Do you have that heavy headed feeling this morning? Like the one you may have experienced after a little too much to drink the night before……

[...] John McCain will never get my vote for anything. Two reasons why are here and here. [...]

And this, if you havent read all of “DeMint Lists “Top Ten Reasons to Oppose the Senate Amnesty Bill”
# 8 is unreal, Senator OSAMA OBAMA brings us this:
The Senate approved an amendment by Senator Obama extending Davis-Bacon “prevailing wage” provisions for guest workers, but not American citizens, in all occupations covered by Davis-Bacon (currently limited to federally paid work). Small businesses would be forced to pay inflated wages to guest workers above the pay American citizens receive for performing the same work. WHAT THE F? damn nuckfutters!
You should read all 10 of these. MM has them as well.
I’ll watch the video now, just before I list my business for sale.

Mr McCain is indeed scary. However the whole thing is scary. They basically are passing unlimited immigration into the US. No caps on this. No caps on that. Do they really believe the crap that they spout?

Mr Shooter says:
“They want 650,000 new immigrants. OK. We have at least 20 countries with people that want to come to America, right?”

You need to watch the video. 650,000 is just for one category! What they are really advocating and saying is “all in, all in, free”

OK Lest give them a FAIR number. They want 650,000 new immigrants. OK. We have at least 20 countries with people that want to come to America, right? So, 650,000 divided by 20 (probably more) is 32,500. OK, Mexico you can send us 32,500 annualy to the US. Hell, we’ll double it, you are our neighbor after all. So Mexico gets to send us 65,000 immigrants every year. TOTAL. That allows all countries and peoples, who wish to participate in this melting pot, to participate, FAIRLY.
Maybe this way we could even keep some highly trained scientists, IT techs, doctors, nurses, etc. How much fruit can one need? As LA Mayor would say, they’re just lettuce pickers. Yeah, millions of them.

Immigration Debate Gone Crazy…

This immigration debate currently going on in the Senate is looking more like a three ring circus than anything else.

Sen. John McCain of Arizona says it’s “un-American to be selective about whom we let into this country.”

What we have is Anarchy.

Where does it say in the US Constitution that the Senate is the employment agency for Mexico?

They are giving college to Illegal Aliens, earned income tax credit, welfare benefits and list goes on and on.

They care more about Illegals than they do about 280 million US Citizens that are going to have to cough up $500 million dollars in the next 10 years.

80-90% of US citizens want our borders enforced and they are doing nothing, I repeat nothing to secure the borders and fine employers for violating our laws.

These Traitors should be impeached for violating their solemn oath to the Constitution and the American people.

These seditious criminals are giving the American People the middle finger and mooning us at the same time.

Another nail next to Martinez. Grr.

At this point, I’d rather elect illegal aliens to congress, at least then we wouldn’t have a lame duck trying to pass himself/herself off as a lion.

Why do I feel that all Americans that have been true citizens longer than 5 years, 10 years, hell 100 years, have less say in these current matters than any alien being anywhere in the world.
1 or 2 Mexicans in Tijuana get more respect from my government than I do. 1 or 2 hatefilled Muslim murderers in Gitmo get more respect/ attention than Michelle M does.
It has become a reality, the oposition to our founders view of democracy has invaded the inner core of America and is taking the lead on this race for humanity.

I guess McCain is so desperate to be President he will sell the country down the river to gain approval from the MSM & their fellow travelers.
Note to Senator McCain- keep this up and there won’t be a country to be President of. Sheesh.

I’m hearing George Allen’s name pop up quite a bit in the private political debates. But not in the mainstream of public discussion. Hmm…

One of the more interresting angles to the Amnest Bill is that after an Illegal files his tax return for the three year period and pays his so called taxes(sure), he will be eligible for the EarnedI ncome Tax Credit. About $4,500 per individual on the return. We will rewarding these illegals with hard cash. This beyond strange. Our Senate is a pack of whores.

Shmo, she might be smart but I don’t see Mrs. Clinton on the list of the “Yes” votes for this amendment.

The House might save us from the monstrousity which the ‘comprehensive’ immigration bill is.

The majority is two-stepping this monster of a challenge. The Senate (not so threatened this fall) is playing to the employers and taking the ‘higher cultural/intellectual and elitist road’

The House (very threatened this fall and receiving thousands of bricks, literally, in the mail – they can’t be deleted or shredded – http://www.send-a-brick.com ) are getting it. Nothing might be done this year, which is better than the Senate’s idiosyncracy.

Half the old farts in the Senate are obviously senile. Just go sit in the senate gallery some time for a vote and see just how old and wiped out many of them are. In their mind’s eye, this is about Ellis Island not Laredo Texas.

When you can’t back up your argument with facts, play the race/victim card. This used to be a tactic employed exclusivly by the left. McCain appears to have learned well from Team Lefty and has become quite adept at playing it.

Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson couldn’t have done better.

Also, McCains comments about Europe are horribly misleading, nearly ever example he cites (riots etc) can be tied directly to Muslim immigrants who by law in France have not been allowed to assimilate. McCain seems to think that everyone who comes here wants to assimlilate, perhaps he should visit Santa Ana, CA sometime.

Indeed, it’s not just McCain, but McCain is the media whore. McCain is the one touted by the MsM as the Republican ideal. McCain, of McCain-Feingold fame, has shown virtually no interest in upholding the Constitution he swore to defend (and defended heroically in another life). So although 21 others sold out, it begins and ends with McCain.

Notice, all you fine people from Virginia how our 2 senators voted.
Warner (R-VA), Nay
Allen (R-VA), Yea
That’s right, Warner voted with the illegal alien lobby AGAIN to not cap the number of guest workers. This clown has gotta go. He will vote for the overall bill. Also note George Allen consistently voting against the madness of the Senate. Could he be an emerging Presedential candidate?

It’s nice to know that a cap passed but my joy is tempered by the fact that the cap is larger than the city of Boston.

McCain looked like the whiny liberal. All he was doing was creating sound bites for himself. His freaking argument was against himself. He is a stupid jerk!

These guys are making me sick. They are making a mockery of our sovereignty. They are beating this horse so much we are starting to be desensitized. We are talking about granting our most prized possession (citizenship) to ILLEGAL ALIENS. They are not coming here to live out the American dream. They don’t assimilate. They don’t learn the language. They don’t pay taxes. They steal citizen’s identity. They demand our respect but show none to us.

These Washington A-holes are trying to turn the United States into Americanadexico. They are trying to remove our borders for their own power. They are selling us out for the love of money.

To pick between McCain and Hillary is as if to have to choose between gonnorhea and syphillus (and with either one, you get it the same way!)
