Amnesty Amnesia
Team Tancredo ^ | Aug. 13, '07 | Staff

Posted on 08/17/2007 4:09:47 AM PDT by T.L.Sink

Some GOP primary candidates have developed a new pathology - "amnesty amnesia." Suddenly they seem to have learned that the antidote for this political disease has been discovered by Tancredo and Hunter.

Tancredo demonstrates, with press documentation and in their own words via YouTube, how three of the Republican candidates are treating us, the base, as if WE are the ones who might have amnesia! At least Rudy "sanctuary city" Giuliani and John "Kennedy buddy" McCain were sensible enough to not even show their faces at the Straw Poll. Romney won but bought the primary by spending an astonishing $800 per voter! Yet Tancredo, with virtually no money and MSM opposition, placed a strong 4th place. Under the circumstances, a very good and surprising showing - his ideas are resonating among the base!

Go TANC!!

It will also be interesting to see how many people are willing to settle for an amnesty compromise, when it becomes clear that that's what their candidate of choice promotes.
Fred Thompson should be added to the list of those with "Amnesty Amnesia". I posted this the other day on a thread titled, “THEY CAN’T DEPORT US ALL”

"And not all candidates will OR plan to!!!

Tancredo and Hunter have both stated that they will use attrition through enforcement to handle the illegal immigration problem. Yes, Fred has too, but unlike Fred, neither Tancredo nor Hunter have said that they oppose a "blanket" amnesty and to my knowledge neither has ever used that word. Neither has said, "figure out some way to make some differentiation between the kind of people that we have here" and neither has said, "You're going to have to, in some way, work out a deal where they can have some aspirations of citizenship but not make it so easy that it's unfair to the people waiting in line and abiding by the law."

If you're supporting Fred and think he is NOT preparing to 'compromise' by determining who is here and giving amnesty to the majority of "good" illegal aliens, exactly WHO is Fred was referring to in those bolded statements?"

With the exception of a few pro-illegal alien supporting Fredheads, the silence by the rest of the Fredheads on this question has been deafening.

Hunter/Tancredo in ‘08 or Tancredo/Hunter in ‘08. I don’t trust any of the other candidates on the Shamnesty/border security issue.

Amen. While the congress sneaks in legislation. Come on, a socialist healthcare snippet/sneak in plan to pay also for illegals up to 25? Um... tax credit is only to 16 right? Nevermind. Things you don’t know. They figure people can’t say we don’t want healthcare for children. BTW, we are barely meeting repopulation, aliens and some immigrants are having four and up... who will it pay for? Do you think those jobs we won’t do pay enough for extra law enforcement, prisons, housing, in-state tuition, ERs (many hospitals in the southwest closed because of costs), recurrent diseases previously eradicated, even talk of buying a car or payments to those here illegal.

They can’t get it through their heads, not only right and wrong (regardless of greedy businessmen in this country who haven’t given a heck for decades, btw... that’s slavery), but it’s not all about THEM. Terrorists are also coming here, still visas are given out to terror supporting nations subjects, we don’t keep track of those who visas expire... because we have so many illegals here from the south to hamper it. Funny how I don’t hear about the other than Mexicans who pay more thousands and don’t come via regular coyotes... but by drug cartels (another durn reason to do what we have to).

Think of the few stories leaked out, we have Fort Dix, the cell phone block purchasers, Saudis on a kids school bus, NC explosives in trunk, Jersey City radioactive container in trunk, NC guy SUVs over students, the mall shooting incident, the Jewish center, OU ‘ended up suicide’ bomber, followed by Georgia Tech explosives in trunk of same type as OU and the same at U of Mich and a college in CA during the same week, the flying imams, somali muslims protesting at Swift, U Mich for footbaths, cashiers refusing to scan pork products, taxis refusing to take some folks... do we know the follow-up to all these cases (there are many more, they’re dumbed down, alleged never ID’d or never seen in the media period). Do you know how many have walked on charges? Why not. Why does ICE, the Justice System and Chertoff coddle them as well as illegal aliens?

People need to wake up. Anytime there are problems in Washington and Oregon State, North Carolina and Florida, Red Houses (see Gates of Vienna blog for more info), set up in Virginia, Islamberg, NY and all over this country and guys like the one tried now that guarded Andrews AFB (who said he didn’t go by another name, he did and he hung with a terror supporting hate spewing imam here), which is where our president flies from also btw. Like here in NYC, Yemenis, Saudis, Pakis, others speak flawless Spanish, and gone are the times of hiring African slaves (just because they’re muslim, menial jobs) and now they hire Mexicans, South and Central Americans in those spots... not because it’s cheap, but because they are now muslims. Does anyone get it yet? The whole country, including state infrastructure contractors, schools city jobs, military installations... congress (cough), is infiltrated.

You make some really great points but let me just touch on one. The present proposed SCHIP legislation is supposedly for “uninsured” children. Forget that “children” covers young adults up to age 25 - who could by that age have their own children. They want to impose a tax of over a dollar per pack on cigarettes to partly fund this. BUT the MSM doesn’t tell the public that this coverage would apply to ILLEGAL ALIENS AND THEIR CHILDREN!! It’s bad enough that this is another step toward socialized medicine - but it INCLUDES illegals! Have we gone completely nuts?

Right - we certainly can’t trust them as Tancredo proves in that post. It’s insulting to us as voters that they think we’re too stupid to remember what they’ve done and said. They must think we’re suffering from their disease - AMNESTY! Or at least that’s what they hope!

I agree with that. I like Fred but I think he’s a very late arrival on the anti-illegal immigration issue, One thing is certain. Tancredo has been consistent on the issue since 1976. He has a 97% rating with the American Conserative Union. Hunter is also a proven commodity. Fred has a spotty record on the issue and I think his popularity is based more on name-recognition from Law and Order rather than his record. He also has the reputation for being rather lazy and not pursuing ANYTHING with any fervor and conviction. That’s true of many politicians but I think with all the urgent crises that face us as a nation, we need more than that. Compromise has its place but not with core principles. I’m afraid that for him such is a way of life and a conditioned senatorial response. But, it’s all in the record and that will come out.

“You’re going to have to, in some way, work out a deal where they can have some aspirations of citizenship but not make it so easy that it’s unfair to the people waiting in line and abiding by the law.”

That sounds like a sensible solution to me for dealing with the immigration mess.

Neither of them have a chance of winning the Republican nomination much less the Presidency. In fact, they have never polled above 5%.

I have great news. The RNC has started up their phone banking again w/brand new, cheerful telemarketers. I still said "no" but she "understood". They are trying to use honey to raise money.

Everyone was fired, remember that thread? They were fired because nobody would donate because of the Senate shamnesty bill.

We don’t contribute to the RNC any more; we only give to individual pro-life, conservative candidates, like DUNCAN HUNTER.
