You guys are really brilliant. You should take a bow. Bill, only when you put it that way did I realize how only you and Hugh could have the right answers. You guys are really brilliant.

ZERO cred on the border or rule of law as it pertains to illegals, not much passion about anything constitutional (like our rights) and the old Indian reference whenever everything else fails. Of course we realize that population control through border security and national sovereignty would solve many of these issues which in fact puts US on the same side with the AMERICAN INDIANS!! Hugh

That's wild. But so is Dr. Kirkwood so I consider myself in good company. You want a moratorium on illegal crossings? I see. I support the fence, but I do not support deporting 20 million immigrants. I have a calculator. Our housing market couldn't take another 5 million empty houses. And since you've provided zero disclosure I guess we can only assume that you support Louis Farrakhan.

I applaud your prior professional accomplishments! I also applaud you stating your many positions. But with that said, my suspicions were correct - you and I are on different planets. You support McCain - I consider McCain to be a Traitor to the United States. You want more legal immigration - I want a moratorium for perhaps 10 years, then we can re-examine. You are falling for "baby waving", a technique used in the past to use children to advance an agenda. Of course it's costing us a ton of money by using our emergency care for the illegals. But the answer is not to start paying for them - the answer is to humanly send them home. I could go on, (you appear to have a soft spot for Obama, for example). And of course, I'm used to the label of "bigot" - it's often used when the argument is lost (or not even properly debated!). Jack,

It's not worth my time to answer posts #4 and 5 above, especially since Lohman appears to want to give the U.S. back to the Indians. Where does one even begin with someone holding such views? Talk about being on different planets! But the scary thing is Americans are so dumbed down today that a goodly percentage of them will buy into such tripe! We as a people no longer use our God given brains and critically think through issues. We are thus so susceptible to the likes of Lohman and Kirkwood.

In fact I have no vested interests whatsoever. But I have my doubts about Doc Kirkwood and Jack Lohman.

Of course, when you already have your job and health insurance it's easy to shun all common sense fixes. Thanks for the light side, captain_menace, and to the dark side, Bill.

Socialists and Communists are the worst hate filled mass murderers of the twentieth century.

Everyone knows that God wanted us to kill all of the Indians and take their land. As for healthcare, everyone knows its much more effective to end our health programs and simply route all care through the emergency room. If it's not an emergency then go take an aspirin.
