Is it too early in the morning or what for you guys?

Besides that, I went and looked at the specifics of some of the votes - Thompson lost points b/c he voted to allow more skilled workers (read engineers, doctors) LEGALLY into the country.

Yep, foreign docs and engineers are a huge problem for us...

Yep, just what I want, more third world country doctors working on me in the ER.

Gee, with Fred at the helm, the American worker has nothing to fear.

Or designing the next target!
We have plenty of qualified people in this country. Ask any corporation how much they are saving by outsourcing good jobs. FT just gave in to the Lobbyist firms, but that's OK it helps his immigration voting record

Sorry to confuse you with the facts. Check again! There are links to the voting. Right, If it's anything negative about Fred Thompson it HAS to be a Ron Paul conspiracy. I'm sure we'll be hearing more of that during the primaries. Actually, only Tancredo and Hunter pass with flying colors.

If you have a better website dealing with illegal immigration than numbersusa and FAIR, please post it. I'm always open to learning more on illegal immigration.

...and you call RP a conspiracy nut.

Are you referring to this comment that snagged a -15 against his immigration stance?

2000: Voted for S.2045, a foreign worker bill with no worker protections. Sen. Thompson voted for the Abraham foreign worker bill to nearly triple the number of foreign high-tech workers. Despite a GAO report finding no evidence of a worker shortage and suggesting fraud in the H-1B program, Rep. Thompson voted for this bill that included no worker protections or anti-fraud measures.

Yea, that in favor of "no worker protections or anti-fraud measures" really boosts my confidence

No wonder so many people like him

Especially those of the Jalapeño persuasion.
