“could change a way of life that is binational.”
That would be the point of a bill to fix our invasion problem.
NO AMNESTY! SECURE THE BORDER! The rest is just conversation.

Have any of you geniuses heard of gates? Build the wall or their won't be much left of "relations". The best neighbors I ever had were the ones I ones I toasted a cup of cappuccino with over the hedge each morning.

Southern border, bad policy exposed
John Kass
May 24, 2007
Without a fence across our southern border with Mexico, without a border that is controlled and secure, can Americans have faith in what Washington politicians are doing with the so-called immigration reform bill?
I don’t think so.
The lack of a controlled border, and the federal government’s unwillingness to secure that border over recent Democratic and Republican administrations, undermines American confidence that immigration reform is anything more than raw politics.
And now President Bush is pushing an important immigration bill without first having built the fence, which tells the rest of us outside Washington that we can expect future federal enforcement of immigration laws to be about as energetic as it has always been, just about as vigorous as their fence construction.
......But without real control of our borders, to know who is coming over and why — not to mention potential terrorists — then no immigration reform can be considered legitimate. And legitimacy is necessary to win popular support for some kind of compromise that has to get done for the 12 million illegal immigrants who live here and for those of us who are citizens...”

So....no fence, and no additional Border Patrol Agents; in other words, no enforcement.
Buuuuut, it’s not amnesty. (Is it `compassionate conservatism’?)
All together now: `kumbaya Over Lords, kumbaya......’
Tell me, is Hutchison the most stupid Senator in Washington? Do you have another candidate? Perhaps she and Murray could do America a favor, quit the Senate and open a quilt store somewhere. Second, who is the bigger weasel, Arlen Spector or Cornyn?
As long as Barbie Boxcar is in the Senate, Kay will simply have to wait her turn in the Stupid Derby.
