Hello, who do you think was pushing what did get thru the House in December ? Who do you think was instrumental in pushing thru the amendment for the border fence ? Did you read the interview ? He very specifically said that there were laws on the books NOW that could help stop the flood, but we aren't using them, and what's the use of passing more if the ones already there don't get enforced.
Why don't you help get people elected to Congress and the Presidency who want to stop illegal immigration instead of the RINOs we vote for now ? Why don't you support the types of politicians who will vote to enforce the existing laws and pass new ones to stop the invasion ? Do you give money to help them get elected, or volunteer in their campaigns ?
Maybe you do, but please don't slam one of the very few Congresscritters who is trying to get something done.
Tom Tancredo, Colorado Republican and chairman of the Congressional Immigration Reform Caucus pointed out. "Their amnesty plan was dead on arrival when they sent it to the Congress in January, and if they send the same pig with lipstick back to Congress next January, it will suffer the same fate," he announced.
President Bush's plan to ease immigration laws is dead on arrival in Congress, doomed by opposition from Republicans who think it goes too far and Democrats who think it doesn't go far enough.
It was an absolute flop, said Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-Colo., an outspoken opponent of the president's plan. His proposal is going nowhere. Even those who are sympathetic to Bush's approach agree that it won't pass Congress this year.
Time to stop beating the horse already...it's dead, Jim.
