Thread: McCain "frustrated" by immigration reform debate

It's not helpful in illuminating and educating the American people when we question one another's patriotism."

Now we must be illuminated and educated. It must be wonderful to be so much more intelligent, than we peasants.

This week President Bush accused leading opponents of the immigration reform package of trying to frighten Americans into opposing the bill. McCain says he's pleased the president is getting involved. "I don't like to critique the president's remarks, but I am very grateful for his involvement and his engagement," McCain says. "...He feels passionately about this issue."

McCain, Bush is not passionate, that which you see is a spoiled bully brat not getting his way!
And you McCain are an IDIOT!! please keep your mouth shut!!

“McCain "frustrated" by immigration reform debate

Some of McCain's rivals for the Republican Party's 2008 presidential nomination criticize the bill as "amnesty" for those who've entered the country illegally. McCain questions that definition. "What it really means is, short of deporting 12 million people, anything else is amnesty," McCain says. "Well, no one that I know thinks you can round up 12 million people and if you did, what would it do to our country?"


Why can't we deport them the same way they came - one million a year. JUST ENFORCE THE LAW.

Immigration talk follows McCain to Iowa

By HENRY C. JACKSON, Associated Press Writer
June 2, 2007



LE MARS, Iowa - Republican presidential candidate John McCain (news, bio, voting record) has a message for critics of the immigration compromise he helped devise.

"I respect your disagreement, but what's your proposal?" McCain said Saturday.

"If people who are running for president of the United States don't agree with this proposal, what's your proposal? ... The status quo is not acceptable," he told reporters.

McCain's comments came after a town hall event at a golf course in Le Mars, in northwest Iowa. Speaking to about 150 people, McCain dealt with questions about Iraq, government spending, health care and immigration.

The Arizona senator went back and forth with one man who said he did not think the immigration proposal was tough enough and that the government was not enforcing current laws.

"The old rules are not workable and enforceable," McCain said. "We've certainly proved that over the last 20 years."

Congress "failed you," McCain said. "We passed a law in 1986 that said we'd give amnesty to some people and now we have 12 million more" illegal immigrants.

McCain later headed to the Blue Bunny ice cream shop — a signature of Le Mars, which proudly calls itself the ice cream capital of the world.

It was where one of his GOP rivals, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, stopped this past week. Both Romney and McCain ordered chocolate shakes during their visit. McCain's had whipped cream and a cherry on top; Romney's did not.

Immigration debate follows McCain to campaign stop in Iowa

LE MARS (AP) — Republican presidential candidate John McCain has a message for critics of a comprehensive immigration plan he helped craft.

``I respect your disagreement, but what's your proposal?'' McCain said to reporters Saturday.

``If people who are running for president of the United States don't agree with this proposal, what's your proposal?...The status quo is not acceptable,'' he said.

McCain's comments came after a town hall event at a golf course in Le Mars, a town in northwest Iowa. Speaking to an audience of about 150 people, McCain spoke about Iraq, government spending and healthcare, among other topics, but immigration talk dominated the discussion.

McCain went back and forth with one audience member, who said he was upset that the immigration proposal before Congress is not tough enough. The man told McCain that there were already adequate laws on the books — they just aren't being enforced.

McCain said that was a misnomer.

``The old rules are not workable and enforceable,'' he said. ``We've certainly proved that over the last 20 years.''

Congress ``failed you,'' McCain said. ``We passed a law in 1986 that said we'd give amnesty to some people and now we have 12 million more,'' illegal immigrants.

The man wasn't satisfied with McCain's answer. He asked McCain why the U.S. couldn't execute large-scale deportations, as he had heard they did in France and other countries.

The question seemed to pique McCain.

``In case you hadn't noticed, the thousands of people who have been relegated to ghettos have risen up and burned cars in France,'' McCain said. ``They've got huge problems in France. They have tremendous problems. The police can't even go into certain areas in the suburbs of Paris. I don't want that in the suburbs of America.''

Audience member David Netz, of Sioux Center, said he wasn't surprised that immigration a popular topic at Saturday's event.

``I think people are getting their information from so many different sources that they don't know what's going on, they think it's a conspiracy or something,'' Netz said. ``I'm glad McCain talked about it, because it's important and because I think the information needs to be shared.''

McCain's plan, he said, ``will have people's support only if they really know what's in it.''

After the town hall event, McCain headed to the Blue Bunny ice cream shop — a signature of Le Mars, which proudly calls itself the ice cream capital of the world.

It was the same stop one of his rivals for the GOP nomination, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, made earlier in the week. Both Romney and McCain ordered chocolate shakes during their visit, although McCain's had whip cream and a cherry on top; Romney's did not.

Saturday's event came on the second day of a two-day visit from the Arizona senator. He was also scheduled to hold a campaign event in the resort town of Okoboji later in the day.
