Interesting,.....

Border PING

[Brilliant]

The Dems will quickly put a stop to this.

The Bush administration unveiled a revised rule Friday threatening businesses with prosecution unless they fire employees identified in government records as possible illegal immigrants, offering a new explanation but virtually no change in content from the regulation that a San Francisco federal judge blocked in October.

Let's go after those capitalist pigs in business and then place the "illegals" on a government subsidized training program and offer them amnesty so they can find work again. After all the poor "illegals" are just pawns of business while trying to do what is best. /s

Opponents said the new plan, which like the old one would be based on discrepancies in Social Security records, would harm large numbers of legal workers, foster discrimination against the foreign-born and drive up business costs.

Gee, perhaps securing our borders in the first place would be a lower cost endeavor in the long run.

...new rule in August to toughen a little-enforced provision of a 1986 immigration law...

What, more lawful promotion to resolve the lack of enforcement of an existing law?

Government shown in it's best form again. /s

Hmmm let's see. 'SS Discrepancy & Foster Discrinination'

• His clothes are still wet from crossing the Rio Grande, or full of sand and cactus needles from the desert.
• Speaks Spanish fluently.
• Can't speak one word of English.
• Has a shiny new Social Security card with the name Joe Grabrowski.

Sorry. I'd take a wild a$$ guess he's an illegal from Mexico -- and sure as hell AIN'T Polish.

Yeah I know, I'm mean. I've learned to deal with it.

"This misguided attempt to fit the square peg of immigration enforcement into the round hole of Social Security benefits is a guarantee of increased discrimination and erroneous terminations," said Kathleen Campbell Walker, president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.

I wish this mental giant, Walker, would limit her boo-hoo-ing to cases of "erroneous terminations". I doubt if she can produce a single case; if she ever did, I would support additional safeguards to prevent that.

However, I believe that this bottom dweller is as concerned for the sprtit of the law about as much as I enthusiastically support the spread of islam in my country.
