That's exactly what I was thinking. Tancredo only attacks republicans.
Tancredo is just a sniper in the trees, pretending to shoot at illegals, but really shooting at Republicans.
What is your solution?
Cannon wants to extend the benefits of citizenship to illegal aliens and the children of illegal aliens. Meanwhile other potential immigrants abide by the rules and wait patiently for their chance. Don't you think that's unjust? You don't think Republican Cannon ought to be "attacked" for perpetuating that injustice? Do you think he should be praised for encouraging and rewarding instead? By what principle does that make sense?

There's no injustice or justice about it. It's just a fact.
Like I said, Tancredo only attacks republicans, that ought to make anyone with two brain cells go hmmmmmmm.
I am not splitting hairs.
I am not attempting to spin anything. I have stated facts.
You lied when you posted to judgeandjury that a sub-contractor "admitted the illegal were there." I believe that others appreciated the article I posted from the Rocky Mountain News that demonstrated your claim about a supposed comment by the sub-contractor was a lie. It doesn't matter to me how many people read that article. I am happy to have acquired knowledge through my research that enabled me to know that your claim about a supposed comment by the sub-contractor was a lie.
The only proof the left-wing, anti-Republican Denver Post upon which you rely appears to have that illegal aliens helped remodel Cong. Tancredo's home is the word of two (2) illegal aliens. You cannot provide a single story from any media source that quotes Cong. Tancredo as admitting that illegal aliens helped remodel his house.
I'm sure that some people will continue to use the Denver Post story against Cong. Tancredo, including some who hate Cong. Tancredo so much that they must resort to lies to make their points. In the 2004 election, a 527 group paid for a radio ad attacking Cong. Tancredo in which a woman accuses him of using cheap, illegal labor to remodel his home. The woman gave her name and the name of the town in which she lived. Both were a lie, just like you claim of the sub-contractor admitting "the illegals were there." In spite of the attack ad, Cong. Tancredo easily defeated his Demcoratic opponent. The article is below:
Tancredo now in cross hairs of attack ads
By Gabrielle Crist, Rocky Mountain News
October 13, 2004
The group attacking U.S. Rep. Marilyn Musgrave in television ads is now on the hunt for Rep. Tom Tancredo - with a radio ad that began airing Wednesday.
In the ad, a woman is typing a letter to Tancredo. Then the narrator says:

"My husband and I work hard to teach our children the values of acceptance and the evils of racism, which is why we're so disappointed in your conduct.
"You make a career of trying to punish immigrant workers, then turn around and use cheap, illegal labor to remodel your home. It's insulting to us all."
The reference to illegal labor is based on a 2002 allegation that Tancredo's remodeling contractor hired illegal immigrants to complete work on Tancredo's home.
The contractor denied the allegation.
The woman then gives her name and notes she is from Greenwood Village.
Tancredo's campaign manager, Dave Pearson, said there are several problems with the ad. For starters, he said, there is no such woman in Greenwood Village and no active voter registration for anyone under that name.
Beyond that, he said, Tancredo is not a racist.
"The congressman is in favor of strengthening our borders and eliminating illegal immigration," Pearson said. "There is nothing racist or biased in that."
The ads were paid for by a 527 committee, an independent political group that raises money to promote candidates or issues. The committee, called Coloradans for Plain Talk, used to operate under the name Colorado Families First.
It is led by three wealthy Democrats: Jared Polis, Tim Gilland and Pat Stryker.
Last month, the group began airing two controversial anti-Musgrave television ads. The first showed a Musgrave look-alike stealing a watch from a corpse and referred to the Republican congresswoman's vote against barring nursing homes from charging fees after a patient has died.
The second ad featured a Musgrave look-alike picking the pocket of a soldier and referred to her vote to cut veterans' benefits in a preliminary vote in March. Full benefits and a significant funding increase were added in the final budget bill in July, which Musgrave supported.
Some politicos predicted that the Musgrave ads were so harsh they would hurt her Democratic opponent, Stan Matsunaka.
In light of your dislike of Cong. Tancredo and your claim "he comes off wishy-washy, almost feminine," please state what Republican you desire to see capture the 2008 Republican presidential nomination.
Do you believe this nation's borders are secure? If not, how do you propose to secure them?
Do you agree with Majority Leader Delay's comments about illegal aliens that he made last Thusday night? Here is a link to an article about those comments: http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/politics/3297425 .
Cong. Cannon supports giving in-state tuition to illegal aliens. Do you support giving in-state tuition to illegal aliens?
Yes, the reporting paper is liberal, but they are not above the law. If Tanc could prove the newspaper article to be false, he would. He can't!
This is a reality that the kooks can't accept.
What is politically feasible?
The are 3 guest worker bills currently in congress.
In 500 words or less, name the one that you support and why you support it. Also define the reasons that you are opposed to the other two.
Tanc/Buch 2008
Absolutely not.
Cannon's crime was being an original co-sponser of AgJobs.
When Delay, Gingrich, and other pubs went after Tanc for breaking the 11th commandment, Bay Buchanan stepped forward and said that Tanc had noting to do with it. Tanc gave the PAC to her and Pat. Ignore the fact that Tanc's name is used on PAC literature and Tanc actively raises money for the PAC.
Hey, if that's your choice for 2008, so be it.
