Comments on: Lou Barletta’s Hazleton http://www.pa2012.com/2009/12/lou-barlettas-hazleton/ Your destination for PA's Big 2012 Election Races Thu, 09 Feb 2012 00:20:56 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: June McWilliamhttp://www.pa2012.com/2009/12/lou-barlettas-hazleton/comment-page-1/#comment-8326 June McWilliam Wed, 20 Jan 2010 19:24:44 +0000 http://www.pa2010.com/?p=5101#comment-8326 Lou Barletta is actually protecting the citizens from the affects of illegal immigration. That is his reason for doing this. Politicians and special interests have found ways of skirting the law, and this is necessary to stop the ravages of illegal immigration. People of Pennsylvania - illegal immigration affects us to the tune of nearly $800,000,000. (yes, 800 MILLION DOLLARS) a year. I don't care about a politician's conscience (like the one who wrote this article), I care about what the people, who voted him into office, want! All we are doing is importing poverty into our nation. Why doesn't the writer, join a movement, where he can help the illegals take back their native country and get rid of the corruption? Why don't they apply that same fervor, and compassion, towards that goal. How dare you infer, that the citizens of the USA, take on this task and pay for them?!? By the way, I have news for the person who wrote the article - if you are a lawbreaker to begin with, you cannot be law abiding.

We need a healthy old school conservative and libertarian influence in this country to maintain the balance. Unfortunately, it seems that the Republican Party only cares about small government and fiscal responsibility when it is out of power. After the last 8 years, it's a wonder anyone takes them seriously on those points anymore.Where were the self-described "teabaggers" then?

Where were the self-described “teabaggers” then?

It's completely worthless - other than to show people who NOT to vote for in the 11th District GOP primary.Showing a simple driver's license or some other form of government ID to do anything isn't a big deal. I do it every day when I use my credit card or write a check. What's the issue here?You're obviously just looking for ways to distinguish yourself from a much more popular and better-suited GOP candidate in Lou Barletta.Try talking about an issue that actually matters. Or better yet, if you have to attack a candidate from your own party that HASN'T EVEN ENTERED THE RACE YET, you might as well drop out now.Thanks!
