Just put this bumper sticker on your car. Whoever honks is a Democrat, even if they are registered as a Republican.

Guard the Borders
By Heidi at Euphoric Reality
Last Tuesday, the Democrats won the majority in both the House and the Senate. Within a day, President Bush was gloating on national TV about how he could now finally pass his Amnesty bill with a Democrat-controlled Congress. This galling statement by the President was reinforced by the White House spokesman:
White House spokesman Tony Snow reacted to the change in House control by allowing they’re disappointed, but that it presents some intriguing opportunities, such as passing comprehensive immigration reform which failed in the previous Republican House.
Meanwhile, conservatives are shocked – SHOCKED! – by this open defiance of the vast majority of Americans’ wishes. “What on earth is Bush thinking?!,” they wonder. Howard Sutherland says there’s no need for such surprise, and here’s why:
If George W. Bush has been consistent about anything it is his determination to keep the United States open to the mass migration of Mexicans and other Latin Americans.
[…]
George W. Bush is a true believer in amnesty for illegal aliens, at least for Mexicans, and perhaps in some sort of EU-style shotgun marriage of Canada, the United States and Mexico as well.
[…]
That he is sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, not the welfare of Mexicans, does not faze him. The amnesty/guest worker program is President Bush’s lodestar, the legacy he sincerely wants to leave America. In the teeth of all the evidence, he believes that we would be better for it and it’s just the right thing to do. It is more important to him than Iraq, so important that he jettisoned the GOP’s best chance to hold on to the Congress rather than back away from it.
So with the President dancing on the political graves of the massacred GOP, it looks like a plan for amnesty is a sure thing. Now pundits everywhere, on both sides of the aisle, are breathlessly calculating where millions of new voters will fit into the political landscape of the future. I’ve watched and taken part in several debates on which party will end up scooping the Newly Amnestied Immigrant vote.
Here are a few viewpoints I’ve seen expressed about the powerful new Latino voting bloc:
Real friends… /OTP

I recieved this via email from a real friend, “Hot” (the Sure Shot Hotshot *heh*). Make of it what you will. I certainly did…
Are you tired of those sissy “friendship” poems that always sound good, but never actually come close to reality? Well here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship. You won’t see any cutesy little smiley faces in this list just the stone cold truth of our great friendship. And in bold letters so that all of you can read it.
1. When you are sad — I will help you plot revenge against the sorry man who made you sad.
2. When you are blue — I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.
3. When you smile — I will know you finally got a weekend without the kids.
4. When you are scared — I will rag on you about it every chance I get.
5. When you are worried — I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining.
6. When you are confused — I will use little words [and speak v e r y s l o w l y–ed..
7. When you are sick — Stay away from me
until you are well again. I don’t want whatever you have.8. When you fall — I will point and laugh at your clumsy butt.
Now, that’s a real friend… Back atcha, Hot. As the saying goes, “Friends help you move …real friends help you move bodies.”
