The Illegal Alien Gold Card (guest worker program for illegal immigrants)

President Bush, defying objections from conservatives, has called for an overhaul of the nation's immigration laws and the creation of a temporary guest worker program to ensure a steady source of labor for U.S. businesses. Under Bush's plan, qualified workers, including residents now living here illegally, could stay in jobs for up to six years, then would be required to return home.

Under this proposal by the President, an illegal alien is rewarded with a change in status to "guest worker" for six years then "would be required to return home".

Required to return home by whom? This IS amnesty that President Bush said he would not support. Are these rewarded illegal aliens going to be required to pay taxes, FICA etc. ? I didn't think so.

I thought Justin Wilson died.

I even read today about some "worker investment account" or some garbage for these people.

I swear, this man has really lost his mind.

[oldbill]

"would be required to return home".

They are already required to return home. By what force would they be required to return home after six more years and six babies?

And just try to get into Mexico or try to get a job there.
Will Fox be issuing gold cards too?

This is a scamensty and no less.

We need these hispanic MExican workers. If this is a security issue how else would we do it. I mean let suppose we build the "fence". Now to get that passed we compromise and allow alot of these illegals to now become legal workers. Once wrong with a card? Isnt id a good thing?

Wink, wink. Shrug, shrug. Are you and employer of mexican illegals?

"safe and sane"

The only other place I've seen the phrase "safe and sane" employed was for fireworks -- the boring kind that just shot out sparks but did not explode.

I don't think he's lost his mind. He fully knows what he is proposing. His vision of globalism is defined quite well in the Free Trade Area of the Americas.

If this repulsive proposal makes it into the final House/Senate conference report, then you and I will see an invasion of illegals like no other at the expense of the American taxpayer.

So far, I have asked this "person" if they hire illegals, if English is their first language, are they a schoolteacher and what's up with the Catholic "outreach" they claim to be part of. So far, no answers ....

[chris1]

The Catholic church needs the collection basket full.

[veracious]

Folks, we are now at entering the Bastogne of our countries history. All I can say in response to the supposed law abiding Republican power brokers is

Nuts !!!

Just follow the money from the large corporal entities (mostly the banks) that believe the country is already insolvent and can only be sustained by hiring foreigners (cheap labor). Just follow the money from the governments agencies that need to have truly dependent followers to sustain there bureaucratic game. Real independent Americans would rather most of these agencies go bye-bye.

From what I've heard, the latinos are notoriously stingy come time for offerings.

We need these hispanic MExican workers. We need these hispanic MExican workers.

No, we don't. Have you seen the Pew Hispanic Center article posted today? ( http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1591794/posts ) In each of three of the four labor categories where illegal immigrant employment is highest (house/office cleaning, food service, and construction) they account for less than 18% of all workers in that category. In the biggest - agriculture - they account for only one in four workers.
