Tancredo sends immigration agents to raid Durbin press conference!

[Dr.Phool]

This is outrageous!

Will Pelosi demand an apology? Will Harry invite him to step into the ring for a few rounds?

Nah, they'll probably try to reimburse him for the dime he dropped.:sarcasm:


We apologize. They laugh at us.

Tancredo Calls ICE Against Durbin Press Conference
By Eric Kleefeld - October 24, 2007, 9:55AM

Although he's only in the House, Tom Tancredo has taken his fight against illegal immigration to the Senate side — by calling Immigration and Customs Enforcement and asking them to raid a press conference yesterday by Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL), at which Tancredo mistakenly believed illegal aliens would be attending.

Durbin was presenting a bill that would confer legal status upon illegal immigrants who have graduated high school and will attend college or serve in the Armed Forces for two years. Accompanying Durbin were three immigrant students, all of whom are in the United States legally on temporary visas. No action was taken by ICE.

"If we can't enforce our laws inside the building where American laws are made, where can we enforce them?" Tancredo said in a statement.
:puke: :wtf: :wtf: :argh: :argh: :argh: :argh:

I can't wait for the Tancredo administration. There'll be a jail on every block.

2. Just when you think it can't get any worse... it does.

5. I think we know how it'll play out

The Repukes will defend him and say that he was right, while Nancy and Steny will want standards of decorum established.

Actually as some have said about Congressman Stark's apology, it isn't a big deal! Not my view but I think this will be the same view that they will take regarding this episode.

4. how do these people get elected?

[Dr.Phool]

6. They don't get elected. God appoints them.

At least according to Katherine Harris.

8. It's called CORPORATE OWNED & PROGRAMMED voting machines.

And until we get rid of them, we'll never be able to vote in people who will support this country, as opposed to supporting the corporations.
That includes the upcoming hillary clinton reign.

:kick:

7. How come the silence on this story?

not only was it a RW religious nut like Tancredo, but during a senator's meeting? I've seen nothing locally on this, and Durbin is a popular senator here.

9. These out-of-control repukes need to be put in their place! What is it with them and their

authoritarian personalities? Remember the OTHER asshole repuke, Bill Thomas, who called the police on the Congressional Democrats because they wouldn't leave a committeee meeting the repukes were holding? He called the freakin' POLICE on his fellow Congress critters! Now Tancredo pulls this shit?

I ask you all, WHEN THE HELL ARE ARE DEMOCRATS GOING TO START FIGHTING BACK AGAINST THIS CRAP? WHEN IS ENOUGH GOING TO BE ENOUGH? WHEN WILL THEY LEARN TO TAKE A GUN TO A GUN FIGHT INSTEAD KOWTOWING TO THESE FREAKIN' FASCIST FUCKS?????

This is RIDICULOUS! The Democrats are looking like a bunch of freakin' FOOLS for not fighting back against these people! We need a WAR ROOM with some MEAN and VICIOUS Democratic strategists! They need to do SOMETHING about this shit.

10. F*cking first generation hater. Tancrado didn't serve in Vietnam because he claimed depression!
