Isn’t Rep King the guy who’s supposed to be taking Mrs Rep King for a nighttime stroll in Fallujah?
November 30th, 2006 at 1:39 pmOkay, blood’s shooting out of my nose now…
November 30th, 2006 at 1:48 pmThis is the same guy who submitted photos of his “peaceful” vacation and said it was Iraq?
November 30th, 2006 at 1:49 pmHow do these peices of solid waste get to be in Congress?
November 30th, 2006 at 1:49 pmI note that commenters take issue with the Captain’s post that the Carpetbagger uses as support for his assertion. At that link, commenters provide additional information on prison population and the like. Perhaps the better solution would be for this site to have done its own research if it disputes the figures.
On a related note, remember the big ChicagoMarches in support of IllegalImmigration? All three major PoliticalParties in Mexico were involved in organizing those marches. If you still support those marches after learning that, then you support foreign forces attempting to meddle in internal U.S. politics.
November 30th, 2006 at 1:58 pmj, you’re gonna be a band member for sure. :)
November 30th, 2006 at 2:00 pmYup… once them there illegal immygrints figgered out how to build a car bomb, it was OVER for civilization!
November 30th, 2006 at 2:11 pmAll good Christians beware! The mud races are trying to take over and they’re gonna take all the good jobs and good women! Repent! Loud noises!
November 30th, 2006 at 2:14 pm#1 an #3, No, this is the guy who has illegal aliens cutting his lawn.
November 30th, 2006 at 2:17 pmWasn’t he in the KKK with Lott and Strom “Turdmound”?
November 30th, 2006 at 2:22 pmThat would mean that immigrants have murdered ~4000 people in a year. That’s ~1/4 the total murders. Does that sound right? No?
November 30th, 2006 at 2:23 pmAnother problem that the DO NOTHING Congress didn’t move on. As much as I despise our president who rises above the king of United State Warmongers, Lyndon Johnson, with his disregard for morality, civility, and human decency, at least he and the Senate had a fair immigration policy.
Let’s assume this racist is correct for the sake of argument( I have not researched the stats to find support for his claims) SO WHAT.
There are millions and millions of children who die every year from hunger. Those figures dwarf your questionable claims. Do you know how many lives a TRILLION Dollars would save? Give it to Haliburton, who Cheney was the CEO for and that’s just a conicidence, UH HUH. Give it to Iraqi’s (who hate our guts)to build schools and hospitals.Give it to the war profiteers. Watch the children die of hunger.
If that’s being religious and following the teachings of Christ, count me out.
The Religious Right who will no longer be pulling the strings of these defeated and demoralized scumbags. The Scare tactics no longer work. All is not RIGHT for the world and that’s a VERY good thing.
November 30th, 2006 at 4:19 pmI thank the lord for Congressman like Representative Steve King. Illegal Immigrants should understand that it’s a privilege to become an American citizen. They already broke the law and committed a sin (thou shalt not lie) by coming onto our soil illegaly and falsifying government documents.
November 30th, 2006 at 4:40 pmdaryll, your capitalization of Illegal Immigrants confers object status to them. Are they objects to you? Or people?
November 30th, 2006 at 5:52 pmDidn’t Jesus say something about that which you do to the lowliest of his kids, you do to him? How do you square that with your pontificating prattling?
Some people won’t be satisfied until vigilantes are hunting down immigrants and lynching them.
November 30th, 2006 at 7:11 pmI feel like we’ve lost the last 50 years.

Unless your idol Mr. King has proof of his statements, I think he is a lying, manipulating, culture-baiting slime ball. You should be praying to the Lord (notice that I capitalized Lord!) that he finds it in himself to stop lying instead of praising him.
