It's too bad you didn't add another question to the illegal alien section: How do you propose to deter the hordes of third world people clamoring to enter the United States if you grant a pathway to citizenship to the millions who are here illegally already?
Border fence? Well, up to 40% came as tourists and students and just forgot to leave. How will the fence deter them?
Hmmmm. That's a poser, isn't it Chris?
A. Good Republican | 10:49 a.m. June 21, 2008
If you like the way things are in Washington, by all means vote for the incumbent Rep. Cannon. However, if you are upset about the way the republicans ran the show from 2000-2006 while in full control of both the White House and Congress, but you aren't a liberal democrat your choice should be Jason Chaffetz. Remember this primary is your final choice. No other party has a chance in the Nov general election.

Electing the same candidate election after election, but expecting a different result is political insanity, or stupidity. The only real way to get control of our government in Washington is to start getting rid of entrenched incumbents no matter the party, and that includes our two senators. Many think that the problems are caused by the representatives and Senators from other states, but we, in Utah, need to clean our own backyard as well. You may think seniority is a good thing, but when it is primarily for the use of the rich and powerful, it becomes more of a detriment to the people. While the republicans are in the minority their seniority is generally worthless.

I agree with A. Good Republican. If you're unhappy with things in Washington, it is time to vote for a change! Otherwise, it's business as usual...the status quo. If you're unhappy, exercise your right and vote for a change.
