Now for all of my liberal friends, don't get excited. I am still a conservative. I've researched Democrat Presidential candidates, and I still have been unable to find one that I would vote for over a Republican. My change of party is a direct result of this so-called conservative administration. Again sorry to disappoint the liberals, but this President is far from conservative. His spending has been out of control, we're nation-building when he promised we wouldn't in his 2000 campaign, and his lack of action on protecting our borders and sending an "illegal immigrant" invitation to Mexico with talks of Amnesty has only encouraged entry, not discourage it. That's just the President. The Republicans control congress yet they do not stand up to their Democrat counterparts. Nor do they use that control to make conservative changes in our legislation. I'm not talking about abortion by the way. I'm talking about cutting spending, reforming welfare to give a hand-up instead of a hand-out. The same Republicans who stand by and entertain all of the Democrat requests on information on Supreme court candidates. They are spineless. I can't be part of a party that acts that way. They speak of conservatism, but that's all it is. Just incessant speak. Now understand that one less Republican in Massachusetts is not a big deal as far as this blue state goes. But I will be writing a letter and calling the White House message line. I'll be letting them know, because of their inaction, they can count on one less guaranteed vote. Democrat or Republican make sure you are not voting for laundry.
We are in trouble with illegal immigration. If you are reading this thinking I am worrying too much, or don't have time to consider this, you have your head in the sand. People have been pointing out illegal immigration problems for 20 years. It's coming to a head. Consider emergency services in a hurricane as one example. Your tax dollars pay for this kind of support. How far do you think it will go per person if there are 20% more people occupying an area than was forecasted. That is only one small relevant example out of hundreds. Right now, the so-called conservatives running our nation are ignoring it. It's the Democrats that have jumped on this one... triangulating I assume. And it is soley the fault of this President, administration and congress.
Can we give it a break already?!! No pun intended.
I have to say... I'm truly heart broken. In fact I can say I am borderline hopeless at the result of this judgment/settlement. In the end, it comes down to this: Illegal aliens are crossing into our country by the tens of thousands. Our President speaks of promises of amnesty. People can't protect or defend their land that these people are using to illegally enter our country, sometimes trafficking drugs. You now have two illegal aliens that have been awarded over 1 million dollars. Because of this, one of the accused has to forfeit his land to people breaking the law! If our government would protect our borders, this probably would have never happened. This is the exact reason I changed from Republican to unenrolled(formerly Independent). As I began, I am heart broken at the lack of logic that is used to run our once great country.
