I'll also say this: I think a good portion of the anti-immigration fervor is racist in origin. I never throw around the race card, but the hysteria I tend to see on these threads I can only interpret as resulting from an irrational fear of seeing little brown people overrunning the country. Let's be honest...There are good reasons for not supporting Bush's immigration proposal. There are also some bad reasons as well.

You just did.

but the hysteria I tend to see on these threads I can only interpret as resulting from an irrational fear of seeing little brown people overrunning the country.

Speaking for myself, my own three children (being half Mexican-American) as well as my nieces and nephews are "little brown people." May I suggest you try to stick to the facts of the argument at hand the next time to wish to persuade? You might win a few people over to your side that way.

Not me, though.
