Does anyone pay attention? Newt did not say amnesty or citizenship. As a matter of fact he said NO citizenship. His approach is, so far, the only one that makes sense. Please let me explain. There are, as quoted, (12) million illegals in the country. We are curently deporting about 200,000 per year. At that rate it would take (60) years to deport all of them, while costing billions of dollars. Let's face it, you can't just simply start rounding up Mexicans, drive them to the border and kick them out. The border patrol are not night club bouncers.
I have been a big supporter of Michelle Bachman, but last night she pretended to be a liberal by misquoting Newt, and lost some of my attention to her campain.
Mitt, nor Newt are evil people just because you don't agree with them.

sorry kroger, but newt is a total evil dirtbag. Just look at how he treated his one wife. Just look at the bullshit he pulled in congress. just look at the fanny mae salary etc etc etc. Its time to put this bozo to bed once and for all. His day in politics needs to come to an end. Let him go write books and sell them to all his newt groupies.

(60) years to deport all of them, while costing billions of dollars.
there are a few problems with these two statements. first, the 12 million figure. it is estimated there are between 10 and 20 million here. my guess is 20 million was closer to the time the economy and housing market were booming. my guess is 12 million is still low. however, no one really knows how many are here. as for the 200,000 figure, i haven't looked at it but based on what i'm seeing, that number is high. but that number seems high.
in any case, let's assume the numbers are correct. what's the biggest problem with the 60 years to deport them all statement?

Are you talking about the wife that Newt left on her deathbed? (The one that is still alive and in good health)
Or are you talking about the house that obama bought from Tony Rezko in the sketchiest of deals, yeah the guy that just got 10 years?
(No of course you're not talking about that)
Focus on the fact that the Republican Congress was responsible for balancing the budget while blowjob billy was doing whatever he did. Your idol was Speaker of the House.

Billions of dollars ..that's chicken feed ..
Granting amnesty to illegal immigrants would, over time, increase their use of means-tested welfare, Social Security, and Medicare...
Fiscal costs would rise in the intermediate term and increase dramatically when amnesty recipients reach retirement. Although it is difficult to provide a precise estimate, it seems likely that if 10 million adult illegal immigrants currently in the U.S. were granted amnesty, the net retirement cost to government (benefits minus taxes) could be over $2.6 trillion...........The Heritage Foundation report...........

Newt attacked pres. Clinton for adultery while he himself was committing adultery.
Newt sought punishment for Barney Frank for an impropper relationship with Fannie Mae, even though Newt took 1.6 million dollars to lobby congress to suppress regulation that could have saved us from the housing collapse.
Mitt is essentially the author of Obamacare
Mitt is for carbon tax schemes that will kill my state economy.
They are both the biggest turd sandwiches that the GOP could choose..... so of course they are the front runners.
Ron Paul or nothin' .
Stiln, nice try. Nobody is taking the bait because it looks like nobody takes you seriously on the subject of Ron Paul.

What do you expect someone to change their view because of a post on an internet forum.
You believe in a deregulated society/moving back to the 1700s and I believe you need to regulate and keep certain departments. We're at different ends of the spectrum on this. What is there to argue about?

So you cut different security departments. You're saying get rid of the CIA and the FBI and make one large sector that deals with domestic and international problems. I don't think you can combine the FBI and the CIA. Getting rid of or combining the railroad and highway administrations or combining other departments. Maybe you could do that but will it do.
RP wants to cut the education, energy, interior, and commerce departments. Privatize FAA ,TSA. Cut FDA funding.

If you look at our intelligence community it is ridiculous.
of course the CIA,
The DOD overseas the
AFISRA
INSCOM
DIA
MCIA
NGA
NRO
NSA
and ONI
There is also the OICI under the Dept of Energy,
I&A, CGI under the never ending umbrella of DHS (which has also co-opted local and state police)
FBI, DEA under the command of the DOJ,
INR, under the DOS
The Dept of the treasury also runs TFI,
not to mention the secret Service the IRS and probably 200 others I could not think of or am not allowed to know about.
What do the Depts. of Education, and Energy do that is so vital to our country that could not be handled at the state or local levels?
I see them as two utter failures. We keep throwing more and more money at the problems, but it will not fix them because Bureaucracy at the federal level will mostly fail.
Why is it so radical to look for something that actually works. DO you think that if we scrap the Dept. of Education that schools will cease to exist?
I think that if we scraped the Dept. of Energy that alternative energies would have a fighting shot, and fossil fuels would not get the asinine subsidies that they do.
I think that the TSA should be abolished.
I do not have a problem with the FAA be run by the industry that already runs it devoid of Govt. funds.
And I sure as shit would not mind abolishing Monsanto. err.... the FDA.
Here is an index of the gov. Depts. and agencies.
I bet even you could find one you think should be cut.

Newt and Mitt ARE evil because they are LIARS and FLIP-FLOPPERS! Oh that's right..they're just typical GOP candidates for ANY office! They'll be just fine! Newt is now the Fannie Mae "HISTORIAN"...HAHAHAHA! A real "Family Values" guy..that Newtie! LOL!LOL!

Rick, you think combining say the fbi and cia together solves anything. The jobs the cia works on and the jobs the fbi work on are still going to need to get done, so your still gonna need the same amount of people working. Or is it your belief that every fbi agent could keep doing the jobs they were doing, plus do the jobs 1 cia agent was doing?
also to just say lets get rid of this dept and that dept, is crazy. Do you know what all those depts you listed up above do? Are you an expert in all those depts?
Just spitting out lets cut this and lets cuts this, is easier said then done.

