He just added the DREAM Act to a defense appropriations bill. Talk about out of touch and tone deaf.

Have any of you actually read the DREAM Act?

Part of it, states (and paraphrasing it), that an illegal immigrant that serves in the US Military and discharged with an honorable discharge, becomes a US Citizen. So yes, that part could easily be understood why its included in a defense bill.

The orgins of this Act, are a rehashing of Student Adjustment Act, of 2001 (a Republican controlled House, as its H.R. 1918).

But do read the wikipedia link, as I find that rather agreeable. Someone serves out their 'time', by paying a US institution of higher learning student fee's & books, gets a degree, and lives here in the USA. Or, we can up the entry requirements for the US Military to a pre-2002 level for soldiers (so we dont have quite a many 1st-3rd time offenders). Either way, the person benefits the USA.

Spare me the racist crap, and just explain to me, why this isn't a good idea? To have this Act passed?

I think it is a good idea, it's always bothered me how children who are brought illegally to the US can suffer so much for the criminal activity of their parents.

The people who tend to vote in the Primaries are the most extreme of their party. Independents, which make up the largest voting block, could not vote. Even the Republicans know this.

Shame on you for doubting it.

Status: offline 		I very rarely watch the talking heads, Brainia, so that would be a "no." Besides, I'm sure I can count on Basiji and co. to tell us all how awful they are.

If they have a base of motivated voters, things can get very interesting.

Its the RINOS who are dividing the Republicans.

Tea Partyrs are working towards restoring Conservatism so there is a distinction between the two major parties and that voters can actually have a choice.

Isn't labeling a large percentage of your own party as not being worthy of calling themselves Republicans dividing the GOP?

Joether, the U.S. has been giving U.S. Citizenship to foreign nationals who are willing to serve in our military for 50 years or so, WAY before this "Dream Act" was a twinkle in Harry the Hat's eye. Those are two seperate issues!
Obviously they included this in "The Dream Act" to try to make it more,..."palatable."
When the "Dream Act" fails to pass we'll *still* be giving U.S. Citizenship to foreign nationals who are willing to serve in our military.
Harry the Hat just handed Angle the election.

First of all, I don't have a party.

Second of all, I been telling dipshit democrats out here for a good while that you should be loving tea party folk - at least for now.

If Angle beats reid, lower case intended, now that would be just fucking awesome.

You don't listen well, do you rlm? I like seeing them all fall.

Mainstream GOP pundits, and for that matter, left wing pundits haven';t been right on much at all this election season.

If there's shame involved, it's hoping a majority of people divide themselves so the sorry pieces of shit in office can stay there.

I swear to God, it's like vote for me, I SUCK less than the other one.

And, I'm independent. I'll vote for one them if they're running against an incumbent.
