In all his years of governance, first as Governor of California, then later a President of the United States, Ronald Reagan was governing from a minority position. Many of the things enacted into law under his watch were not his initiative, but the demands of what he saw as the majority, both as individual citizens speaking their minds, and through those representatives whom were sent to sit in the legislative chambers. Thus, we have the seeming contradictory picture of Reagan reluctantly signing a bill in Claifornia legalizing abortion, which apparently was the will of a sufficiently large majority of voters to demand that authority in law.

As far as the amnesty bill of 1986, that also was signed, but with no enthusiasm. In the ensuing years, seeing how poorly THAT experiment worked, one questions the wisdom of passing more legislation which is essentially a reprise of the original proposal.

Promises made on behalf of the original bill, and not kept, go far to make the rest of us extremely wary about buying ANOTHER pig in a poke. Especially when almost exactly the same promises are made with this most recent proposal.

Fix the accursed border. Free the agents who were doing their duty according to the standards they sincerely believed to be in operation. And fire this Johnny Sutton, who single-handedly probably did more to cripple effective border enforcement than all the assaults made on the Border Patrol by all the armed criminals making incursions onto US soil from Mexico.

There are a couple of things people can do in the law posted above. It should be widely known that they can complain. "A person or entity having knowledge of a violation or potential violation of employer sanctions provisions may submit a signed written complaint to the INS office with jurisdiction over the business or residence of the potential violator, whether an employer, employee, or agent. The complaint must include the names and addresses of both the complainant and the violator, and detailed factual allegations, including date, time, and place of the potential violation, and the specific conduct alleged to be a violation of employer sanctions. By regulation, the INS will only investigate third-party complaints that have a reasonable probability of validity. Designated INS officers and employees, and all other officers whose duty it is to enforce criminal laws, may make an arrest for violation of smuggling or harboring illegal aliens." They can also sue.

Now, if you are so dumb, fat, and happy that you expect government lackeys to do your bidding, dream on. They are unionized.

More importantly, you should pay attention to what is really going on. We have run off a lot of illegals and discouraged others from coming. Voila we have a housing slump and a slowing economy. Did you see the piece on women from minimum security prison working the onion fields in CO last night on FOX. They said many had never worked a day in their lives, before. O

We did our legwork...and research...

Ronald Reagan is still the greatest Conservative President of the United States.

George Bush blindsided us....(we, who were his faithful, loving, hardworking, loyal base)

..and we will have to be ever vigilant until he leaves office.
