Rudy Giuliani Watch: Rudy Opposes Senate Immigration Bill
Cross Posted from the FullosseousFlap's Dental Blog
Presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani signs autographs after speaking in New York, Monday, May 21, 2007. Giuliani was there to receive the endorsement of local New York politicians for his 2008 presidential run.
Rudy opposes the now postponed Senate immigration bill.
The Quotes:
The former New York Mayor said he would like for there to be a system or database that would allow the government to “know everybody who is in the United States, who comes here from a foreign country”.
“If you make that your goal then everything follows from that or leads to that,” he added. “There should be a tamper proof id card, biometric id card that everyone who comes here from a foreign country should have. In order to make sure you identify everyone, in order to be secure.”
“Let’s see what happens in the debates they have now, the Senate has to debate it, the House as to debate it,” said Giuliani. “Let’s see if they can put something like that in, it that ends up giving us more security. The present version of the bill however … I don’t think that accomplishes that.”
This leaves McCain as the ONLY GOP Presidential candidate supporting the bill as submitted - out on an immigration limb that has little or no GOP voter base support.
McCain can make his quips about the Mittster but at the end of the Memorial Day recess he will have to either deliver and vote for an acceptable bill or………
And it is American National Security and not political endorsements that are driving the Mayor’s position.

I'm interested in how the Mayor would alter this bill, or what legislation he thinks will solve the problem.
How Long Do We Have?
About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier: A democracy is always temporary in nature: It simply cannot exist as a Permanent form of government. A
Democracy will continue to exist up Until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship.
The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning cf history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. From bondage to spiritual faith:
2. From spiritual faith to great courage:
3. From courage to liberty:
4. From liberty to abundance:
5. From abundance to complacency:
6. From complacency to apathy:
7. From apathy to dependence:
8. From dependence back into bondage:
Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the 2000 Presidential election:
Population of counties won by:
Gore 127 million
Bush 143 million
Square miles of land won by:
Gore 580,000
Bush 2,427,000
States won by:
Gore 19
Bush 29
Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:
Gore 13.2
Bush 2.1
Professor Olson adds: In aggregate, the map of the territory Bush won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of this great country.
Gore's territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare.
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the complacency and apathy phase of Professor Tyler s definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the governmental dependency phase. If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to the twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.
Apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.
