Colorado Congressman and Republican Presidential Candidate Tom Tancredo

By Laura Knoy on Wednesday, September 5, 2007.

Congressman Tancredo has made immigration his number one issue….some would say “only” issue….favoring tight control over our borders. In the Granite State, Tancredo’s attracted a loyal constituency…but so far, remains way down in most polls.

I agree with Congressman

I agree with Congressman Tancredo. I believe that the decline of the US middle class is due to both illegal immigrants and outsourcing of jobs.

What does he have to say about the actions and proposals of George W. Bush regarding immigration?

Tom Tancredo described

Tom Tancredo described nuclear power as "safe" on today's show.

Here's an idea:
Let's require every presidential candidate who calls nuclear power "safe" to store a container of highly radioactive nuclear waste in their community, perhaps in the candidate's own cellar or garage or next to the grill on the sundeck, for the duration of their primary race. After all if it's "safe" how can they object?

Let's face it, nuclear energy my not produce carbon dioxide, but we still do not have an answer to the problem of storing highly toxic waste for tens of thousands of years and no one wants it in their own backyard.
