One of the first political issues negotiators must tackle in crafting an immigration reform bill is among the most important: what to name it.
Its a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles.
Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that's positive or a brand that doesn't mean anything or even hurts you, said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group Americas Voice.

Something truely descriptive of the bill's intent would be a welcome change from the typical liberal bills with intentionally misleading names.
We have had more than enough of bills like the democrat's "Affordable Health Care Act" that actually increases health care costs to the point they are unaffordable.
In this case how about:
The "Up Yours, America" bill.

Isn't it strange how the left has to brand and re-brand everything when it starts to stink.
Honest people never have to do that.

I’m stuck on, “USA Death Certificate”. Well, perhaps “USA Death Warrant”.

I was going to suggest the “Alien and Sedition Act” but that’s already been used.
