Wake up Conservative Base!

Posted on 05/10/2008 9:11:06 AM PDT by RonnieFan

All indications are the Democrats will pick up seats in both the House and Senate, with the Senate likely being a couple of RHINOs away from the magic 60. McCain is no Reagan but he's the only thing standing in the way of the most liberal Senator in Senate becoming President with a clear majority in Congress and at a critical time with decisions to be made on the war on terror, the war in Iraq, heath care, taxes, illegal immigration and likely the Supreme Court.

Sometimes you do have to pick the lesser of two evils. This is one of them. I am fully aware that I'll be let down by McCain on some key issues but I know I'll be let down on all of them if Obama is President.

He’s a politician on the stump and his mouth is moving. Are you actually naive enough to believe his words or the evidence of his deeds? Juan Hernandez is still his advisor, he’s still berating the Republican party for not following him off the amnesty cliff and he’s still pandering to racist hispanic groups.

If you believe for one minute he’s changed his mind about amnesty, I have some mountain property in Florida to sell you.

And feed it to others, to boot! Forcibly!

... and THEN get all huffily red-faced and indignant, like so many virgin prairie schoolmarms, whenever we promptly spit it back out again! ;)

Others grasp at straws and cling to false hope. I’m working to elect conservatives downticket to blunt whichever socialist wins the WH in November. THAT is the sane conservative response to this untenable situation.

As opposed to resorting to desperation tactics by McCain spamposting every five minutes here on FR. If their nominee is so good, he won't need conservatives- at least that's one of their big assertions and one which McCain himself is applying. They need to go find a committed base of undecideds or dem crossovers sites to shill at. I'm sure they will be thrilled to hear from McCainiacs, if they can find them...

Here's a great list of existing immigration laws

To remain here illegally is a felony;

Must have means to sustain themselves economically;

Must not be destined to be a burden on society;

Must be of economic and social benefit to society;

Must be of good character and have no criminal record;

Must have immigration authority and must have a record;

Foreign visitors violating terms of their entry are imprisoned or deported;

Those who aid illegal immigration will be sent to prison.

These no-nonsense laws are rigorously enforced----not by cruel Americanos. These are the laws of our southern neighbor, Mexico.

Then stop telling me what’s wrong with McCain. Tell me who you are voting for, and why you believe they will not only do well for the US, but why they have a chance of actually winning.

What’s YOUR solution?

THIS LEGISLATON JUST PASSED IN ARIZONA--JUAN'S HOME STATE: Juan McCain better wake up and smell the enchiladas.

Fed up with the devastating effect of illegal immigration, Arizona has enacted the nation’s toughest laws to curb the problem and evidently its working. State legislators have passed laws barring illegal immigrants from receiving government services, posting bail for serious crimes and winning punitive damages in lawsuits. This year a new law makes it illegal for businesses to hire undocumented workers and those that do can be shut down.

The state legislator who sponsored the work bill, Representative Russell Pearce, says the law’s undeniably positive effects include smaller class sizes, shorter emergency room waits and an overall huge savings to taxpayers. The Republican congressman drafted the bill because studies revealed that illegal immigration cost Arizona taxpayers over $2 billion annually, not including the toll of crime and destruction.

It turns out that enough illegal immigrants have either fled the U.S. or been deported that officials in the Mexican state of Sonora, which shares an extensive border with Arizona, have complained that too many of their fellow countrymen have returned. They miss the remittances sent from the U.S. as well as smaller class sizes in local schools.

Mexican government officials knew Arizona’s tough employment verification law would become their worst nightmare, which explains why they tried blocking it. Earlier this year a delegation of nine legislators from Sonora toured Tucson and held a news conference to say that their beloved state cannot handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools resulting from illegal Mexican workers returning home.

One baffled Mexican legislator, Leticia Amparano Gamez, asked in Spanish “how can they pass a law like this?” She went on to explain that Mexico is not prepared for the “tremendous problems” it will face as more and more Mexicans working in Arizona and sending money to their families return to hometowns in Sonora without jobs. Another member of the Mexican delegation, Representative Florencio Diaz Armenta, asked “what do we do with the repatriated?”

=============

MEMO TO MEXICO: We could care less what you do with repatriates. They're your problem. Too bad you're not "prepared" to handle it---maybe if you people weren't so corrupt you'd stop creating indigents and tossing them over the border to extort American taxpayers.

Heh. He's physiologically incapable of actually "seeing" ANYthing that doesn't have a few pesos wrapped around it, first.

MEMO TO MEXICO: We could care less what you do

End of sentence. End of paragraph. End of story. NEXT -- !!! ;)

McCain is the author of the twice-filed Senate amnesty bill. On the campaign trail, McCain has anyone that asks him about illegal immigration ejected. He refuses to answer any questions about his support for the Mexican government and for reconquista of the western US.

