One of the groups I belong to ejected a member who had posted radical posts that were out of the topic, immigration.  I don’t like such ugliness.  I actually engaged in a lengthy debate as to why, in a group devoted to Immigration, he posted an anti semitic Gun Control article along with one of the foulest pieces of photoshop I have seen.

His response was essentially that guns are a core right and taking them away opens the door for more abuses, like amnesty.  Oh and it wasn’t offensive according to him.

Opinions vary.

The point of my posts to the group was that allowing tangential debates like that distract from the core issues of illegal immigration.

Ken Schram also is upset about the distractions to the debate, but he in his paranoia sees the Snark in every shadow.

If you discuss workplace enforcement, Illegals receiving amnesty, Social services for illegals and sanctuary cities, you are engaging in the distraction form the only issue he cares about:  The border fence.

Ken, whom I greatly respect, is a fool, and I will call him one to his face if I ever have the chance.

His tunnel vision on a fence is the distraction, because while border security is a huge issue, it is still only one element of many that need to be dealt with concurrently, not consecutively.

You cannot wait for a fence and then deal with amnesty and workplace enforcement.  Why?  Because the fence won’t stop those coming in, and while you are building the fence, they will still come.

You have to deal with the magnet that draws them here as well.

Look at the border.  We have to decide how to fence or wall off thousands of miles of borders that encompass all manner of terrain.  Deserts, rocky wastes, forests, rivers, lakes, canyons and even private land.  Oh did you forget we have a northern border too?

Teddy had one too many.  Ignore the pictures and the photoshops in the video clip, they are the work of the person who posted it.  Just listen to the clip.  The money quote is with about 13 seconds left.

The liberals cannot stop living in Vietnam, so it’s no wonder no wonder they want us to lose this war the same way we lost Vietnam.  This is nostalgic and just like old times…The country would benefit from them learning to live in the present, not the past.

The Senate is pulling an all nighter as the Democrats try to force the Republicans to help them determine the best way to lose the war in Iraq.

Well, that’s the reality of what this is.  The Democrats are are desperately afraid the surge might work as we approach the September follow up report, so they are on a full scale attack to lose before the military screws up and wins.

The last thing we need now is even a hint of victory.

Thank God they are so foresighted as to take the initiative and help us find a sure defeat.

I hope that someday we find a few Democrats who understand the military.  Lieberman is lonely.
