Bush Trying To Sneak Amnesty Past Us?

   It would appear that the Bush clan is up to no good when it comes to the amnesty issue and illegal's. It looks as if the White House has has put together a new plan but instead of presenting the plan to the congress or the public, they have taken to inviting certain members  of congress to the White House so that they can sell them a certain bill of goods. See for yourself.

Bush trying to sneak another amnesty in on us.

According to an e-mail that I received from NumbersUSA.com, the White House is trying to sneak one in on those who oppose amnesty.  

(This is from the email)
The story from the White House is not yet entirely clear to us -- or to our allies in Congress. But this is what is emerging:

While the media (and all of us activists) have been mostly focused on blocking Sen. Kennedy's latest (yet-unveiled) amnesty, Karl Rove and his White House crew have been shuttling Senators and Representatives in and out almost non-stop trying to build momentum for THEIR newly hatched attempt at an amnesty.

The groups trekking to the White House are mostly Republican but are including Democrats, too.

We are told that at least a few supposedly anti-amnesty Members of Congress have already given their approval to this new White House plan. Their willingness to do so is reportedly because the White House argues that new features make it possible to give illegal aliens citizenship without distracted voters recognizing that it is an amnesty.

Among the features appear to be echoes of the "step-out-step-in" portion of the Pence Amnesty plan from last year where at some point illegal aliens have crossed the border for a few hours or days before coming back in and applying for a path to citizenship.

Although the White House is not saying so directly, it appears that it plans to have a massive increase in annual green cards in order to accommodate the step-out-step-in citizenship applicants.

The White House is preying on the fear of many Members of Congress that if they don't soon pass something that looks like a solution to the 12 million illegal aliens, they will suffer political fallout.

Only you can make them more fearful of endorsing anything that allows illegal aliens to remain permanently in this country.

We must stop any momentum that may already have developed for introducing this.

Your own Members may already have given at least a tentative pledge of support.

Email Sent To John Edwards Supporters Blasts Fox News

"Enough is enough. It's time to send a clear message to Fox News and their allies that their right-wing talking points and temper tantrums won't go unchallenged anymore  -  when it comes to what Democrats should do in the Democratic primary, we'll decide - no matter what they report:

Fox News has already proven they have no intention of providing "fair and balanced" coverage of any Democrat in this election.

In recent weeks they have run blatant lies about Senator Obama's background. And Fox was only too happy to give Ann Coulter a platform to spew more hate a few days after her bigoted attack on Senator Edwards and the gay community.

Now it's time for Democrats to stand together and send a clear message to Roger Ailes, Fox News and all the rest of them: bias isn't balance, but turning tables is fair.

The truth is, Fox News can "report" whatever they want. And when it works for us, we'll deal with them on our terms. But this campaign is about responsibility and accountability, and we need to send the message to Fox that if they want to be the corporate mouthpiece of the Republican Party more than they want to be an impartial news outlet, they shouldn't expect Democrats to play along."

      From an email sent to John Edwards supporters by Deputy Campaign Manager Jonathon Prince.  You can read the entire email Here.

   Along these same lines, somewhat, John Edwards may want to send Ann Coulter a " thank you ' for her comments which she made about him while flapping her face at the CPAC meeting last week.

   John Edwards has been getting much more attention since Coulter's verbal slander and he deserves all of the free publicity that he can get.

   You may want to visit his website  when you have the time and see what he has to say about the issues and a few other things.
