Those damn liberals!!
It's being reported that this bill will be rushed through as soon as monday. It will give 12 million illegal aliens the right's we all enjoy.
I was wondering if any tx. locals wanted to comment on the vote that passed in Farmers Branch. Will this cancel the vote of the people?
Those damn liberals!!
xray is now organizing the next Minuteman meeting.
Bush is ready to push this through. I'm thinking that local tx. jurisdiction could be willing to mount a fight against this tx. President.
Bush wants to pass this bill. Could Texans turn on their savior?
bush and mccain sure are conservative
Bush is playing approval rating limbo. I think he is trying to beat Truman.
hes playing north american union
No SA210, I am not. But when something like the
below shows up, it kinda makes my blood boil. Why
don't we just open the damn borders and give
our country away. Would that make you happy. ,
you might even have registered some of the people
the story talks about.
EXCLUSIVE: Hundreds of Illegals Have Registered to Vote in Bexar County
Officials are confident new procedures will purge them from the rolls
By Jim Forsyth
Wednesday, May 16, 2007
Hundreds of illegal immigrants have registered to vote in Bexar County in recent years and dozens of them have actually cast ballots, canceling out the votes of U.S. citizens, 1200 WOAI news will report Thursday morning.
Figures obtained by 1200 WOAI news shows 303 illegals successfully registered to vote, and at least 41 cast ballots in various elections.
Bexar County Elections Administrator Jackie Callanan confirmed the figures, but she says a new form of voter registration card, which requires people to swear they are citizens when they register, should help cut the problem, because people who vote illegally can be charged with perjury.
And the county has some sly ways to catch them.
"Maybe they have received a jury summons, the jury wheel relies on registered voters. They send a statement to the jury room that says they are not U.S. citizens and then we get that report immediately," Callanan says.
It's a hot issue in the Texas Legislature, where republicans are pushing a bill that would require voters to show some form of identification before voting.
"Considering that a photo ID is required to buy Sudafed, I can't understand why anyone would argue that the same standard, if not a higher standard, should apply to voting," Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst said. "Why would any Texan oppose legislation that ensures only U.S. citizens vote in elections?"
While not taking a position on the legislation, Callanan warned that any law that required that people present ID at the polling place might actually discourage people from voting.
"It will be bersome to have them presented at the polls," she said. "The lines will be longer. It will require an additional check."
Some Democrats in the Legislature have fought the proposal, saying it would keep the poor and minorities, who generally vote Democratic, away from the polls. A key Democratic Senator and Dewhurst got into an argument on the floor of the Senate over the emotional issue.
Callanan says if an ID law is approved, she hopes a process is in place to allow the Secretary of State, not the individual poll judges at the polling places, to inspect the identification and certify that a voter is fit to vote.
Dewhurst says the legislation has been rewritten to make it as easy as possible for a person to prove their legal citizenship.
"Voters can now present military ID, valid employee ID, citizenship certificate, passport, student ID card, handgun permit, utility bill, bank statement, pay stub, mail from a government en y, marriage license, birth certificate, adoption certificate, pilot's license, hunting license, or even a library card," Dewhurst said. "What's so hard about this?"

Another little thought. Breaking the law of the country
you wish to become part of is a great way to start.
He is ahead of the dimm-o-crap congress by several points.
've a job the dimms are doing up there. Congressional
approval ratings are down since they have taken over.
Nobody from farmers branch, huh. Just wanted to hear their take on this. I expect a bit of legal wrangling on this.
You dip s. The approval ratings keep going down becuase of Dubya and his cronies. Be serious.He is ahead of the dimm-o-crap congress by several points.

GWB is really pissing me off!!
Joe, Bush elected the members of Congress? Gee you
really do give him a lot of credit. The dimms finally did
something on their own.
Well maybe, the Republicans helped with their dumbass
actions that folks elected them to do. They started
acting just like dimm-o-craps.

But it's the "will of the people," Xray.
Why not allow people have the opportunity to have a better life, ray?
Corps and business lobbyists had input to this bill, but the result is not what they wanted. Nobody seems happy with it.
Notice that the corps don't give a about amnesty "rewarding illegals". All they care about is cheap labor.
We do. We just like them to enter through the front door and wipe their feet first.
It would make me very happy if guys such as you would've been born in a poor neighborhood of Managua or San Salvador.
That would've been ing rich.
I saw somewhere that 1 billion foreigners would like to come to America. Even if it's not possible to know the exact number, I'm sure that 1 billion isn't far off. We have 300 million people in the country now. There is no way that we can let in even 1/10 of all the people who'd like to move to America. We have poor neighborhoods here as well.
But we weren't. Thank God. But that is not the argument.
The argument is these people are coming ILLEGALLY and
demanding rights which they do not have.
They also do not want to become Americans, like others
before them. Those who came in the past had no
government handouts, bi-lingual education, forms
printed in their language. They learned English, learned to
assimilate into the American way of life. Not set up their
own little country within ours. Including flying their
own flag from their country of origin.
Those that want to come to this country are welcome by
me and others so long as they do it properly.
How bout I come over to your home, slip in thru the
door, demand you feed me, educate me, respect me
and give me everything your family has. Would that
be okay with you? Oh, I will cut your grass, even tho
kid next door will do just as good a job and needs the
pocket money.
I have a better idea why don't you ask these third world
countries to shake loose from some their money and
take care of their own people. Create some jobs,
educate the populace, instead of just the rich. How
bout you demanding that, since you live in a country
with so many poor?
I think a local judge has put a hold on any actions from this legislation. If the people who pushed for this act decide to challenge this ruling, would they have a chance of succeeding? Any legal eagles out there?
Stop living in the past. I see racism is still alive and kicking in the good old USA. And don't try to spin it otherwise.
I'm not trying to spin anything. In fact, to challenge this judge's ruling would mean putting the racist in the spotlight. That would be a of alot of fun. Wouldn't it be great to possibly see some familiar faces?
