Amnesty comes back on Monday, and what you can do about it

From this:
President Bush's comprehensive immigration reform, defeated in June, will make a second appearance this week when the Senate takes up various pro-amnesty amendments submitted to the Department of Defense funding bill, H.R. 1585, which is scheduled for debate.

While not "comprehensive" reform, the latest initiative attempts to pass key provisions of the earlier immigration measure piece by piece by attaching amendments to unrelated bills, a process critics characterize as "stealth."

Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin, D-Ill., has re-introduced another version of his "Dream Act," this time as an amendment (SA 2237) to the DOD funding bill...

As usual, I'll point out that the way to actually have long-lasting change is to discredit pro-amnesty politicians. Dick Durbin would be a wonderful choice if he has any public appearances, but the presidential candidates are great choices as well.

All you need to do is go to their public appearances, ask them tough questions about their stances, and then upload their responses to Youtube. The idea is to ask them questions that make them look as bad as possible. If that's done enough times, it will have a very salubrious impact on not just the immigration issue but on many other issues as well.

I've sent my faxes, e-mails and start on phone calls moday morning. I'm not going to send dozens of postcards this time though, unless the amendment has two weeks or more of consideration before its final vote. Thank you for the update and doing your part to keep America within the realm of civilization.

John S. Bolton the political facts are if people who want freedom will not fight for civilization as we see it will disappear.
