... Could it be because we're going to win in Iraq, have lovely, big bases within striking distance of lots of troublesome middle eastern countries and every time the Dems trot out the white flags, they get boo'd?

Dems have also chosen the wrong side of the immigration debate. With 70-odd percent of the American public angry about the inaction on border tightening, removing illegals, preventing loss and crime Repubs stand tough and a few are actually making sense!

Wake up Bob! The MSM doesn't set agenda. You're not a 'player' or 'part of the process'. You just leech along after the fact and try to make ratings and dough by reporting the dirt.

Remember?

Apparently Texas Cowpie Bob has not added up the numbers to find out that more illegals are dying and Americans being run over and murdered by illegals THAN ARE DYING IN IRAQ.

For a further note, 2 Americans are now in Federal Prison because they shot a Mexican drug dealer.

They are border patrol agents Ramos and Compean.

The Mexican dope dealer the federal government used to convict these 2 heroes was just arrested again.

I ask that people would send a letter to Mr. Ramos in prison this Christmas as it has been hell on him and his wife and children. Be nice, tell him you are praying for him and people are not forgetting him in working with Tom Tancredo for his release.

His address is:

Ignacio Ramos #58079 - 180
FCI Phoenix
Federal Correctional Institution
37910 N. 45th Ave
Phoenix, AZ 85086

Remember the Bible verse, I was in prison and you visited me. Send him a short note as he was serving America to protect all of us.

for updates you can go to

and if you want to order ribbons to show support you can go to

His family deeply appreciates the efforts of those who have not forgotten this former Navy shipman and border agent. If enough support can be generated a pardon can be granted by President Bush.

This is the real illegal issue and it is past time these 2 gentlemen should be freed.

God bless for those who are moved.

Troops deserve credit. Absolutely. Anyone else?

The additional troops the administration put into Iraq this year have made a difference -- frankly more of a difference than I would have thought -- and those troops deserve great credit.

Naturally Schieffer would never consider the possibility that President Bush "AND" his commanders deserve a bit of credit here for sticking to their guns and having the courage to press on.

The MSM usually reserves their fawning for those like Gen. Wesley Clark -- right, our NATO Supreme Commander who was fired from his position by the Clinton administration for insubordination.

People are dying because of immigration too Bob.

Illegal immigrants drive cars and kill people.

Their gangs deal drugs and kill people.

They live off of the welfare system and drain money that could go to other areas such as cancer or AIDS research.

Couple that together with officers of the law that have been injured or killed in the line of duty because of illegal alien activity and you could make a strong case that they a darn close.

The only thing you should feel when shooting insurgents is the rifle recoil.

Perhaps, it's best that the Rebublicans get some attention on their immigration debate, becasuse the media certainly missed what jibberish is taking place in the other camp.

What follows are excerpts from Sen. Obama's remarks at the recent CNN hosted Dem debate in Las Vegas. These excerpts are in the correct order. I have only removed the fluff around his words -- his plan -- and [added comments], for entertainment effect.

SEN. OBAMA: -- this administration, the Bush administration, has done nothing about. [well, the 8 yrs of the Clinton admin did what?]

 

Now, I have already stated that, as president, I will make sure that we finally have the kind of border security that we need. That's step number one. (Applause.) [ugh - where's the fence?]

 

Step number two is to take on employers. Right now, they -- an employer has more of a chance of getting hit by lightning than be prosecuted for hiring an undocumented worker. That has to change. They have to be held accountable. (Applause.) [wonderful - that means firing all 12 million illegal immigrants, does it not?]

 

I believe that we can take the undocumented workers, the illegal aliens who are here, get them out of the shadows, make sure that they are subject to a stiff penalty, [Brilliant. Just after Obama fires 12 million illegal's, he going to levy a stiff fine on them, while they are in hiding -- will someone explain to me why this crowd is applauding?]

 

make sure that they're learning English. [It just continues. Fire them. Fine them. Then, teach them English]

 

make sure that they go to the back of the line so they're not getting an advantage over people who came here legally [..and once you have these fired, fined suffering poor illegals speaking English, Obama's planning to send them home - Why do I sense that the crowd is soon to come to it's feet with passionate cheering?]

 

and we can once again be a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants. That's what I intend to do as president of the United States. (Cheers, applause.) [See? It's so easy to speak to a crowd full of gullible suckers, who simply are not capable of listening]

Well if Illegal immagration isn't fixed, in 60 years there will be well over a hundred million hispanic people in the south west making up the majority of all those states and cities, and the latin american socialism will be voted in simply because they will outnumber everybody else and traditional american values and government will die. and the middle east will be the least of our problems.