The DIA, NSA, and CIA could be easily combined. Compartmentalization is bad because it reduces the flow of intel between those who need it. One only needs to look at the 9/11 attack to understand that. The 9/11 hijackers were on the radar of the FBI for almost a year before they acted. The CIA had credible intel that an aerial attack using Commercial aviation was a strong possibility through foreign intercepts.
When it came across the FBI's desk that numerous people on their watch lists were involved in pilot training that should have been a slam dunk. Instead of fixing the problem they further fractured the situation with the DHS who now runs all local and state police.
It is a clusterfuck to put it mildly. One entity, 2 branches. Intelligence and Investigations. Cut all of the depts that were created to police citizens. This means ATF, DEA, IRS etc.
IF you want militarized units, force the pres to sign an executive order and use the military.
I am not an "expert" in those depts. but I can tell you what they all do, or their mission statements if you want. You can google them. Most of them are intelligence agencies.
Intelligence is by far my favorite subject to read about, so I feel that I have a pretty solid grasp on their workings. I also spend hours pouring over the intelligence reports that were released via the freedom of information act, and the Cables leaked by wikileaks.

Rick some of the things you've said lead me to believe you want to move backwards in time.
You want to cut some of the security departments within the CIA, but they're there to protect us. You want one department that does-it-all.. With plenty of new technology especially in the cyber world that terrorists are able to use to their advantage why would you want fewer departments. As you advance and move forward as a society new jobs are created as well as departments.
Why cut these programs, yeah I'm sure I could find many agencies in that list that I would cut and then what does it solve. What do you accomplish in doing that. How do you deem their jobs unimportant.
Removing all funding from the department of energy is a terrible idea. For profit businesses that produce alternative sources of energy don't often have the proper funding or adequate funding to research and do all the necessary lab work. None of these companies care at all about the lab work and the govt has the money to fund this research
Those businesses are only concerned with making a profit, that's fine if the local and state gov't want to fund their own programs but the feds have to be involved with also funding research in science and overlooking these institutions..
As for the dept of education yeah obviously schools will not be abolished but if the price were to go up drastically or even slightly for that matter and families couldn't send their children to school, then you have to home school your kids?
TSA and FAA, I don't believe can be privatized. They have to be regulated by the feds. When you're on an airplane and you hear "according to federal regulations smoking in a lavatory or tampering with a lavatory smoke detector is a federal crime." Not hearing this and plenty of other measures will now allow airlines to cut corners. What I said before about someone dying on an airline because of negligence is enough reason for me to have the feds overlook the FAA and TSA. If people want to bring guns or knives on airlines why shouldn't they be allowed to. Is that what you're saying. Why should that be regulated? Also what if airline companies want to hire pilots who aren't quite qualified but if they will work for a cheaper salary then why not hire them.
But why don't they just put these questions on the voting ballots and ask the American people what they think and if they ultimately feel safer when the federal government regulates airlines.
I can guarantee you it would be a 2/3 majority in favor of govt regulation

I would love to hear your take on what the CIA has protected us from, but that is another discussion.
I am not so sure I understand why a single transparent Government entity that has an investigations, and Intelligence wing would be a bad idea. What is the benefit of having dozens of departments that are doing the same thing. The redundancy is mind boggling.
I am not sure why the alternative energy companies need an entire department to hand out grants? I think that a single congressman could earmark funds to get this company to set up shop in their district. That is what earmarks are for. The Dept of energy is guilty of giving out 80% of government "green energy" loans to Obama contributors. That does not sit well with me, and again the subsidies to big oil are asinine, as are the ethanol subsidies. If these things had to come up in earmarks, and politicians were forced to atone for their earmarks for big oil or wasteful ethanol, I think there would be more discretion.
IF the government did not regulate the TSA and FAA how would that change the law that makes it illegal to smoke on a plane or tamper with smoke detectors?
If the DEA was abolished, Drugs would still be illegal unless legislation was passed in addition to the disbanding of the DEA.
Most of the regulations that help you sleep at night would still be law.
Any business has a right to say that they do not want firearms, or weapons in their place of business. I am not for allowing people to fly armed.
Why would an airline hire non-qualified pilots to fly their multi-million dollar investment?
Standards would still exist. Just as they do in industry regulated environments.
I agree Americans are terrified of everything. They do not realize that they have a better chance of being eaten by a great white shark than they do of being in a terrorist attack. Or a greater chance of dying in a car crash on the way to the airport than actually falling out of the sky in a plane crash.

Does anyone pay attention? Newt did not say amnesty or citizenship. As a matter of fact he said NO citizenship. His approach is, so far, the only one that makes sense. Please let me explain. There are, as quoted, (12) million illegals in the country. We are curently deporting about 200,000 per year. At that rate it would take (60) years to deport all of them, while costing billions of dollars. Let's face it, you can't just simply start rounding up Mexicans, drive them to the border and kick them out. The border patrol are not night club bouncers.
I have been a big supporter of Michelle Bachman, but last night she pretended to be a liberal by misquoting Newt, and lost some of my attention to her campain.
Mitt, nor Newt are evil people just because you don't agree with them.
Are kidding Newt has more baggage than samsonite, Also is Calypso the Newts 4th or 5th wife ?...I lost count of how many family values marriages he has had.
