State Of Emergency Sought Over Illegal Immigration
Recent Immigration Rallies Anger GOP Group

DENVER -- Eight Colorado Republicans have sent a letter to President George W. Bush asking him to declare a national state of emergency as a result of illegal immigration.

They want the president to secure U.S. borders and said they are shocked by the "blatant, coordinated, and anti-American demonstrations on behalf of illegal aliens throughout the country ... with little or no serious action on the part of the Federal Government to address the growing negative impact of illegal aliens, on the American people, or to protect all states from invasion,"

bush between the wingers and the cheap labor donors

:rofl: couldn't happen to a more deserving ass.

Sadly, this all is distracting from the issues the GOP dare not face this election year. And it will likely all be sorted out (to the pre-planned agreement) in time for the GOP boys to look wise about it in November.

2. Anti-American?

Everytime these rightoid assholes get pissed at something it's anti-American. I don't know why they can't understand that the right to protest is fully American even though in the grand scheme of things we are piss-poor protestors compared to people in other parts of the world.

on edit: corrected typo

4. How ridiculous, on a few fronts...

but, this one in particular was a real scream...

"The letter from a group of Colorado lawmakers asked the president to use the National Guard and other troops "until effective barriers are in place to stop all illegal infiltration."

What National Guard? Oh, wait a minute, you mean those folks over in Iraq? Lot of good that will do for these angry repukes, eh?

[noahmijo]

7. Uh sorry but your president has given the National Guard a new job

it involves protecting illegal border crossers from Pakistan, Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Libya....you get the idea.

Hey somebody's got to keep Iraq "safe and secure" and ensure that those damn brown skinners don't try to break through the borders......oh wait nevermind..

Dammit!

13. Yupper

bushco got himself a couple of border issues going

[KurtNYC]

9. Oh...so they advocate an immediate withdrawl of Nat Gaurd troops

from Iraq? Cut n Run! Hmmmmmm. ;-)

5. Bush might say in his letter back

Don't you idiots know there are a lot of big corporate donors who don't want us to do anything about it cause they're making a lot of money paying them $.50 cents an hour.

6. that is such a crock of shit

"Anti-US protests?"

I saw the rally in DC, there were 1000s of american flags. i saw about a dozen mexican (and i think 1 el salvadoran) flags.

and USA! USA! was the # chant i heard, ahead of "si se puede!"

10. Speaking of invasion, none of these names seem to be Paiute:

"The letter was signed by Reps. Lauri Clapp, of Centennial; Kevin Lundberg, of Berthoud; Jim Welker, of Loveland; Richard Decker, of Fountain; Doug Lamborn and David Schultheis, of Colorado Springs; Debbie Stafford, of Aurora; and Ted Harvey, of Highlands Ranch."

11. People taking time off to attend the protests really pissed off Rs -

the Rs had to start washing their own dishes, cutting their own grass, watching their own kids . . . cleaning up after their own senile grandparents' "accidents" . . .

[Norquist Nemesis]

12. Meanwhile, they slap the employers on the back

telling them, "We've got your back!"

UGH! Disgusting pieces of...
