Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


In the Republican debate, McCain and Romney sparred over immigration. Since immigration hawk Tom Tancredo has dropped out of the presidential race, he has been supporting Romney on the hot-button issue. Earlier that day Tancredo and Romney held a press conference to criticize McCain’s record on immigration policy.

The Romney campaign has also been running ads in New Hampshire that criticize McCain’s record on immigration policy.

During the debate Romney suggested McCain supported “amnesty.”

“It's not amnesty,'' McCain told the multimillionaire Romney. “And for you to describe it as you do in the attack ads, my friend, you can spend your whole fortune on these attack ads, but it will won't be true.''

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani later jumped in. “Ronald Reagan did amnesty. He actually did amnesty,” Giuliani said reminding everyone of former President Reagan’s 1986 amnesty program.

“I think he'd be in one of Mitt's negative commercials,” Giuliani quipped.

I'm not sure how you are right.

Amnesty involves a PARDON.
The people living here illegally are already living
here illegally so the government does nothing and
thus no pardon and no citizenship.

Again, you need to work on reading comprehension.

There seems to be a problem with that a pardon is
total, absolute, and requires NOTHING from the
individual who receives it.

Elmer Gantry (Huck) for Pres!
Huckabee lets MURDERS free in Arkansas who become my Missouri's problem when as a Jesus accepting criminal, they come here and Rape and Murder Missouri women! Thanks Huck for nothing.

Huckabee is Elmer Gantry reincarnate. He DESTROYED public taxpayer property hard drives on computers. You have to wonder what he needed to hide!!! Name any other state where this is established practice for an out going governor!

Judicial Watch, a non-profit political watchdog puts Huck at number 6 on their top ten list of corrupt politicians. We all know what good law abiding politicians come out of Hope Arkansas.

Hillary, Rudy and Obama make this list as well as others. Check it out and ask yourself if you want any of these 10?
