Why is wanting the United States to be overrun with Latin Americans "standing for progress"? Do you really think we need more of the people who made Latin America what it is today?

What are you talking about a-hole? All the colonialists who made Latin America what it is today are dead!

You've got a point. All white europeans should stop breeding immediately.

This country would be so much better if all the racists left. just go - please.

And Steve, you are soooooo gullible for trusting bush. bush is a criminal - he's not my president. His policy is one of cheap labor for his corporate donors and you support this. Shame on you.

Steve, I just gotta ask:

How is sending the National Guard to patrol the border a good idea? Already depleted by Iraq, not having any relevant training, why is this a good idea? And of course, Chertoff specifically said it was stupid.

I know it might be popular initially, but really why does this make sense?

Am I missing something?

Thanks,

firstly Sam Knight, I wouldn't be too quick to give credit to Chertoff's opinion on anything. But in this case, he was right. It is stupid. But it is being done for politics - not policy, so it only has to fit the moment, not prove to be actually a sound decision for America. A one point gain for Bush in the polls is the desired outcome, not a sound immigration policy.

I find it interesting that you talk about a 55-40 vote without mentioning the party split

"In all, 36 Democrats and 18 Republicans joined with one independent to torpedo the amendment. Thirty-three Republicans and seven Democrats supported it."

You could have said, "Democrats come to the aid of Floundering Bush on Immigration."

Remember the Lieberman Principle:

You can do a lot of evil with a few Democrats and all but a few Republicans, you can do a lot of good with a few Republicans and all but a few Democrats.

Yeah the Iranians are going to attempt an invasion. Is Bendito Koko the gorilla's pen name perhaps?

"Troops on the border makes sense if you're planning on keeping the Iranians out."

Is this fucker for real?
