McCain plans trips to promote guest worker bill,
McCain plans trips to promote guest worker bill, 2008 campaign

The Business Journal
Arizona Sen. John McCain has upcoming trips to Florida to tout immigration reforms and Tennessee to promote a possible presidential bid to Republican partisans.
McCain will be in Miami on Thursday and will promote a business-backed guest worker program and other immigration reforms. The Arizona senator will speak at "town hall" meeting in South Florida sponsored by the New American Opportunity Campaign. That group includes labor unions, business interests, Hispanic groups and other supporters of guest worker program.
McCain and East Valley Congressman Jeff Flake are among the backers of a federal plan to create a guest worker program for immigrant workers and allow illegals already in the U.S. to apply for legal status after paying a $2,000 fine and undergoing criminal and medical background checks.
The idea has the backing of the U.S. and Arizona chambers of commerce, but is opposed by some conservative immigration hawks.
McCain will also help raise campaign funds for two Miami-area GOP congressmen during his time in Florida.
In early March, McCain will be in Memphis attending the Southern Republican Leadership Conference. That event will feature a number of possible 2008 presidential candidates, including McCain, U.S. Sen. George Allen, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist and Govs. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts and Mike Huckabee of Arkansas.
McCain has been hitting Southern states in earnest as he mulls another run for the White House. In 2000, George W. Bush trounced McCain in South Carolina and other Southern battlegrounds in the GOP presidential primaries.
McCain is a top GOP contender in the 2008 presidential tilt. Leading Democratic candidates include Virginia Gov. Mark Warner and U.S. Sens. Joseph Biden, Evan Bayh, John Kerry and Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Give it up McCain. We don't want your stinking traitorous lyin' schemin' Guest Worker Program.
Who pays for their trips to do things like this?
Pleeease don't tell me, American Taxpayers pay the travel agenda of a United States Senator on Tour to try and sell us on agreeing to sell out our nation? Pleeeease tell me we haven't stooped that low and allowed crap like that to occur?
Pull their expense accounts. Ground them. Keep them in DC until we can get these morons out of our government. We're broke anyway, so their trips are accruing to the national debt your grandchildren will still be paying on.
Who do these Fat Cats like McCain think they are?
They're freaks. Get rid of 'em. Fire them all. Get some reasonable, sensible Americans in there to run our government.A Nation Without Borders Is Not A Nation - Ronald Reagan

McCain asks for help changing U.S. immigration policy

Senator John McCain is asking for help in changing the U-S immigration policy.
The Arizona Republican made the plea Thursday while speaking at Florida's Miami-Dade College.
He listened to immigrants' stories about difficulties they face in legalizing their status and leaving family members behind.
McCain says these stories need to be repeated and shared if they want to successfully change the policy.
The senator also attended a luncheon yesterday with El Salvador's president, Tony Saca. Saca says he'll urge President Bush to overhaul U-S immigration laws to both secure American borders and protect immigrants from Latin America.
McCain and Senator Edward Kennedy are sponsoring a bill that would let illegal immigrants already in this country be guest workers for up to six years. They would then have a chance at permanent residency.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Exactly! PinestrawGuys...after reading the article and thinking about what I might say in retort and then scrolling down and seeing your post, I laughed until I cried because no one could have said it better than you did with those 5 simple words...relieving me of further duty on this article.
WELL DONE!!
