Are you prepared to show your ID on demand of any federal law enforcement agent, without probable cause, from now until the day you die?

That is not at all what I said, you know very well that is not what I said and I consider it to be a childish and immature trick to throw out such phony dialog, in short, don't do it again.

Simple economics will prevent most of your gloomy prediction. Pi$$ed off voters will take care of the rest.

I know it isn't what you said. But if your idea is to work, it would be required.

Then you might as well not do it at all, then.

Either you're willing to be carded at all times, or you're letting the illegal aliens roam around almost completely unmolested.

Here are excerpts from a couple of articles (rather long ones) to help elevate your blood pressure. It looks like the U.S. taxpayers will continue to subsidize illegal aliens and the illegals will continue to send money out of the U.S.

"I'm Optimistic"
By U.S. Ambassador [to Mexico] Antonio O. Garza, Jr.
March 26, 2004

At January's Summit of the Americas, 34 democratic leaders from the Western Hemisphere spelled out a common vision for the region. By 2008, they agreed to cut in half the cost of sending money from the U.S. back home...

U.S. Cites Importance of "Well-being" of Mexicans in America
Roger F. Noriega, Assistant Secretary of State, Bureau of Western Hemisphere Affairs, Department of State
March 23, 2004

-- Noriega said 23 percent of Mexico's population receives money transfers -- known as remittances -- from Mexicans residing in the United States. In 2003, remittances from Mexicans in the United States totaled $13.3 billion...

-- Noriega said President Bush's proposal for a temporary worker program, which the president announced January 7, will offer legal temporary-worker status to undocumented persons who were employed in the United States at the time of the announcement.

-- Mexican illegal immigrants represent the single largest nationality group among the U.S. undocumented population, Noriega said.

-- The United States, he [Noriega] said, will benefit from the labor of hard-working Mexican immigrants, while Mexico will benefit as "productive citizens are able to return home with money to invest and spend in their nation's economy."
