We're only losing north of 600,000 jobs a month, there's plenty of room to flood the labour market and depress wages!

Written at midnight and passed by 6 am in the morning, unread, unwritten....Obama can fill in the details later, it was too important for actual scrutiny.

Why is it I feel thats how it will happen.

Look at all these traitor Arizona Republicans, and they didn’t even need to interview the King Traitor, McCain.

12 million new Democratic voters! You betcha they are drooling for that. With 12 million new voters, the Democrats can screw up all they like and still win in landslides.

The demotards are just drunk with their power and arrogance. It will ultimately be there downfall.

We just have to remember NEVER try to work with them again. Once we have destroy their power we need to make sure they never get in power again.

despite the risk that it could prove politically destructive for their party.

If multi trillion dollar deficits, multiple crooked cabinet members, unprecedented power grabs, bailouts of every incompetent Wall Street organization, a new AWB, cap and trade which will cost EVERY US household an average of $1800 a year, rising unemployment, and socialized medicine don't do it, nothing will.

“That’s not what you do in an election year,” Flake said. “You’ve got to do it in an off-year.”

Yet you say you'll get behind such legislation.

Would you consider this an example of discharging your duties as the peoples' representative in a straightforward and honest manner, Flake?

Easier to stop the legislation with Obama in the WH than McCain, with JSM, the GOP would get the blame even though The Democrats control Congress.

Governor Palin and/or Governor Jindal should call a press conference and specifically ask “Which of the representatives voting ‘yes’ actually read the entire bill?” and the obvious “Why would we want to do this when unemployment is rising among American citizens?”

I believe you’re correct. Between the democrats, who know how they’ll benefit from any normalization of illegals, and the ‘my party right or wrong’ republicans, such legislation would be a shoe-in.

“What I said was separating parents from their children — ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] raids that separate parents from their children in the middle of the night — are un-American, and I stand by that,” the Speaker reiterated last week.

Hey Queen Pelosi, if they’re separated it’s by choice. The whole family can go back to Mexico.

I wish someone in the GOP would show some leadership.

Am I the only one who is fighting mad?

Really, when does this nightmare end?

Bring it on Flake...no one is going to FORGET your RHINO role, on-year or off-year.

Let me see we are spending almost a trillion dollars to keep 3.5 mission jobs. Of course when you consider continuing the programs and interest it will be more like two trillion. then we are going to bring in 3 1/2 million legal immigrants. Now we are going to give amnesty to 12 mission so they can come out of the shadows and take the jobs of the rest of us.does anyone else think this is insane?

join www.numbersusa.com then make a fight.

I agree with your sentiment but the reason it hasn’t is the pain involved in these decisions have not got to us yet. IT will!!!
