What the heck was in that turd that they wanted to pass so bad????

It is all about buying votes. Both Democrats and Republicans are desperate to get votes since the elections have been so close. They see illegal immigrants as an untapped source of voters and hope to swing Hispanic voters to their side.

The only thing is that those who have gone through the legal process are proud that they have and many feel that giving the illegals amnesty demeans their own efforts.

I'm ticked about it since my kids couldn't get their first jobs in this area because the illegals are all at the corners undercutting them. We sent our son for a European vacation so he would have something to do and my daughter had to leave near grandparents in a major city to get her first job before college.

The whole illegal alien thing sucks. We were lied about border security in 1986 and they think I will be fooled again.

Bingo

I’m an immigrant...Yes this is part of how we feel...

Also the continual labeling the 25,000,000 illegal aliens as “immigrants” clouds the issue, makes them appear legal, and gives them a staus that does not belong to them...

By using so callously the REAL immigrants legal entry experience, the authors and supporters of the AMNESTY Bill offended millions of people who love America and are appalled and ashamed of the illegal aliens riotous behavior and unwarranted demands...
