Future of migration accord in doubt after GOP victory in U.S. elections

It's good to see that dunce Roy out of the state house. In addition to the flag issue, he is a real gung-ho illegal alien cheerleader.

Marsha Blackburn won big in Tennessee after working hard to make sure illegal alien criminals didn't get their much sought after Tennessee driver's licenses, breeder documents that are a stepping stone to even more fraud committed by these arrogant squatters.

Tom Tancredo won big again in Colorado.

If Bush wants to win in 2004, it would be a good idea for him to tell that pest Vicente Fox and his Marxist side-kick Castaneda to shove off once and for all.... right before putting troops on our borders and ordering a mass round-up and deportation of all illegal aliens.

If you look at Mexican maps there are entire areas the size of Rhode Island with few roads and no cities of any size. Water would need to be brought up from the south to make the areas livable. Mexico is too primitive and corrupt a country to undertake such tasks.

Anybody else out there have some good G-2 intelligence, based on Babelfish/Alta Vista translating, of Spanish language liberal US Hispanic or Mexican-based press with analysis that shows they are in deep caca with the border situation since the country swung pro-America yesterday? I think it merits to see La Opinion in L.A. for example.

If there is any crying and licking of wounds and post-election strategizing in Espanol in the Hispanic press, please translate into 'American' and post on FR ASAP according so we can enjoy the internal conversation of the enemy, those who would destroy any last vestigate or portion of our national borders, and who would gladly throw one big borderless fiesta inviting everyone and his brother over, including terroristas and drug warlords and welfare cheats, into our Beloved Republic.

BTTT!!!!!!

The author has aptly described the situation. Fox has destroyed any feelings of goodwill between the US and Mexico. There is no reason for Bush to make any concessions for migrants.

Close the borders.

Have you driven around the southwest. Better yet, West Texas on I-10 east of El Paso? How about I-70 in Eastern Utah? How about I-94 in western North Dakota and eastern Montana?

[Reaganwuzthebest]

thanx for the ping...

You been hearing rumors about Chris Cannon taking over the Immigration Subcommittee in the House? If that happens, we can forget about any reform.

Guess we gotta start bugging Sensenbrenner to put in Elton Gallegly or Bill Jenkins. Cannon would be a disaster.

[mafree]

There has been talk about the Hispanic vote (much of it Mexican) helping GOP candidates in some key races last Tues. Do you think that may mute efforts of Bush to clamp down on illegal immigration?

[FreedomFriend]

Max Cleland was also an illegal alien cheerleader. He was booted, too.

Barnes was most likely going to give the illegals drivers licenses.

Cleland helped start a program of "Spanish-teaching" in the Dalton City Schools if my memory serves me correctly.

[Whilom]

Not until we get control of our borders, the INS, and the State Department Office of Consular Affairs will be make headway in the war on terrorism. The so-called "migrant accord" is a step backward, and a dangerous one.

[RLK]

I'm familiar with the Dakotas as they were 40 years ago because I lived in SD for a year. The rest of the places I have never been to and have no interest for me with the possible exception of Utah. From what I understand from Taxan friends, at one time it took 30 West Texas acres to support one cow.

He must export at least 2,000,000 people per year to the United States to break even , let alone solve his problems.

And he'll get huge political influence within the greatest nation on earth as a bonus.

[Reaganwuzthebest]

...that shows they are in deep caca with the border situation since the country swung pro-America yesterday?

The Mexican government sure is persistent aren't they?

They won't be deterred by our elections to keep pushing for amnesty, only actions by Bush like closing the border and deporting illegals will send them the message they need.

STRATEGY?

Perhaps the ONLY way to counter the Republican big business based interest LOBBYING in favor of porous borders and employment of illegal aliens (so far, resonant with Bush, Rove, Fleischer et. al. and all RINOs in office) is to show DIRECTLY how illegal Hispanic vote, encouraged by Hispanic newspapers, local election boards, radio, churches etc., tipped the scale in 2002 in close races and took seats away from Republicans to place them with Democrats. Kathleen Kennedy tried this tactic but they did not turn out in large enough numbers. Elsewhere, they may have.

We all remember of course Orange County some years ago and that fiasco.

You have to get to what is IN THE DIRECT INTEREST of Republican Politicians. Keeping their jobs and political power base is just as important and keeping the flow of pro-illegal immigration business contributions.

Freepers have some researching to do and must canvass the new Congress and the White House now, Congressman Tom Tancredo and his staff on the Hill could be the "command and control center" for this operation.

----------------------------

Bush will never do that and in a few more years it will be too late to do that.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Not if we conservatives, Asian-style, find the weak 'pressure points' and exploit it.

They are there, if we can only search, find and exploit.

I forgot to mention that the reference to working with the Democrats rather than Bush on this migrant workers agreement indicates that Tiny Tom and his cohorts have been working behind the scenes to undermine the Bush administration's diplomatic efforts with Mexico.

I wonder in what other regions the Democrats are negotiating their own diplomacy.
