Immigration

[Spinoza]

As our congressional whores......
Machinate madly at this moment to "put together" an "immigration bill" that over 60% of their combined electorate vehemently OPPOSE......
I feel the need to make a comment.

If America's current congess and administration decide to LEGALIZE 12 to 20 MILLION (OR MORE), ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS......
I shall welcome EVERY manjack of them to our melting pot shores, and wish them Christian God speed FOREVER AND ALWAYS.
And I shall do so with an understanding that no man can be rationally expected to do any less than his best to promote the future welfare of his personal family.

BUT......
HOWEVER......
And please feel free to bash me with a "BIG STICK" if you think I'm crazy......
I shall NEVER FORGIVE OR FORGET any sad excuse for a duly elected representative of LEGAL AMERICAN CITZENS......
Who VOTES to condone a rampant violation of past and current AMERICAN LAW......
At the obvious expense of our nation's most needy working/taxpaying families, whom they are equally sworn to protect and serve.

Again, we are in 100% agreement. Jeff Sessions sounded like a genius talking about all the bad in this bill. I'm happy it is dead and that GWB did not get what he wanted.

Cartek, I think most of us are...


By the way, did you see this:


The Senate voted 51-46 to reject a proposal by Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, to bar criminals -- including those ordered by judges to be deported -- from gaining legal status. Democrats siphoned support from Cornyn's proposal by winning adoption, 66-32, of a rival version that would bar a more limited set of criminals, including certain gang members and sex offenders, from gaining legalization.

Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, alone among his party's presidential aspirants in backing the immigration measure, opposed Cornyn's bid and backed the Democratic alternative offered by Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Massachusetts.


Why is the senate so brain dead?????

[CARTEK]

I wish for once they'd say what they really thought when speaking. For example, instead of calling Teddy Kennedy "my good friend the senior senator for Massachusetts"..."that lying, fat bastard from Massachusetts"...call 'em what they are!

I cannot speak for anyone else......
But I am personally ashamed that I KNEW NOT the implications of the 17th amendment prior to reading your most enlightening post.

No need to call me STUPID......
I'll call myself STUPID,
As I continue wonder what the relatively recent reality of American history COULD HAVE BEEN...... Without the 17th amendment.

I'm right there with ya Spinoza.

Ditto the rest of your post and 9701's as well.

"16th amendment, establishing a federal income tax, ratified the same year, "

repeal 16 too.

The IMMIGRATION/AMNESTY crap is back......

Can there be any doubt NOW that the democratic support for this bill is purely political......
With ABSOLUTELY NO CONCERN for the obvious interests of American citizens/taxpayers?

As CNN and FOX and MSNBC concern themselves with paris poppycock......
Only Lou Dobbs continues to beat the immigration drum AS LOUDLY AS POSSIBLE!

[TulsaDawg]

Lou Dobbs for President.

[Spinoza]

Lou Dobbs for President.

I'd be more than willing to vote for him TWICE...... :icon_wink: :icon_wink:

THREE CHEERS (and no ole) for OKLAHOMA......

News radio 78 Chicago had an item today about Oklahoma now refusung ALL government aid/services to ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS and going after ALL who in any manner aid and abet ANY ILLEGAL ALIEN...... By so much as giving them a ride in a legal vehicle.

Reportedly......
20,000 of these ILLEGAL parasites have already FLED Oklahoma for other states, like cockroaches exposed to the speed of legal light.

Sadly......
I was unable to watch Lou Dobbs tonight.
I'd appreciate reading any link with details of this Oklahoma effort.

Cheers to ALL LEGAL AMERICAN CITIZENS!

You guys catch Hillary's screw-up last night in the debates concerning illegal's obtaining driver's licenses? I know CNN is avoiding it but the rest of the media is surprisingly hitting on it along with her opponents. Hillary messed up BIG TIME! Catch it on youtube. She's even trying to play the female "poor women being ganged up on by 6 men" card.
