Couple of othe...Nice post definitive and succinct. Couple of other thoughts. I am developing a wonk-crush on Paul Ryan, I keep here him saying the right things, unfortunately in a wonky way.<br />The other reason to oppose the illegal immigration amnesty is that it is clearly intended as a stealth mechanism to bolster the statist vote by adding more poverty stricken citizens to various social programs and turn them into reliably liberal democrat voting block. Further, this plot will add to the cost of government. This makes it a Tea Party issue as well. <br /><br />Not to get on a rant, but much of the leftist agenda can be traced to a desire to remove money from hard working American citizens and give it to someone else, passing through the hands of our government. Think global warming, amnesty for illegals, and the whole porkulus package. That crowd HATES the average American citizen as an undeserving, bigoted, religious, gun toting idiot who must be put in their place for the good of mankind. Peek behind their agenda and you will see it always sticks it to the average American.B-Daddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13880092017105841256noreply@blogger.com
