Chris Thompson - 04 Oct 2006 02:14 GMT we just got rid of those prices here. but my point was that diesel has only dropped 50 cent from the $3 mark. when reg unleaded has dropped under $2.

Gas prices fall and you whine about conservative greed. Why doesn't the Dem party praise higher gas prices which result in conservation?

Whenever I visited Utah to go skiing the gas prices were considerably lower than here in AZ. Are they now higher? Gas in Phoenix is $2.19.

Being that I live in one of the boarder towns, where they are coming through, destroying OUR property, the property of the hard working ranchers, killing OUR friends and family (the illegal's killed the mother and father of a co-worker two years ago running from the police), why shouldn't we keep them in their own country?
> It would be keepin illegals in Mexico, right? > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >> >> Ken NapalmHeart - 06 Oct 2006 01:08 GMT > It would be keepin illegals in Mexico, right? The difference is that we would be building it, not the Mexican government. The Berlin wall was built by the East Germans to keep East German subjects in their socialistic, despotic, country.
Budd Cochran - 06 Oct 2006 03:33 GMT So, you're concerned over a matter of perspective. Mexico isn't going to build it, no money, and it would make them be responsible for their poor and unemployed.

I'll bet the East Germans that wanted freedom thought that perspective was rather important. It was their own government shooting at them.

Budd Cochran - 06 Oct 2006 14:40 GMT I think you missed the point I was trying to make.
We have enough problems of our own; homeless, needy, etc. that need our help and we need to spend less on those that are coming into the US illegally.
We need to quit funding their educations, mass baby production, drug cartels, gangs and so on with American taxpayer dollars.
If they want to come to the US, streamline the immigration process, but deport anyone that is here illegally. Kids born in the US to illegals are legally US citizens, but that law needs to be revised because I don't believe in splitting up families.
These items alone would probably free up millions if not billions of tax dollars . . .more for the Liberals to waste. They ought to jump on it like ravening wolves.

They ought to jump on it like > ravening wolves. I can agree with the points you have made here. Fortifying our border doesn't negate these points, nor vice-versa. Strong border control doesn't mean that people who want to immigrate legally shouldn't be able to do so. We need both.
Ken
Budd Cochran - 07 Oct 2006 02:36 GMT Exactly. If they want to come in legally; fill out the paper work, prove they are not wanted criminals, and swear under penalty of death they do not want to overthrow our country, then no problem.
The laws are on the books, they need to be modified if needed, and enforced.
And a hundred foot high fence wouldn't hurt, either.

We need an amendment that states 1 parent must be a legal US citizen in order for their children born here to be citizens.
miles - 06 Oct 2006 01:41 GMT > I never thought I'd see the day we'd need a "Berlin" wall to keep people > out. Mexico blasts the US for wanting to put up a wall or use the military to guard the border and prevent illegal crossings. Ironically Mexico has posted military troops all across its southern border with Guetamala for that very purpose. Mexico has a huge problem keeping illegal immigrants from coming north into Mexico.

Far lower in one state than historically for political motivation? It's supposed to be the reps who can magically control oil and gas prices. AZ is currently Dem run.
