Immigration is my single issue.

I voted a straight R ticket this election.

But if 20 R's and the President back this travesty, I WILL sit home next time to teach the GOP a lesson. Whether you like it or not.

Bush told the Guatemalans the bill could be fast tracked for passage by August.

Think it will happen?

No, they didn't.
The "moderates" and "independents" simply felt that if Congress was going to behave and govern like Democrats, they might well have Democrat majorities.

" . . . . to earn citizenship."
Why should we assume that any significant number of those 12 million alien invaders desire U. S. citizenship? They're doing just fine without it; bank accounts, credit cards, SS accounts, home mortgage loans, in-state U.S. citizen college tuition rates, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

This will be the last nail in the coffin of McCain's presidential aspirations. Thank goodness.

This is smoke mirrors and b.s. and anyone not understanding that is just plain stupid.
Round the illegals up and deport them ALL. Put up a wall and put the military on the border to protect our country.

I remember when Mexicans lived in mexico, oh wait they still do, the border has been moved north and mexico now extends into what used to be the USA.

Mexicans now work at jobs actual American citizens used to work, wow remember the good ole days ??

And now the illegals have friends in high places like the aclu the dems and......never mind.

" . . . . to earn citizenship."

Citizenship? That's becoming a serious drawback these days, maybe they should rethink that a bit.

There is NO DETERENT! It will never end ,its a free for all
The libs want to increase thier voting base and will use thier wealth redistribution plan and free college education (now in california but coming to a state near you)to attract more and more illegals, the Rebulicans want cheap labor. When are we going to wake up? close the border, put the national guard there, we have a right to protect or country!

I can't wait until the South Lawn signing ceremony with Bush stammering away in bad Spanish and bad English about his usual "illegals-are-heroes blather", with fellow immigration leftists Ted Kennedy and Nancy Pelosi at his side.

Just like the oil-for-food program, any deal where illegals get to become US citizens should include a provision that Americans can buy Mexico ie an illegals-for-investment arrangement, so to speak.

If they can work in the US, there's no reason why we can't buy up all their prime coastal real estate. All 5,000 miles of it.

That's just amnesty for the first 20 million, RodgerD. Since the borders are to be left open, the NEXT 20 million should cross the Rio Grande in ten years or less.
