Just when the Immigration Hypochondriacs thought they had slayed the evil beast, news is out today that the beast may return in a few weeks and might actually survive: Despite the fact that it was primarily Republicans who voted against the maneuver, all the GOP lawmakers who spoke with FOX News were upbeat that the […]

Will we see any new border enhancements? No. Will we see 18,000 new border patrol agents? No. So the border will be as bad as it is today – thanks to the immigration hypochondriacs Will we see the long term illegal immigration population step forward to be background checked? No Will we see them pay […]

Tancredo, the ‘visionary’ of the immigration hypochondriacs, has declared open political war on those conservatives who support the comprehensive immigration bill now being debated in the US Senate. He will work to defeat politicians who do not bend to his ‘vision’: Rep. Tom Tancredo ratcheted up his presidential bid and anti-illegal immigration crusade today with […]

Desperately clinging to the hope we can be stuck with the mess we have now with illegal immigration for another 10 years or more, the immigration hypochondriacs are cheering a democrat Senator for getting a poison pill amendment through late last night. A fragile compromise that would legalize millions of unlawful immigrants risks coming unraveled […]

I admit I missed the fact Scott Rassmussen did ask the question I wanted to see. He did ask whether the nation would prefer the status quo over the compromise: Forty-nine percent (49%) of voters prefer no bill over the Senate bill. Just 32% prefer the legislative compromise over inaction. Now how many people are […]

Seems all the poison pill amendments meant to scuttle the Immigration Bill in the Senate are failing. Are all sides finally understanding that this subject is tanking everyone and that leaving us the status quo is a political kiss of death? Doubtful in my opinion. But it is interesting to see so many go down […]

End the debacle on immigration reform now. GOP: we have heard all your posturing, your chicken little stories, your demeaning comments. We realize the immigration hypochondriacs have declared the end of common ground for the conservative coalition which brought the Congress and Presidency into GOP hands. Fine. End it. Stop with the lame amendments. Vote […]

It looks like the Immigration Hypochondriacs might just make permanent the current amnesty program of useless laws and inflexible idealogues which has allowed the current situation to be created in the first place. Most people do not understand the stakes. Those that do, don’t care. If the Immigration Bill fails to pass, that will end […]
