I have supported Pres. Bush on the Iraq issue all along. Personally, I find the border issue more important than Iraq. It is also more of a threat to the survival of this country. Too bad our elected leaders lack the guts to deal with it.

You'll have to forgive Dane, Porkchops. He hates conservatives like tancredo, who got a 100 rating from the ACU in 2004 and have a lifetime rating of 98.

You see, dane has a few heros of his own, watch this vid clip to see his pro-illegal brothers in action


Listen to and watch the pro-illegal immigrant protesters yell things like:
"DEATH TO THE READNECKS"...
"Zarqawi is a GREAT GRINGO KILLER!", "INTIFADA!", "You stole this land!", etc.
This is a wake-up call, folks...

Richardson looks too much like actor Oliver Platt to ever be elected president.

I don't think you will ever see another Bush elected President.

We should have learned our lesson after that "read my lips" crap.

"Actually any immigration reform has to go through Congress, but it is so much easier for you to pop off with knee jerk slogans."

What has to go through Congress? You mean like the immigration laws that are already on the books and are not being enforced by the nation's president?

Let's try enforcing those before you worry about putting anything else through Congress.

These un-documented border hoppers are just here to do the jobs Americans refuse to do ( or is it jobs Americans wont hire other Americans to do because they would be reported for unsafe working conditions maybe?)

So you are saying bill richardson is not fond of the UN and was not a Chinagate figure. Okay, going through the looking glass again.

And also pat buchanan's co-idealougue, bay buchanan, runs tancredo's PAC.

From the article:
However, the numbers of illegal immigrants from such countries [Pakistan, Iran, Jordan, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, etc.] are raising questions about the adequacy and consistency of US border protection. ''I think there's a lack of urgency about this in the White House and Congress," said Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, a nonpartisan think tank based in Washington. ''This has the potential to be a really big deal, and there's going to be political hell to pay."

Culberson, the Houston Republican, went further. ''Any day now, we will confront massive truck-bomb explosions in our major cities and catastrophic loss of life inflicted by Middle Eastern terrorists who will laugh at us that they had simply walked across our border and we let them do it," he said.

President Bush, you've worked a lifetime to get where you are today. Is throwing all that away because you ignored this growing problem really worth it?

"...We should have learned our lesson after that "read my lips" crap..."

GW almost had a place in history with his war on terror. Yet he will be remembered for giving away our America to illegals to help his rich buddies. People are waking up and taking a look at the local street corner and asking what the heck happened? Why are we overrun by illegals? Do you think the average American knows the real facts on II such as birthrate, percentages in our prisons, etc? I don't think so.

I think, actually, it's more to do with wages and benefits or, rather, the desire not to pay so much for them. I mean... a federal government that doesn't care if illegals are working for you in violation of US law sure isn't going to worry about "working conditions."

Dane displays his stupidity once again. What part of "YOUR NEW HERO" did you miss? Are you just too dishonest to own up to your lies, like the ones you told in this post

Now that libs Richardson and Napolitano have raised the alarm, as most of us have been for a long time, the MSM and the Rat party feel free to begin talking out loud about how bad the problem is. What you are seeing is just the beginning as the Democrats think they have a winner here. They do, of course, as their MSM buddies help spread the word. But for all their hype they have no real solutions, as for the two of them it's all about re-election and both have long histories of taking pro-illegal alien actions during the past couple of years, including benefits for aliens, drivers licenses, didn't ask/don't tell for LEO, etc. The longer the Bush administration refuses to face up to the real problem of overwhelming numbers coming across the border for work, crime or mayhem, the hard it will be for them to regain the high ground in this debate.

I am glad I saw this thread. I needed a good laugh. You are actually calling someone a liar. You would not know the truth if it bit you on your BVDs.

If they have to break the law to conduct their business, then maybe they are evil.

This is for a very clear reason. They are readying Jeb Bush and then George P. Bush. Bush is keying on large spanish speaking states and thus doesn't want to offend potential voters.

Stopping and holding non-Spanish speaking OTM's, such as Syrians, Iranians, Saudis, etc, would offend those Spanish speaking voters in what way? Hmm?
