There's been a distinct increase in the talk-traffic about this issue within the last month. The transition was almost overnight. Like you said, someone got a serious eyeful of a ratings winner.
I have always said that in my next lifetime I am coming back as an illegal alien so I can break laws and get all the freebies while dumb Americans pay for it.
We need a strong President that will enforce our existing laws and quotas instead of Bush.
There I go dreaming again!!
Since Hatch is a Mormon and follows the Church's instructions to store a year's worth of food (to cope with the famines that the Church prophesizes are heading for this country) -- I hope he is happy when those awful days come to pass and his children and grandchildren are forced to stand in long lines and compete with all these illegals for for their daily ration of bread and water. He can take comfort in that he had a hand in their suffering.
"God-fearing" politicians like Bush and Hatch are going to have to answer for their deeds on Judgment Day...sadly, all of us have to live in the here and now with the consequences of their corrupt actions.
(No Answers, No Taxes) by Robert L. Schulz, Chairman, We The People Congress
Presented at Freedom Drive 2002, The National Mall, Washington DC November 14, 2002
Acknowledgement: Bob Schulz wishes to acknowledge and thank Anthony Hargis for his fine research paper, "The Lost Right, Redress of Grievances." (undated). Bob's speech draws heavily on that research and the underlying documents.
The founding fathers, in an act of the Continental Congress in 1774, said, "If money is wanted by Rulers who have in any manner oppressed the People, [the People] may retain [their money] until their grievances are redressed, and thus peaceably procure relief, without trusting to despised petitions or disturbing the public tranquility."
This very American Right of Redress of Grievances Before Taxes is deeply embedded in our law.
The founding fathers could hardly have used words more clear when they declared, "the people . . . may retain [their money] until their grievances are [remedied]."
By these words, the founding fathers fully recognized and clearly stated: that the Right of Redress of Grievances includes the right of Redress Before payment of Taxes, that this Right of Redress Before Taxes lies in the hands of the People, that this Right is the People's non-violent, peaceful means to procuring a remedy to their grievances without having depend on -- or place their trust in -- the government's willingness to respond to the People's petitions and without having to resort to violence.
Before going further, I'd like to clarify two points: first, the question we are dealing with here is not whether the government has the power to tax, but whether the government is abusing its constitutionally limited power to tax; and second, there is the question of whether the government is using the tax revenue to effect other abuses of its authority.
The founding fathers were well acquainted with the fact that government is the enemy of Freedom, that those wielding governmental power despise petitions from the People; the representatives of the People, in a popular assembly, seem sometimes to fancy that they are the People themselves and exhibit strong symptoms of impatience and disgust at the least sign of opposition from any quarter.
The founding fathers knew that it was possible for the institutions of the Congress, the Executive and the Courts to someday begin to fail in their duty to protect the people from tyranny. They knew that unless the People had the right to withhold their money from the government their grievances might fall on deaf ears and Liberty would give way to tyranny, despotism and involuntary servitude.
The First Amendment to the United States Constitution states clearly and unambiguously, "Congress shall make NO law . . . abridging . . . the right of the people . . . to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
While some Rights are reserved with qualifications . . . (continued)
This is a real eye opener!
As long as the govenment continues to keep the doors and windows wide open to our house, there will be no Home Land Security....

I doubt if many of these students are alone here in the US. They probably live with at least 1 illegal parent. Maybe there are are 2 illegal parents, maybe 1 or more illegal siblings and maybe illegal relatives. What does Hatch propose to do about them?
If the student gets in-statue tuition breaks and lawful residency upon graduation, what happens to these relatives? I doubt if Hatch is for deporting them, even though they probably are illegal and are not the ones graduating from high school. In effect this will be an amnesty for anyone who has a kid in school, because of course, "you cannot split up the family".
Before going to them though I always try and have an empty stomach.
That is THE POINT. It is precisely this kind of gross appeasement that acts as a Magnet for MORE Illegal Immigration. The folks South of the Border know what is going on. When they hear that many states in America, backed by our Federal Government, are allowing Illegal Aliens In-State Tuition Breaks and a fast track to American Citizenship they naturally respond with their feet just like they do with our Amnesties and other give aways.
At a time when America is being invaded by thousands of Illegal Aliens every day and rogue Muslim Terrorist Groups are desperately trying to infiltrate our country so they can visit more Horrors like 9/11 on America we have so-called Conservatives like Hatch that are creating YET MORE incentives for foreign nationals to break our laws, destroy our sovereignty and degrade our national security. This is just absolutely Mind Boggling.
It's interesting how these "Jokes" rise to top in the GOP.
Thanks for the info. Yes, let's hope this guy sees some serious competition in the next primary.
