		<description>Aplogist:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Oh man, NAU, CAFTA, “globalist”…what next? Links to Pat “Jew baiter” Buchannan’s book? How about linking Bush’s amnesty and his attempts to “sell out America” to the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bildebergers, and Prisonplanet.com? If you can make that leap it’s not but a short skip to “Inside Job” territory.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

What is it with you free traders that are willing to sell out Americans in the name of a fast buck. I am astonished that you did not throw in that I am racist xenophobe like Fred Barnes does every time he insults the 80% of Americans that are sick and tired being sold out to the lowest bidder.

What we have is Anarchy. 

Where does it say in the US Constitution that the Senate is the employment agency for Mexico?  We do not need to import cheap slave labor, we need to promote manufacturing and restore America&#039;s industrial infrastructure. We need to stop the exodus of US companies leaving America and outsourcing American workers.

We need to stop selling out America&#039;s workers. They are giving college to Illegal Aliens, earned income tax credit, welfare benefits and list goes on and on. 

They Senate care more about Illegals than they do about 300 million US Citizens that are going to have to cough up $500 Billion dollars in the next 10 years for welfare benefits for criminals that broke our laws. 

The truth is, on March 23, 2005, President Bush met at his ranch in Crawford, Texas with Vicente Fox and Paul Martin (then PM of Canada) in what they called a Summit. The three heads of state then drove to Baylor University in Waco, where they issued a press release announcing their signing of an agreement to form the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP). 

This year, on March 31, 2006, Bush. Fox and new Canadian PM, Stephen Harper met in Cancun, Mexico. This time their press release celebrated what they called the first anniversary of the SPP aka The North American Union.

You can stick your head in the sand and believe that GWB is not trying to end run around the constitution by forming the SPP or NAU. What he is doing will destroy the middle class and will not create good paying jobs for Americans.

Since 2000, the U.S. manufacturing sector has lost 3 million jobs, as a result of NAFTA. We have not begun to feel the effects of CAFTA that GWB rammed down the throats of the RNC congressman that were bribed into voting yes.

Actually, rather than telling me that I have made the leap to Alex Jones website, maybe you should consider visiting GWB’s website that is in Spanish as well as English on the &lt;a href=&quot;http://spp.gov/press_releases.asp&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;SPP&lt;/a&gt;. It is not a conspiracy but you are welcome to stick your head in the sand and pretend it is not happening.</description>

		<description>honora, one of the main reasons why I respect you is your ability to be above the reaction of your peers in the last 5 years, right after your intellect.

Admit, that not in a million years will our side be able to come up with the intensity and hysterics of BDS your side has displayed and please stick to your de rigeur good argumentation points, without analyzing us too much. 

This side will never claim the elections were stolen. This side will be sad and frustrated but it won&#039;t get to the levels of KOS and the DU.

Sincerely,</description>

		<description>I must say I am always taken aback by the low threshold of frustration that some of the RW exhibit.  A country of 300MM people, sometimes things aren&#039;t gonna go your way folks.

I should be happy I guess, seeing the Reps going at each other like junkyard dogs, but it&#039;s actually a sad sight.  Here&#039;s a line of poetry that fits the situation:  &quot;...not with a bang but a whimper&quot;.</description>

		<description>Puritan1648,
&lt;blockquote&gt;…and, I *HATE* that poem.

It’s not that it’s a bad poem. It’s not very good. All metaphor, and a bit over-blown. What I despise is that it’s brought up, again and again, as some sort of justification for immigration. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

You know that line about &quot;I lift my lamp beside the golden door&quot;?

The golden door that she lifts her lamp beside is &lt;strong&gt;Ellis Island&lt;/strong&gt;, not whatever spot you happen to choose along the Rio Grande to stroll on in. 

Ladies, and especially Lady Liberty, don&#039;t support border violations.</description>

It won&#039;t be long before someone suggests bringing back Ross Perot, or the Reform Party. We all remember how well they worked out.</description>

		<description>The appointment of Mel Martinez to the RNC chairmanship, was not only a backhand to the Republican Party’s base, but an ugly preview of coming attractions.


Make no mistake, George W. Bush&#039;s guest worker plan means amnesty to over, IMO, 30+mil illegal aliens.  Why is our benevolent president doing this to America?  Well we found out after he was reelected, that he&#039;s an avowed Bilderberg Globalist, tied tighter to the New World Order, than to his oath of office, and the U.S. Constitution of which he falsely took a vow to defend .


Before his term is up, watch for Mr. Bush to destroy U.S. sovereignty for a &quot;North American Union,&quot; that will throw both borders wide open to anyone that wants to enter, and an end to America as we now know it.   Also, watch for a change of currency from the &quot;dollar&quot; to the &quot;Amero.&quot;

		<description>...and, I *HATE* that poem.  

It&#039;s not that it&#039;s a bad poem.  It&#039;s not very good.  All metaphor, and a bit over-blown.  What I despise is that it&#039;s brought up, again and again, as some sort of justification for immigration.  

We *DON&#039;T WANT* any more tired or poor or homeless, no matter how they want to breathe.  They can breathe at home.  If Europe or Mexico or Lower Whackistan has any surplus &quot;huddled masses&quot;, common courtesy dictates that they keep &#039;em on *THEIR* side of that tossing tempest, thank you very much.  We don&#039;t need any &quot;wretched refuse&quot;...we generate enough of our own.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Puritan, I live about 70 miles north of you. I don’t know what experiences you have had in San Antonio, but based on the ones I have had, I am puzzled by your anger.

I am an immigrant to this country... 

And I love that poem. -- RushBaby&lt;/blockquote&gt;

...well, to start with, I am *NOT* mad at the invaders themselves.  

