Extracurricular Politics

Scarier than Falwell. The new immigration wars. McCain-Feingold redux. Rudy redone. Resisting the Hillyer Doctrine. Plus much more.

(Page 6 of 18)

Stick a fork in McCain and good riddance. I hope Giuliani and Romney are close behind him. If the conservatives don't wake up and put a screeching halt to this madness, the Democrats are going to add around 20 million voters to their voter base and the USA will become a one party political system -- socialism.

p>As one who has lived in Mexico, I can tell you that Jorge's assertion that "family values don't stop at the border" is a crock of ordure. Mexico is a cultural train wreck and the lowest educated and skilled are coming here as a monster burden to the American taxpayer. Jorge Bush is either ignorant or insane or both. He and others denying this is amnesty is an extreme insult to even an average intelligence. br> -- Royce Stanton br> Nuevo Orleans /p>

Does the bill give amnesty for illegal immigrants? Of course.

Does the bill invite, present or perpetuate security problems for our country? Yes.

Will there be much enforcement of anything pertaining to the bill or our sieve-like borders? No.

p>And though it's cloaked in economic terms, doesn't the bill really just make legal a huge voting bloc that each major political party will move heaven and earth to recruit? Absolutely. br> -- C. Kenna Amos br> Princeton, West Virginia /p>

Once again, we return to the question that has haunted this land since 1986: should a president and Congress agree to an amnesty for illegal aliens that will assure us that, instead of ending the endless flow of Third World denizens across our borders, guarantee its exponential growth? For it is as simple as night follows day: to reward law breaking with amnesty is to assure, unquestionably, more law breaking.
