs.

We are in a fight for our country (they are having babies at least thrice the rate we are) and our president is helping them!

Well, nick just did a drive by and left. I wonder the motive since the latest news is that they are going to go against the majority.

Tomorrow I buy a box of these and send them to the White House along with instructions on how to use them so that the President might finally hear the people:

A “leftist government” is all that continues to exist in Massachusetts forever, and I can’t wait to leave it forever! There is no such thing as a bright future in Massachusetts unless you truly have some serious, positive political connections.

Go ahead tell the President of the United States you are going to withdraw the support you never gave him in the first place.

You're the one making a fool of yourself. You know nothing about me, but are lashing out making ignorant assumptions.

The most ignorant is thinking that he cares about what we think. He ALREADY knows - from the last amnesty. He already told us that we don't know what's good for America. And he already told our Senators to ignore us when they go home and face their irate constituents.

How blind can you be?

I don't know what kind of posturing this thread is about, but I'm sure it's not to 'discuss' anything since all that was posted by the administration is a couple of paragraphs. Not one single response to anything anyone has written. That's not a discussion - perhaps try dictionary.com so you can understand what the word means.

Well, I just got Kyl’s answering machine and left him a short but heated threat that I will work against him and anyone that signs onto this amnesty. Tried McConnell’s office and they say business hours are closed. So I’m off to find the number for illegal aliens, I’m sure that one will take me right through to an answering machine at least.
