Crazy, unpatriotic bigots

Crazy, unpatriotic bigotsWhat Little George and his gang in their enthusiasm forgot to remember is that crazy, unpatriotic bigots who form the hard core of Bush's support network don't like being called crazy, unpatriotic bigots. And so, you see, it wasn't long before Right-wing media were all ablaze with comments from crazy, unpatriotic bigots who fancy themselves principled conservatives:
- "I am tired of Washington elites calling me a racist bigot because I believe in the rule of law, fairness and protecting our national identity." – Wes Allen, Troy, AL, to the editor of the Montgomery Advertiser, June 3.
- "George Bush .... will be remembered as the president who discarded American sovereignty, rule of law, language, and culture in exchange for cheap lettuce and fruit." – John Lillpop, who bills himself 'a recovering liberal,' June 3.
- "Those who endorse a vigorous immigration crackdown are upholding a sound conservative idea ... namely, the rule of law." – columnist Steve Chapman, Chicago Tribune, June 3.
- "It's a great national concern about observing the rule of law." – Sen. Arlen Specter, in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, June 3.
- "It's about the rule of law, our national security, the American culture, the English language, national unity during time of war, the constitutional rights of American citizens and the fiscal concerns of American taxpayers and their descendants." – columnist David Limbaugh, May 22.
- "Over those years, it has not been uncommon for conservative thinkers ... to disagree.... But never before has a dispute degenerated into a street fight. We're seeing one now." – editor, Arizona Republic, June 3.

Jimmy Montage's slick piece, Crazy, unpatriotic bigots need love, too, published in the June 5 Atlantic Free Press, offers a profundity of thought sorely missing from the current war being fought in America over illegal immigration.
The accompanying photo showing President Bush mounted on a horse in the midst of answering nature's call (the horse, that is!) was especially charming, and provides a fairly succinct summation of Dubya's amnesty proposal: Horse crap being sold by a dyslexic, alcoholic cowboy!
Good shot, Jimmy! Pinched from a recent Montague family album, no doubt?
However, with regard to substance, please inform Jimmy that lumping Sen. Arlen Specter in with those "30 percent of Americans, who prop Bush up," and who would remain loyal no matter what, would be laughable were it not so damn funny.
In fact, Senator Specter has been a consistent and vocal opponent of the Bush administration on any number of issues.
Mind you, the gentleman from Pennsylvania is not nearly as liberal as, say, Democrat Teddy Kennedy.
But that is only because Specter's brain has not been soaking in whiskey 24/7 for 50 years, as is the case with Senator Kennedy.
Still, for Jimmy to be a serious contender for a Pulitzer, his text should be corrected.
I recommend that Jimmy's reference to Specter be replaced with a direct quote from a real crazy, unpatriotic bigot who, speaking on the floor of the United States Senate, had this to say:
“In response to increased terrorism and abuse of social programs by aliens, (I) today introduced the first and only comprehensive immigration reform bill in Congress. Currently, an alien living illegally in the United States often pays no taxes but receives unemployment, welfare, free medical care, and other federal benefits. Recent terrorist acts, including the World Trade Center bombing, have underscored the need to keep violent criminals out of the country.”
The senator’s bill, titled the “Immigration Stabilization Act,” overhauls the nation's immigration laws, and calls for a massive scale-down of immigrants allowed into the country. The bill also changes asylum laws to prevent phony asylum seekers.
The senator said the U.S. open door policy is being abused at the expense of honest, working citizens.
The senator continued:
"We are a country founded upon fairness and justice. An individual in real threat of torture or long-term incarceration because of his or her political beliefs can still seek asylum. But this bill closes the door to those who want to abuse America's inherent generosity and legal system.”
"Our borders have overflowed with illegal immigrants placing tremendous burdens on our criminal justice system, schools and social programs. The Immigration and Naturalization Service needs the ability to step up enforcement. Our federal wallet is stretched to the limit by illegal aliens getting welfare, food stamps, medical care, and other benefits often without paying any taxes.”
“Safeguards like welfare and free medical care are in place to boost Americans in need of short-term assistance. These programs were not meant to entice freeloaders and scam artists from around the world. Even worse, Americans have seen heinous crimes committed by individuals who are here illegally.”
So, just what sort of American scum would take such a politically incorrect and bigoted stance?
Zell Miller, from the great state of Georgia? Or perhaps a ghastly reincarnation of Alabama’s late firebrand, George Wallace?
In fact, Democrat Senator Harry Reid, the current majority leader of the U.S. Senate, introduced the Immigration Stabilization Act in the United States Senate in 1993. The statements quoted are from a press release issued by Reid’s office on August 5, 1993.
Fast forward to 2007, and one discovers that Harry Reid is a leading proponent of amnesty for illegal aliens, a community that has grown to anywhere from 12-30 million people.
What caused Harry Reid to flip flop from "Deport the bastards!" in 1993 to "Let them all stay and make them all citizens!" in 2007?
Simple: Harry Reid and the Democrats see illegal aliens as future voters, Democrat voters!
After all, 12-30 million "undocumented Democrats" is quite a prize for a party that is overwhelmed with failed ideas and liberal anarchists like Nancy Pelosi and John Murtha!
Principle be damned! It is the votes, stupid!
Too bad myopic vision prevents Jimmy from seeking the truth about Democrats: Namely, They’re all a lot of scum!

I didn't think anyone in the country still thought Drudge or Limbaugh were viable sources anymore.
When we look at other topics - the debt for example, we see the GOP has already spent us into bankruptcy with almost $9 trillion of debt. Most of this debt was created during eras of tax cuts (the Reagan and Bush 43 years).
Since the GOP has no credibility on threats to our national security (Iraq) or our budget (massive debt), they shouldn't be trusted on immigration unless failure is a viable option.
