Makes no sense to me why this bill is seeing the light of day and why the President and Karl Rove his henchman are twisting arms.Made no sense to me either until I saw the number of business associations pushing for it.
Remember GWB saying how much he loves steak? The American Meat Institute which represents 70 percent of annual American meat production is behind it big time (Hormel, Tyson, and Cargill closed dozens of plants for the May 2006 "immigration rally" and excused 20,000 from work that day).
So is the Council of Chain Restaurants, which sounds innocuous but represents employers of 3,000,000 fast food workers (lots of illegal aliens).
American Home Builders, one of the largest lobbyists in DC with at least 45 on the payroll. Anecdotally, I haven't seen many non-Hispanics doing general construction labor in a very long time.
There is huge money behind this thing.
southernindymom, I posted a long list of 2006 Amnesty supporters on the previous page of this thread, toward the bottom of the page. You can't miss it.

I am so sick of these people pushing their slave labor agenda I can't see straight.
Better gear up for the big Tea Party that's coming, all.

“The Founders did not agree.”
But they ain’t here anymore. Failing to recognize them (the ruling class) for what they are does not mean they don’t exist.

At this point though, he said that Reid is probably content to let it come back because after the President's high profile lobbying, he can pin the blame for the bill on Republicans.
Exactly. Exactly. Exactly. The Dems are manuvering to make it look like this is the president's bill and it was passed by Republicans with a few key Democrats "helping out." Then the Dems will get everything they want. 12-20 million new voters and the ability to pin this travesty on the Stupid Party.
If this happens, I'm tearing up my GOP membership card. We'll be needing a whole new party.

I had the strangest dream the other night. A truly terrible immigration bill had been signed into law. One day in the Fall, one million American patriots showed up in Washington on the same day and the most amazing thing happened - all their cars broke down at the same time.

Uh....YOU have a mighty strange posting history...or lack thereof....
Back to the subject at hand.....

250,000 will not do it, if we don’t hit the street with more than the illegals did then why would they care.
To: justanotherfreeper
How can the idiots in the Senate not see that?
I'm convinved that they do see and and that they're not idiots. They're happy to use us for our votes. They just hate us.

I believe it is we who have turned away from God. We are suppose to be a Christian nation but can’t get rid of abortion! And how many Christian churches are in support of homosexuality? And look at hollyweird and the immoral crap they put out and make billions of dollars,and they are the biggest supporters of abortion and homosexuality!And yet this Christian nation keeps hollyweird in business.And the people in Washington do NOT take Christians serious but they sure take the Muslims serious! WE have to take our country back. I’ve made the phone calls and emails but it is going to take more than that,what can we do? Ready for Hitllery?
