  1. So if America were invaded and conquered by by some stronger power and occupied, killing whites by the millions, you would be fine with it.

    Nice to know where your principles are...

  2. Even the unstated argument that we need amnesty to save social security is a lie. Bush is finalizing a thus-far secret "Equalization Agreement" with his masters in mexico that will require SS to pay hundreds of billions to mexicans who supposedly worked here illegally and paid into the system. So some illegal sneaks in here, mows lawns for a couple of years, and his entire family back home is suddenly the responsibility of the US taxpayers. Thanks a lot, Mr. President.

    Bush Takes On Opponents of Immigration Deal
    By JIM RUTENBERG
    GLYNCO, Ga., May 29 — President Bush today accused opponents of his proposed immigration measure of fear-mongering to defeat it in Congress, and took on his own conservative political base as he did so.

    “If you want to scare the American people, what you say is the bill’s an amnesty bill,” Mr. Bush said this afternoon at a training center for border enforcement agents located in this town in Georgia’s southeastern corner. “That’s empty political rhetoric, trying to frighten our citizens.”

    The president used some of his toughest language yet as he began an effort to build support for the bill in the Senate. The measure hews closely to his long-sought goal of a new immigration system with three components: tighter seals on the nation’s borders, a guest-worker system for noncitizens who want to work here, and a path to citizenship for some 12 million illegal immigrants already in the country.

    The bill, the product of a compromise struck by Republican and Democratic leaders two weeks ago, has encountered stiff resistance from the left and right. Liberal opposition taking aim at the proposal for shifting the system for awarding permanent residence status to give more weight to education and skills and less to family reunification, while conservatives have derided the plan for allowing illegal aliens to legalize their status.

    It was the conservative opponents whom Mr. Bush seemed to address most forcefully in his remarks here today — a rare example of the president crossing swords with key members of the political coalition that helped him attain the Oval Office and then keep it four years later: The same conservative radio hosts, writers, bloggers, and legislators who killed an attempt at compromise immigration legislation last year.

    Mr. Bush’s address came just as lawmakers have returned to their districts for a 10-day break from Washington to hear directly from constituents. It was during the late-spring recess last year that opponents of a similar bill barraged their Congressional representatives with complaints, especially about provisions they said amounted to amnesty for illegal aliens.

    Then, with Congressional elections looming in the fall and his own party at risk of losing its majority, the president retreated.

    But this year is an off year, electorally, and Mr. Bush appears determined to head off a similar outcome this time. In his remarks at the training facility here, he said that the bill includes strong measures to improve border security, and that it was now time to alleviate the pressure on the border by creating what he calls a new “rationalized” system.

    “People in Congress need the courage to go back to their districts and explain exactly what this bill is all about,” Mr. Bush said. “The fundamental question is, will elected officials have the courage necessary to put a comprehensive immigration plan in place that makes it more likely we can enforce our border and, at the same time, uphold the great traditions of —— immigrant traditions of the United States of America.”

    Mr. Bush’s address, given under a blazing Georgia sun before several hundred border enforcement agents and trainees, was the latest and most visible in a series of administration efforts to beat back critics, who administration officials say are misrepresenting the bill to the public.

    In recent weeks, officials have given dozens of interviews on the subject to radio programs, editorial boards and newspaper reporters around the country.

    But Mr. Bush and his allies on Capitol Hill are at a significant rhetorical disadvantage: conservative opponents can capture their objection to the bill in a single word — amnesty — while supporters are forced into the complex weeds of policy and the nuances of legislative language.

  5. The horrible reality is that unless opponents of this amnesty bill take to the streets by the hundreds of thousands, it will pass the Senate, probably next week, with 59 or 60 votes. I think all Dem's will support selling out our country, with an eye towards the 70% democrat hispanic vote. At least 7 or 8 republicans in name only will backstab us, probably, Sens. McCain (of course), his clones Hagel and Graham, Martinez, traitor Kyl, Spector and the Maine morons, Collins and Snowe. I have no idea what happens in the House, but Pelosi has demanded that a significant number of republicans support it to give her side cover.

    While these republicans should be run out of town on a rail, the problem is the democrats are even worse. They object to this bill as not being friendly enough to illegals. They object to the provisions that would give more weight to education and skills and less to family ties in legal immigration. A lot of Republicans have written off the 2008 presidential election as hopeless, and are banking that republican voters will have forgotten their treachery by the next election. Sadly, they may be correct. They know that once these immigrants are in, it will be damn tough to get them out. Get used to the idea of your town becoming east LA.

    Mexicans can be disgusting. They can be really sweet people for the most part but on the other hand they have a shitty attitude. They don't get it at first in the US sometimes that the laws like zoning ordinances or health ordinances actually can be enforced.

    I know south americans that can't stand Mexicans for the attitude. Around the LA area when it became overrun with Mexicans the spray paint was so bad the place looked like a war zone. Going out and spraying your mark on somebody elses property and defacing it is nothing but a shitty attitude problem. They are ethnocentric pretty much. I worked for one recently, he was supposedly an engineer but he spent all day in meetings promising the sky to everybody that pressured him. He considered his people to be an oppressed minority and he hired/promoted Mexicans nearly 100%. I made the mistake of getting down to business and finding technical problems in his department and fixing them, that was it, I was out. It was politically incorrect to prove that the guys that came in at night and slept their whole shift could be making technical mistakes so I was out. No biggie to me, that's why I always worked on the trading stuff.

  8. Heck, Mexicans aren't the only managers like this. It is epidemic in corporate America. If you question things and raise doubt they get rid of you and replace you with a cheerleading fembot or a dimwitted yesman.

  9. Would you have the stomach to personally pump unarmed migrant families full of lead as they try to cross the border? I didn't think so.

    This nation's borders can be secured just fine, without us resorting to murder.