McCain's all puckered up, on his knees, sucking up to illegals like a dry drunk with his mouth glued to a beer keg.

Significantly, McCain chose a dual-loyalty traitor to be his "Hispanic Outreach Director." McCain said he chose Hernandez because he AGREES with his positions.

Juan Hernandez was born in Dallas and decided as an adult to become a dual-national Mexican citizen. His last verifiable job was serving in Mexican President Vicente Fox's cabinet as Fox's "American Reconquista Director." Hernandez then worked for Bush hater George Soros' international foundations---(one such foundation published Hernendez's book that taunts Americans).

Hernandez believes all illegal Mexicans and Mexican-Americans in the USA should become dual citizens and consider themselves Mexicans first, "to the 8th generation." The "New American Pioneers" proclaimed in his book are the illegal alien invaders he urges to become settlers in the USA for "Reconquista"---the plan to take back the SW.

Juan McC is Mexico's "favorite son candidate"....the Reconquista warrior.....the one to get it done for ol' Mehico.

Reconquista (translated from the Spanish) means "undermining US sovereignty for El Takeover."

These reconquista jerks are masters at media manipulation and propaganda and are winning the propaganda war........crying "victim" certainly helps.

The Mexican government coaches their citizens well before helping them over the border. Illegals are well-trained to dupe the gringos: " We come to US to get better life, to do jobs Americanos won't do."

With info we now have, clearly these are propagandaists, spreading hatred of America and Americans, enemy agents in collusion with foreign governments. The goal is to undermine the US government in preparation for El Takeover.

Keep in mind, Mexico's govt policy WRT persons they don't want in their country is to declare them "person non grata."

CASE IN POINT: At a party in Acapulco, Frank Sinatra made a play for a top politican's mistress---Sinatra owned a home in the Los Brisas area at the time----but he was thrown out, declared persona non grata, ordered to stay out forever. The official reason was that Sinatra had poked fun at quickie Mexican divorces in his film Marriage on the Rocks (Sinatra had in fact divorced Ava Gardner in Mexico).

If they came here illegally..

or came with a visa and the visa ran out but they are still here...

Then they are illegal aliens...

Not immigrants ...

This has nothing to do with immigration...

and everything to do with breaking our sovereign laws..

If they are illegal aliens

and if the US government decides to forgive their crimes of coming here illegally,

and staying here illegally...

THAT IS AMNESTY

Listen up, Senor Juan. "Saying" you will name conservative judges is chump change compared to what you MUST to do to court conservatives. These are our terms.

We demand Juan name conservatives with proven credentials to top positions in his campaign.

Juan must lose Hernandez, the Azatlan sucker attached to his campaign.

Juan MUST denounce Reconquista NOW in all print and brodcast media venues.

Then we'll talk.

What the Dhimms get done is very, very hard to get undone. Look how long we’ve been working on abortion.

I was not going to get involved in this but I'm sorry, I can't let this one go by. The only time we had a chance in my lifetime to roll back the libs was with the Constitutional Option regarding judicial filibusters. We had the votes and after we won we would have placed dozens upon dozens of conservative judges on the bench. But McCain, with his gang of 14, destroyed the opportunity by forming an alliance with democrats. When the issue is abortion and you think you finally have the votes to save the unborn, McCain or one of his surrogates will knife you in the back. We'll see then how you like it. BTW conservative judges are how we are going to correct the abomination of national abortion, throwing the issue back to the states where it belongs. So in a way your guy has already stabbed you in the back. And he did not do everything possible to save the Republic, so in your own words screw him.

In politics, perception is everything. McCain better understand how he is being perceived due to his alliance with Hernadez, or he's toast. Notice that Reconquista never comes up in Juan McCain’s campaigning.........but if he wins, it will be at the top of his agenda. Count on it.

Cindy McCain’s company, Hensley Distributors (whose tax returns she refuses to divulge---McC's oldest son works there, it's where McCain got started), is the Anheuser-Busch beer distributor. Some of An/Busch donations are noteworthy. McCain has never discussed his and his wife's monetary support via An/Busch for these amnesty-agitators.

“On national defense,”

Both candidates are open borders amnesty types. You can’t have national defense if you REFUSE to secure your borders.

“on taxes”

McBackstabber voted against the Bush tax cuts USING LEFTY LINGO, “tax cuts for the wealthy.” No, I don’t care what lie he is telling you now.

“on judges.”

With a Dim Senate? Juan will give you only judges that Ted Kennedy approves of.

See? No difference.
