Half of Republican voters think McCain will stop illegal immigration-Give them the truth Monday
DEAR OPPONENTS OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION,
Today's polls show John McCain still poised to win a large majority of the delegates on Tuesday .
... unless the 500,000 of you can reach out to millions of Republican friends, families and acquaintances to correct their incredibly mistaken notion about McCain's immigration positions.
The Washington Post/ABC News poll this weekend asked likely Republican voters which candidate, "regardless of who you may support," do you "trust most to handle immigration issues."
The answer will shock you:
47% McCain
22% Romney
10% Huckabee
5% Paul
This political illiteracy among Republican voters threatens disastrous consequences. Please share this information widely.
Some open-borders apologists, such as syndicated columnist Ruben Navarrette, say 47% of Republicans like McCain on immigration because they support McCain's idea that the best way to solve illegal immigration is to make nearly all the illegal aliens into legal residents and U.S. citizens.
That is pure wishful thinking on the part of open-borders advocates. Reputable polls for two years have shown that an overhwelming majority of Republicans (and a majority of Independents and Democrats) has opposed every one of McCain's attempts to legalize illegal aliens with an amnesty.
I believe that at least half of those 47% Republicans who express confidence in McCain's immigration plans simply don't know the truth.
And the truth is exceptionally easy to find out.
For two months, McCain answers every immigration question by saying he will "secure the border" and that "I know how to do it."
But records of his past actions show that he has repeatedly voted against funding the border fence, against funding more Border Patrol, against expanding interior immigration agents. About the only time McCain has backed more security on the border is when it is tied to giving an amnesty.
McCain has held border security hostage for years. He has been willing to work for border security only if Americans pay the "ransom" of giving him an amnesty.
But I am willing to accept that McCain is finally serious about securing the border, except that he really hasn't provided a serious, detailed plan for how he will do it.
Read McCain's statements in recent interviews to see how terribly the "straight-talker" zig zags to confuse voters about his ultimate plan to grant a gigantic amnesty.
McCain laid out his Immigration Plan in radio ads in South Carolina:
1. "Secure the borders."
2. Deport around 2 million illegal aliens who have committed felonies.
3. Treat the other 10-18 million illegal aliens with "compassion" by letting them keep their U.S. residency and their American jobs and eventually become citizens.
McCain never expresses compassion for the 23 million working-age Americans without any college who do not currently have a job-or the millions more Americans whose real wages have stagnated or declined in recent years because their occupations were flooded by foreign labor.
Although the nation already has nearly 40 million foreign workers and dependents, McCain has repeatedly said that we need to import even more. During the last two years, he has pushed various bills that would double and triple immigration.
Every Republican you know needs to get a copy of this email (and the one I sent Saturday night).
The 500,000 of you-even if every one of you votes (and surely you will if your state is holding a primary)-are not enough to shift the results of Tuesday's elections unless you multiply your influence by educating at least 10 other voters. And ask each of them to educate at least 5 more.
Look at all of McCain's pro-amnesty votes here.
Click here to see all the times McCain has worked against American workers and helped greedy businesses procure foreign labor.
View McCain's whole abysmal history of failing to protect our national security at the borders and our economic security at the workplace.
If millions of misled, misinformed and misguided Republicans hand McCain a giant victory on Tuesday, you can be sure that the generally pro-amnesty media will sing the song of Ruben Navarrette who said this weekend:
" ... depending on how you ask the question and whether you use words such as `amnesty' or `earned legalization,' a majority of Americans support the comprehensive approach that McCain proposed. It's starting to look as if the Republican Party's anti-illegal immigration zealots may represent a loud and obnoxious faction of conservative voters, but a small one at that."
I know you won't want to look at headlines on Wednesday morning declaring a victory for Comprehensive Amnesty positions and then wish you had helped all the other Americans who were busy trying to educate Republican voters on Monday.

Our strategy is to vote for Obama tomorrow - to help slay the Hildabeast - and then in the
general election to vote Romney ... mainly because of the Mexican invasion mess.
It ain't perfect ... but it's the best we have left, at the moment ... as we see it.0 -
Anyone who believes McCain has a favorable immigration position simply isn't looking at the record.
Zip, I don't think you will see Romney on the ballot come the general election, unless you plan to write him in.0 -
Funny, I re-watched the recent CNN debate last night. McSwine was asked 3 times if he would vote for his 2006 bill on immigration which contained amnesty. Each time he refused to answer the question. First by saying, it will never be voted on, then when pressed, saying that the American people have made it clear what they want is secure borders, over and over but never answering the question. He's a joke and a lyer. 0 -
our primary ain't until may. 0 -

The media did not get the word out on the deal he was cutting with the Hispanics in Florida, and the host of the California primary airing helped McSwine to shield his shady Florida dealings in their continuing efforts to dupe the American public into believing he no longer backs his amnesty plan.0 -
For Kimi: Thanks, and I couldn't agree more. Some political pundits have said if the final candidates are McCain and Clinton/Obama, it will be Democrat v. Democrat. I was an LEO in California back in 1979-1989 and saw what the illegals did to that once great state. 0 -
Zipperzap, I am with your plan. Right now, Romney is our only hope. McCain is little better than the HillBilly. 0 -

... dunno ... tomorrow will be the show card ... if Romney doesn't make it, the party's over ... in more ways than one![:0]
As I've said before, I'm glad, in some ways, I'm older ... closer to packin' it in as a white gowned, 'cloud seated, winged harp player,' than some poor little naive twenty something year old who is still looking forward to living in 'The Greatest Nation on Earth'. I can see the sun settin' already. They're in for some major jolts and crashes in the next few decades.
... The Golden Years are something of the distant past, now. I just hope the last Americans standing turn out the lights when they leave ... although, I doubt there'll be any electricity for the few lights left when that happens!

I sure would not want to be young in this day, and age![xx(]

Since I retired I've thought more about our daughter (27) and the world she will have to face and I really feel sad. I probably won't live long enough to see the complete collapse, but I believe this election cycle is a pretty clear predictor of the downward spiral we are in; I fear the outcome will only suggest at what rate it occurs. It will probably be up to our kids to turn it around if possible! [:(]0 -
I've said it before and I'll say it again. McCain is getting high poll numbers (IF he actually is) because the Liberal Media is promoting him.
And they are promoting him, not because they like him. But because they believe that many true conservatives WILL NOT vote for him. But rather just sit this one out. And he will be easiest Republican for the Democrats to DEFEAT.
He was won a few primaries, mostly in Blue states who may like him because he is a Liberal.
But I believe Super Tuesday will prove a far different outcome.
He may get a couple. But nowhere near a majority.0 -
Mcamnesty is milking the war hero thing endlessly and because the average American doesn't really pay attention to politics it works. Most Americans are idiots when it comes to politics. I could never vote for Mcamnesty.
P.S. I heard Romney is leading in California now. I'm not crazy about him but ANYBODY is better then Mcamnesty.0 -

Man, that would be something if Romney could win in California!
And, the ads that McCain is having run about his POW time and military service just proves that the man cannot connect with what is and what is not shameful. Something is seriously wrong with the guy, and I don't just mean his egotistical imbalance either.0 -
