I am going to take a day off over the weekend though, have to for my sanity, wrists, & voice. Talked more than I ever have, even if it was for short periods demand NO votes on their Dream Act......Nightmare is what it should be called.


Besides sleep is probably needed, even though if they did caffeine checks I would be off the wall....

OOps forgot, CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SURPRISE........

Seems we have gone from racists to fools now?

I will not disclose it because i dont want the fools to get a head start.


WHY YOU NEED TO CALL ON MONDAY..Me, tasksgirl, mbluparadise and Oliver have a *BIG* secret suprise for Monday i will not disclose what it is, but it SURELY TO WIN MORE SUPPORTERS


Gosh think we can let the "BIG" secret out that the DA is now the DEAD ACT?

Lets all monitor the opposition this weekend to find out what their BIG supritse is!

I have a strong suspicion that this Monday "surprise" by the illegals will be a military recruiter speaking at Congress of why our military needs illegals and that the Dream Act will increase recruitment.

We have to finish strong this Monday. Just like a Shaquile O'Neal dunk.
Call everyone you know. Tell them that Monday is Death to the Dream Act Day!!!

I wonder what the anti-war crowd says about this? It's kind of sick when you think about it, we are screwing up so badly in Iraq we need to recruit desperate foreigners to continue the fight there? I wonder whose side the illegals will be fighting for, Voz de Aztlan thinks they should be fighting for AlQuaida. You know during the Mexican-American war, a bunch of US Irish immigrants fought on the Mexican side! The Mexicans called them the San Patricio (Saint Patrick) brigade. They were captured and imprisoned or executed by the US after the war.

Here's an entry from a blogger on redstate.com. I don't know how reliable this writer's info is, or about the title of the post, and I can't link to the Wall Street Journal article that's referenced. This shows that we can't let up or let our guard down:

Amnesty now! Why the "Dream Act" will pass.

Dick Durbin has a new sales pitch to get the DOD behind supporting the "Dream Act". He intends to attach the legislation to the defense authorization bill that will be rushed through later this fall and thus hide this, as much as he can, from the public.

The pitch to the military is allow undocumented immigrants, who have a high school diploma, the option of enlisting in the armed forces. I assume they would have to pass the ASVAB vocational test with the same scores as citizens, as well as criminal background checks but I have not been able to confirm this.

Bill Carr, Deputy Undersecretary for Military-Personnel Policy is pushing this from the civilian side of the Pentagon.

I spent five years recruiting and keep in touch with the folks doing it today. Although the job is challenging, the services are meeting their recruiting goals. There is NO recruiting crisis.

The most cogent article is in the WSJ (subscription required).

note: None of the appropriations bills have been passed so far, watch as they roll them into big bundles with a little sugar for everyone and rush them through in the dead of night.

Kit Bond - my senator - has pledged to vote against it..... by St. Louis Conservative
...hopefully Claire McCaskill will too since she opposed the first immigration bill, but you never know. I think grassroots activists have done a pretty decent job of getting the word out on this thing. Limbaugh and Laura Ingraham have been talking about it on the radio, plus NumbersUSA is already all over it. I'm cautiously optimistic that it will die.
