    The Resurrection of the McCain-Kennedy Immigration (Amnesty)

    Subject: The Resurrection of the McCain-Kennedy Immigration (Amnesty) Bill...

    If John McCain is elected President, S1433, the McCain-Kennedy Immigration (Amnesty) Bill...will rise from the ashes and tear thru the Democratic Congress faster than a speeding bullet. President elect, John McCain will not be able to sign it quick enough.

    If John McCain becomes President, the McCain-Kennedy Amnesty Bill...is a done deal. The so called "straight talking", RINO, inadvertently admitted this, to Tim Russert on NBC's, 1/28/2008 "Meet The Press", as part of his reply to Russert's question "would you as president sign it (S1433)?"

    SEN. McCAIN: The bill, the bill is dead as it is written. We know that. We know that. And the bill is going to have to be, and I would sign it, securing the borders first and articulating those principles that I did. That's what we got out of this last very divisive and tough debate. And we have to get those borders secured. That's what Americans want first.

    If this is "straight-talk", I would hate to see "double-talk". This is "weasel speak" at its worst.

    On border security McCain was recently quoted as saying:

    "But I'll build the goddamned fence if they want it." See Michelle's Malkin's… John McCain: The Geraldo Rivera Republican, January 23, 2008

    Is John McCain a "straight-talker" or two-faced, "double-talker"?

    Jack McDermott

    The following transcript was abstracted from NBC's, "Meet The Press" , 1/28/2008,

    MR. RUSSERT: If the Senate passed your bill, S1433, the McCain-Kennedy Immigration Bill...

    SEN. McCAIN: Mm-hmm.

    MR. RUSSERT: ...would you as president sign it?

    SEN. McCAIN: Yeah, but we--look, the lesson is it isn't won. It isn't going to come. It isn't going to come. The lesson is they want the border secured first. That's the lesson. I come from a border state. I know how to fix those borders with walls, with UAVs, with sensors, with cameras, with vehicle barriers. They want the border secured first. And I will do that, and, as president, I will have the border state governors secure--certify those borders are secured. And then we will have a temporary worker program with tamper-proof biometric documents, and any employer who employs someone in any other circumstances will be prosecuted. That means a lot of people will leave just, just normally because they're not going to be able to get their job. Then, of course, we have to get rid of two million people who have committed crimes here. We have to round them up and deport them. As far as the others are concerned, we were in an ongoing debate and discussion when this whole thing collapsed, and part of that, I think, has to be a humane approach. Part of it has to be maybe people have to go back to the country that they came from for a period of time while we look at it. But the principle that the American people want, secure the borders, reward no one ahead of someone who has either waited or has come to this country legally because they have broken our laws to come here. But I'm confident--look, there's, there's humanitarian situations. There's a soldier who's missing in action in Iraq. His wife was here illegally. America's not going to deport her. We have humanitarian circumstances. America's a generous Judeo-Christian valued nation, and we can sit down together. The--all leading Republican candidates now just about agree that with--using those principles that I just articulated, we can fix it. But secure the borders first.

    MR. RUSSERT: But you would sign your bill...

    SEN. McCAIN: It's not going to come across my desk.

    MR. RUSSERT: It won't pass.

    SEN. McCAIN: I--if pigs fly, then--look...

    MR. RUSSERT: So it's dead.

    SEN. McCAIN: The bill, the bill is dead as it is written. We know that. We know that. And the bill is going to have to be, and I would sign it, securing the borders first and articulating those principles that I did. That's what we got out of this last very divisive and tough debate. And we have to get those borders secured. That's what Americans want first.

    MR. RUSSERT: Rush Limbaugh, one of the leading voices in the conservative movement, said this the other day, "I'm here to tell you, if either of these two guys, Mike Huckabee or John McCain, get the nomination, it's going to destroy the Republican Party. It's going to change it forever, be the end of it. A lot of people aren't going to vote. You watch."

    So mclamebrain, if you know how to do it then why hasn't it been done?

    Do we need another 9/11 at the hands of illegals before America finally wakes up? Come on folks, illegal immigrants were involved in the 9/11 attacks. Securing the border should have been in the top 5 priority list.

    With all due respect Rush, your worried about the Republican Party being destroyed and I'm worried about the United States of America being destroyed.

    Politics no longer matter to me on this issue. I just want it solved

    Top 5? Heck, like the immediate landing of the planes, it should have been no. 2 on the list.

    I agree there Cayla. Technically it should have been #1!
