In other words, the FAIR Action Alert that I posted earlier today about the impending "recaptured visa" vote in Congress should not have been pulled by the MODS since it wasn't about the "Fire" event?

Or is anything released by FAIR at this time not to be posted?

You may post FAIR's alerts if you want but we stopped relying on them and started depending on Numbers and other ALIPAC resources in DC a long time back. The Fair Alerts are usually slower and less accurate than Numbers.

They've always been much later on here than any others.

Actually, im doing my best to keep the peace and I'm not giving out the info by PM or email either.

I'm sorry, I don't follow your meaning.

MW,

Your complaints about ALIPAC and leadership issues are fairly constant and are expressed pretty regularly. So what I meant by that is that it is no shock to anyone that your response to this situation would be.... umm a bit critical as usual.

I certainly do not mind constructive criticism

I am probably the most curious member ever to have joined Alipac. I always want the whys, wheres and how comes. I am sensing in this case, that although my curiosity is killing me, it is something better left dropped.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe W probably has substantial reasons for holding this position. He probably has knowledge that we are not privy too, that if leaked out, the other side would take a drop of paint and use it to cover the entire movement.

An example I could use happened on topix a while back. One alledged anti immigrant person made horrible racist statements and openly admitted to belonging to a group of white supremacists. The OBL's on that thread used it to paint all of us with the same brush.


The only thing I ask is many years from now, after we have won the war and have our country back, will you then share this with us W?

MW:

W: Thank you so much for your insight.

Always turn the OBL's fractured logic back on them. It they paint all immigration enforcement advocates as racist because of the statement of one white supremacist, then they must also believe that ALL illegal aliens are rapists, murderers, drunk driver killers, identity theives and terrorists because of the actions of some illegals.

No, NOT all illegals are murderers, terrorists, rapists, drunken drivers, identity thieves, etc, but all illegals ARE criminals!

Yep, I've never been accused of holding my opinion near and dear to my heart. However, I would question the application of "fairly constant."

And I thought I complained a lot :P :P
