I would only support the bill if Ted Kennedy personlly transported illegal aliens across the Rio Grande.

Give it to the swimmer. What a skilled legislator he is, although he uses it to destroy the country. Imagine what someone with this kind of drive on the Republican side can accomplish.

The compromise agreement marked an extraordinary marriage of liberal and conservative goals that has the potential to bridge stubborn divides.

Conservative goals????????????????? More like 'an extraordinary marriage of liberal-Democrat and liberal-Republican goals'.

“Many liberal groups, which revere Kennedy as his party’s decisive voice on immigration, reserved judgment on the deal, calling it a good starting point and holding out hope of improving it during next week’s Senate debate.”

***

The only way to “improve” this bill would be to scrap it.

I’m sorry, but the only solution is to return the illegals to wherever they came from and secure our borders so they and new ones don’t come in.

...widespread criticism but called it "our last-gasp stand."

Poppycock. There are plenty of other approaches to take.

Teddy Kennedy’s final legacy-—the death of the United States of America-

Can you point out to me where in the Constitution it says that Teddy Kennedy has absolute power over the United States Government and has the ability to force a Republican President and GOP Senators to adopt his amnesty plan?

I don’t see where Kennedy is forcing anyone. Seems to me that the President and most of the rest of the powers that be in Washington want this stupid plan.

What if the illegal aliens, crooks, terrorists and narco-gangsters don’t want to show their real ID and become citizens? What then? How can you force criminals to become citizens? Why?

And why would they want to be citizen's if then they have to pay taxes and no longer eligible for the free ride?

Any time you deal with Kennedy and make ANY deal you are getting screwed.
You’d have thought President Bush would have learned after he let Kennedy write his education bill. Spent too much money with NO results.
NO way to this abysmal bill.

Just curious; If 12 million people started robbing banks would that also lead to amnesty? Well what are we waiting for? Let`s start robbing! YEAH! So what if it`s against the law, EVERYONE is doing it!

I’ve just emailed and faxed my Congressidiots, but I’m from Oregon so I know it will just fall on deaf ears. I’m so livid...

NO AMNESTY!

Yes, I understand that. It is easy to blame Teddy but Dubya is eating it up and will happily sign this bill.

Notice that all the employers who hired illegal aliens in former times get off the hook. That’s the amnesty that counts and it’s worth millions of bucks to all the politicians who came up with this piece of legislation.
