I have a question for the WH...how are these "POOR" under paid illegal aliens going to pay the fines? They are hard pressed to put food on the table from all the reports I read or is this just another law that will go unenforced?
How much are my local taxes going up to support them?

More than one legal immigrant of Hispanic origins has complained of the damage illegals have done to the legal immigrants’ reputations and their assimilation into this country.
There are jobs illegals will do only and soley because the employers get cheap, slave labor for jobs that Americans’ have always done with pride for fair market compensation.
The biggest employer violators are those who do not keep records, pay cash, and are invisible to the ICE agents looking for the Big Headline Busts.

I've got one for the folks in the big white building....
Enforce the D*** laws on the books, and build the wall. Everything else is treason!

Dear Mr. Thompson of the White House Office of Strategic Initiatives:
I volunteered, voted, and protested for Governor Bush in 2000.
Why are foreign nationals who legally applied for a US Visa abroad, who wait their turn after it is approved (and who wait for years in many instances) discriminated against by CIR? Those who broke the law, did not wait, jumped the line, and acted criminally are BETTER OFF under CIR than those who followed the rules.
This is "reform"?
Under CIR American Citizenship is purchased for $5000 by those who broke the rules and stand in better stead than those who followed them.
And the White House's and some Republicans' statements/insinuations that we who oppose "CIR" are racists, nativists, or are in the minority on this issue are very much wrong and very much resented. I am the son of legal immigrants and I date and will marry a Latina.
I am frankly stunned that, for the money of big business, or the sake of "compassion," your Administration pushes this so-called reform.
On the off chance you actually read this, please respond up your chain of command and let them know: WE DON'T BELIEVE THE SPIN about better border security used to resurrect CIR.
Build the fence, grant visas to those with a proper (NOT 24 HOUR) background check, keep out the FELONS, deport the illegal alien FELONS, etc. Enforce the existing law and toughen employer sanctions. Enforce the first law (1986) before you ask us to believe you are serious about any new one.
Please listen to Laura Ingraham's demolition of Tony Snow's contentions earlier today. She is not a nativist, a racist, or a loon (either).
Blogging here won't help the White House's credibility on "CIR." What you read here should alert the Administration that we are hoppin' mad.

Amen!
What kind of LEADER let’s someone dress down one of his direct reports, and lets it just go on by.
Don’t have Tony speak to it. Have the **PRESIDENT** respond to the MAJORITY LEADER.

Mr. President,
You have failed to uphold your oath to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States” by not securing our borders! You have No credibility on this issue!

Dear White House cretins. I'm going to try to say this simply enough for you to understand:
NO AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL INVADERS. ENFORCE THE LAWS WE HAVE NOW. DON'T MAKE NEW ONES THAT YOU HAVE NO INTENTION OF ENFORCING LATER.
Capiche?

Oh yeah. What happened to that?
A lot of people in DC read FR but few will admit it.

Woulda guessed. The guiding light behind this stupid amnesty program, the “architect” who took a sure landslide win against a moron opponent and almost turned it into a defeat, the guy who says we are all racists “who don’t like brown people.”

IOW, they are addressing action and enforcement.That's BS. If they were serious about enforcement then why are illegals at almost every place of business that I see?
If a business was open about manufacturing cocaine the Feds would be all over them in the matter of hours. We wouldn't be talking about fines - we'd be talking about how the offenders went to jail and then everyone else stopped because they didn't want to risk going to jail themselves.
Somehow enforcing the immigration laws is impossible although it businesses violate it right out in the open.
To: kristinn
They dispatched Snow to Laura today, they send out one of their minions here. Same response to both.
We don’t believe a word any of you say. Your credibility is in shreds. You’d have better luck getting a member of KOS to trust you, then you will a Unamerican bigoted yahoo conservative. yes, we took the insults thrown by the administration and his lackeys to heart.
And to think, FreeRepublic members actually helped save Bush in 2000 and helped take down Rather in 2004. This is the thanks given in return?

Give him a chance. He’s probably in a state of shock at the responses he getting. I don’t get the sense there have been a lot of reality checks on this topic in the White House lately.

Thanks to the White House for officially acknowledging FR.
Close the borders. Enforce existing laws. Then lets see what else needs to be done then.
