If any real immigration reform is done it will happen city by city, state by state and all at the local level by locals fed up with the ineptitude of the Feds.
Ha! Good one!
How about backing Our Brave Border Guards and freeing the ones like Ramos and Corpeon, serving 12 years on the word of a Drug Dealer who was treatening them and Our U.S Attorney hid the fact from the Jury tha this witness had just been busted a second time with 1 million dollars of Weed, This is a travesty of Justice!!!!!
When? How soon? Would a Democratic President have done any better under the same circumstances?
“We will be back?????” Mrs. Feinstein??? WE???? And when you come back, We the Loud People will be waiting for you.
Demand a border fence! Build it NOW!! Beef up the border patrol and close our borders!

Glenn Reynolds over at instapundit.com had this to say to the President and congress.
My advice for next time:
(1) Make the process open, transparent, and timely, with hearings, drafts on the Internet, and no last-minute bills that no one has read;
(2) Earn people’s trust, don’t demand it, and treat enforcement like it matters;
(3) Respect people who follow the law, and make legal immigration easier, cheaper, and simpler, rather than the Kafkaesque nightmare it is now;
(4) Don’t feel you have to be “comprehensive” — address the problems you can deal with first. The trust needed to deal with other problems will come later, after you’ve shown some success and some good faith.

Compromise Bill?
Compromising the American people is more of what it is like.
We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive. - C. S. Lewis
C.S. Lewis said it MUCH better...
Any bets that ICE arrests will slacken to a trickle shortly..

Here is a link to a good summation of the victory over amnesty over on National Review Online. I can’t post the article per the instructions of the syndicate that carries the author’s(Rich Lowry) collumn.

I don’t think the elitists wok up at all. They are just going to shove it down our throats in smaller doses.

As it now exists, the Republican party is too liberal for me.
No, it won't affect Mrs. Feinstein.
Bring it on! The sleeping giant is now awake, and with FR and other conservative blogs, and talkradio, standing watch, we have just begun to fight! Hmmm, where have I heard that before?
“The president has said the last time a sweeping immigration bill was enacted, in 1986, the law failed because it did not secure U.S. borders, did not create a reliable system for employers to verify the legal status of their workers and encouraged more people to come to America illegally.”
Well let’s just fix these failures and go on from there!!! That would be a good start to get Americans to support immigration reform.