I&#039;m not mad them the way that I don&#039;t get mad at people who can work &quot;special deals&quot; around city statutes, find insurance loopholes or win because the other guy beats himself.  

As Pablo quite correctly points out, Mexico has resources, capital, and I&#039;d also opine that it has people who&#039;ll work their maracas off for family and community.  

They just didn&#039;t dodge the &quot;Democratic bullet&quot;...they&#039;ve had plutocrats in charge since he Peninsulares left...and Democratic plutocrats in charge since the dawn of the PRI.  

...after Tuesday, I sympathize.

The guys *I&#039;M* angry with are *MY OWN*!  

I&#039;m royally teed-off at the &quot;bleed for the world&quot;, &quot;bleed for the poor&quot; ideologues who&#039;ve never themselves even *SEEN* a block of &quot;gub&#039;mint cheese&quot;, let alone had to eat any.  They want &quot;social justice&quot;, and can&#039;t see why we should &quot;exclude&quot; anyone...so long as they can keep their plump, juicy gigs.  

Some wag needs to poll So. Cal. and suburban Southwest gated communities -- those with faux-Spanish names like &quot;Casitas del Sol&quot; and &quot;Las Barrancas de Las Cucarachas&quot; -- to see how many open-borders advocates live there.  

I&#039;m not p.o.&#039;d when someone tweaks the system...I&#039;m rampantly near-homocidal when I see weenies trying to dismantle the system to its component parts for the furtherance of their careers in &quot;public service&quot; or &quot;public advocacy&quot;.  A *LOT* of folks on the oper-borders side of this &quot;discussion&quot; simply want to &quot;import&quot; constituents.

By and large, this sort of &quot;social justice&quot; has not only a price tag -- which the advocates will dodge -- but the utopian expectation that it&#039;ll all work if it&#039;s &quot;just given a chance&quot;...regardless of the fact that it&#039;s been an utter failure for the same pie-in-the-sky, detached-from-reality reasons in France, Belgium, Holland and Germany.  

For the record, I&#039;m most decidedly *NOT* an immigrant, nor am I a son or even a grandson of immigrants.  

The latest person to arrive and slip into my gene pool did so 150 years ago.  My first relations to join the party, on both sides of my family, came here before the civil war...the *ENGLISH* Civil War.  One was on the Mayflower.  One was a *late* arrival, pulling into New England in 1635.  

...none of us was ever a big wheel, a war hero, or a captain of state...although an indirect relative, a great-great-ditto-ditto grandfather&#039;s brother still holds the disctinction as the *WORST* person as regards attendance, campaigning methods and character *EVER* to serve in the US Senate.  William Sharon...look it up.

So, this whole &quot;nation of immigrants&quot; thing falls flat with me.  We&#039;ve been here so long that the Indians buy trinkets from *us*.  

We&#039;re a pretty well-travelled lot, as well.

In about 1791, one direct grandfather and his brood was the first over the Appalachians from New Jersy to Ohio.  As that that &quot;other&quot;, ill-named &quot;civil war&quot; was drawing to a close, that guy&#039;s great grandson or so took his chil&#039;lens to Nebraska...when Red Cloud and his posse were still at large.  

Somewhere in there, somebody took part in the Colorado Gold Rush of 1859...and if they found anything, they didn&#039;t leave any to me.  

One generation after another, no two generations spending their entire lives in one spot, always moving west until they reached California, these folks *NEVER* had the sense to sink roots deeper than a salad carrot.  They kept going, only to ricochet back into Nevada for a while, then back to California...where some of &#039;em could probably be seen  glowering over the ocean at Australia....

...so, in our own modest way, my family built this nation...one leaky-roofed, a$$-outta-yer-britches log or sod or gingerbread cabin at a time.

I can sympathize with emmigrants and immigrants, but not *AT ALL* with these pasty-white arrivistes who want to tell me to shut the heck up...that this country belongs to whomever shows up with a &quot;greater need&quot; than I&#039;ve got.

..as I said before...somebody thinks that because they saw poverty when they went to &quot;coeds-gone-wild&quot; in Cancun during spring break in college, that Mexicans, etc., have some sort of eminent domain.

...I reserve a little vitriol, by the way, for the Mechistas, the Reconquistadores and other assorted faux-Aztecs who want to &quot;recover&quot; &quot;Aztlan&quot; by fiat of birth.  They&#039;re not to be counted in my book on the same ledger as the working stiffs braving a trip in the back of a semi-trailer.  They&#039;re hack-pols.  They&#039;re scum of the lowest order.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Well, then we’re just done then. Why bother trying to articulate a message, or deliver on policy?

Let’s just give up and continue to stew in our own fetid brew of pity, recriminations and anger at our party.&lt;/i&gt;

Republicans can always go as liberal as Arnold Schwarzenegger in a desperate bid for Hispanic votes.  He managed to grab a whopping 34% of the Hispanic vote during his first election.  Of course, that was during a time of great crisis for the California Democrats.  Still, that is an amazing 11 points higher than the Mexicans&#039; most hated California governor, Pete Wilson, who snagged 23% of the vote.  Woo-hoo!

Thanks to our immigration policies, they will all be RiNOs soon enough.</description>

		<description>Puritan1648,
&lt;blockquote&gt;…excellent notion…don’t they have rather tasty oilfields up north of Vera Cruz? We could make this pay.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

They&#039;ve got just about everything a country could want, except a government/economy that works. Oil, excellent land for agriculture, gorgeous natural attractions...they&#039;re up to their eyeballs in natural resources. Trouble is, they&#039;re everything the left likes to think we are. They&#039;re corrupt to the bone, and the handful of rich people run roughshod over everyone else.</description>
