Bennett to advise Mitt

Hold On A Minute | 6:11 a.m. Oct. 25, 2007

Mitt, tell me it's not true ! DO NOT let bob bennett advise you on illegal alien issues. He will singlehandedly cause your defeat on this one issue alone.

Bob Bennett is a great many in every way and would be a valuable adviser.

Bob Bennett is a great man in every way that matters. He will be a valuable asset on the Committee.

Bob Bennett is a fine, honest man and a very effective senator. He also is known for his sharp political instincts, which makes me wonder why he'd consent to advising Romney. Again, you have to give "Old Slick" credit for getting highly credible people like Bennett on his team.

Senator Bennett would make a great addition to anyones team. Smart, factual and honest very few in the senate can say that.....like the Bible give me five good men. Hmmmmm numbers do seem to shrink in the halls of congress

Mitt before you get in too deep with Bob, you need to checkout his position on a few issues, especially illegal immigration. On this issue he is not going to be of much help especially since he is opposed by most Utahns and will detract from your own somewhat limited credibility on the issue.

I agree that Mitt should stay away from amnesty for illegals. I for one along with my spouse and children will be voting against Senator Bennett because of his stance on the issue.

Seems like a very smart move. Bob Bennett is both heady and wise. Sometime when you can take a few moments, get Senator Bennett's advise on ways to reform the federal government's complex and cumbersome tax system - to increase both equity and ability to pay. The Senator has led the charge to do away with the voluminous Tax Code and simplify - simplify - simplify! We're pulling (and voting) for you!

Bad choice-Remember Bennett scuttled the "protect of the Flag". He wrote me that free speech (burning the Flag)was more important than any recognition or protection of the flag.

The Dream Act is a Continuing Amnesty (the gift that keeps on giving!)

Unlike the Amnesty bills from the Senate for the past 2 years, the DREAM Act is a continuing program, not just a one-time amnesty.

The American people overwhelmingly rejected amnesty a few months back for all those illegal aliens currently living here, but the DREAM Act will continue year after year, as long as illegal aliens continue to bring their children across the border with them.

Did you realize, Senator, that the DREAM is a permanent, cycling amnesty with no end, not just "one-time" amnesty?

Senator, exactly how many times do the American people have to demand NO MORE AMNESTY before our elected officials honor our request?

Another bill is coming up and this is a chance for you to redeem yourself.

ACTION IS NEEDED!!!

HR 1940 Bill would eliminate automatic birthright citizenship for anchor babies!
