A few months ago I was posting that the GOP could craft an alternative bill that shows them as compassionate by giving a break to some of the illegals raised here as children to adults that :

1) Does not allow any government benefits
2) No citizenship
3) They are required to meet ALL obama-care mandates WITH THEIR OWN MONEY
4) They MUST PAY Federal INCOME taxes each year, no EITC
5) No crimes
6) They support all their dependents themselves
7) Graduated High school

And Dems WOULDNT touch it.

Alternatively above at link is a Dem/lib bill approved by Rubio, Mccain, Grahamnesty

” not only does Rush call Rubio a true conservative but I recently heard Levin call Rubio ‘My good friend’”

Never thought I would ever write Rush or Levin off, but I have done so.

Strange days indeed

Most peculiar, momma !

Anyone who actually believes that line that the amnestized illegals won't be able to get welfare have been doing too many drugs. They obviously don't know how the minds of the Federal boys in the black robes work. Can you say, "unconstitutional"? The Founding Fathers intentionally put into the Constitution that "mean-spirited" American taxpayers could not deny foreign invaders their "rights" to government freebies and handouts.

I have discovered that too. Not one of them I talk to gives a rip about being American. Go to a western union on Friday afternoon and see how much $$ is going south.

A more accurate headline from the Times would have read:

Virtually no back taxes will be paid under amnesty for illegals bill. It's in the fine print.

“2) No citizenship”

If they are paying taxes as legal residents then they will become citizens.

“3) They are required to meet ALL obama-care mandates WITH THEIR OWN MONEY”

We don’t believe citizens should be paying for obamacare.

2+3 are garbage. The rest I agree with you.

If they are legalized then they aren’t ‘foreign invaders’.

Either deport them or legalize and let them stay as citizens.

Well stated. It is possible and it can be done if the political will exists. Sheriff Joe shows us how it’s done.

Not if the bills says they cant. Many immigrants never become US citizens.

They should HAVE meet the full Obama-care requirements without government aid JUST AS WE HAVE to, otherwise we are forced to pay for theirs too as we do now.(and their employers shouldnt get the subsidy either, that will give those who came here obeyed the laws a fair shot)

TThat is the REAL GARBAGE, ME BEING FORCED TO PAY THEIR MEDICAL BILLS

“Not if the bills says they cant. Many immigrants never become US citizens.”

The constitution doesn’t provide for legal residency and paying taxes without the option of citizenship. No taxation without representation - remember this? If they are paying taxes and they are legal residents of the United States - then they will have the option of becoming citizens.

In short - if you do not want them to become citizens at some point in time - they must be deported.

“They should HAVE meet the full Obama-care requirements”

Balderdash. They shouldn’t be the recipients of Obamacare, just like citizens shouldn’t be the recipients of Obamacare. Abolish Obamacare!

We all realize that the system is broken. 

The system is broken when non-citizens have more rights and protections than law-abiding citizens.

Who the hell needs this amnesty? These illegals will pay ZERO BACK TAXES! Lets get real here/ The Democrat strategy is to get 20 million of these critters legalized then never follow through on enforcement or taxes or anything that might impact illegal aliens. Just wait until they start bring in their families wives children illegally. They will be all set with their work legalization and will be welfare eligible too. Then they will smuggle in family members

Of course the courts will permit no equal-protection arguments in this particular matter.

Taxes? What taxes? Most of ‘em would probably qualify for Earned Income Tax Credits - which they CAN receive according to the obscene amnesty bill they are pushing in Congress.

Yep, and if this bill passes I don’t believe they’ll have to smuggle their relatives in, they can get them in legally.
