Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
I understand the conservative impulse WRT illegal immigration, but there are three cold, hard facts that R's must come to grips with:
1. The 11 million or so illegal immigrants in this country are not going anywhere. They are never going to "self deport." There aren't enough detention centers or law enforcement officers or other legal resources in this country to dislodge them. The best hope is to get control over our border so that today's 11 million doesn't become tomorrow's 22 million illegals. That is a reasonable and achievable goal. But the R's are going to have to start thinking of illegals as a permanent fact.
2. One of the biggest reasons that there are so many illegals in this country is the Establishment of the Republican party WANTS them here. Illegals are cheap labor which is good for business. If there was any real Republican interest in stopping illegal immigration, the R's would have acted on it when they controlled the White House, Senate and House. But they didn't. That should tell you everything you know about the real R interest in getting rid of a major corporate cash cow.
3. If the R's who actually want to deport illegals continue to say so, loud and proud, they will completely drive Hispanics into the arms of the Democrats. Considering how fast the Hispanic population is growing in the US, that is playing with fire. If Hispanics start voting Dem as robotically as blacks, the R party is finished.

Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
Vote libertarian, either within the R party (the Paul's) or outside of it. Don't vote Establishment Republican, a la Romney, McCain, Bush Sr., or Dole. The corporatists will do just fine without your help.I'm voting for Santa. Seriously.

Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
Yes, I can absolutely see where Establishment appointees Romney, McCain, Bush Sr. and Dole have gotten us. That, sir, is the problem. I voted for all those moderate corporatist losers except the last one. With Romney, I finally decided that one of the definitions of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different result.

Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
Those guys did better than Ron Paul or Ross Perot. Don't get me wrong, I would have preferred either Paul or Perot to any of those you mentioned, but the voting public at large still stays together like a school of fish when it comes to "the candidate", whoever that candidate might be...

I'm guessing all minorities, including Jews, are also in danger of having their voting privileges revoked in IB's perfect white Mormony world.

i don't know where you could have gotten the idea that I was. i guess it doesn't matter. if you are going to make asinine remarks about me taking the vote away from minorities, I guess it doesn't matter what you think
there are two groups that have proven (time and again) that they should not be cancelling out my (or your) vote:
- women
- anyone under the age of 26
if you are under age 26, you may live at home and remain on your parent's health insurance. since that is now the law, you forfeit the right to be recognized (by me) as an adult. you no longer are an adult. from a scientific/medical standpoint, you do NOT have a fully formed brain yet. i do NOT want you anywhere near the voting booth, not when your vote counts as much as mine. no way.

Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
Tru dat and in 4 or 5 generations Americans will be sneaking into Mexico to work because of were liberals have taken the country. Never have understood why illegals sneak in and then try to turn the place into the shithole they left. Same with northern retirees that move to Florida for the weather and lower taxes. Then they vote the same which created the mess that made them want to move in the first place.10ac wrote:Today's 11 million will become tomorrow's 22 million. The Republican party is done.
