As Biloxi rises from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, it is doing much of it on the backs of undocumented foreign workers. Some are starting to suggest that their contributions are worth at least a temporary visa.
"If we are working and helping to raise this city, at least they should give us a work visa," said Manuel Armenta, a 44-year-old Mexican who came to Biloxi five months ago to do cleaning work at a hotel...
...So far, there's been little risk [of deportation]. The Department of Homeland Security has announced a 45-day period in which employers would not be fined for hiring undocumented workers. It said that was because many people had lost their proof of citizenship or legal residence in the storm...

"I thought you were talking about ancient astronauts."
They had their chance.
BTTT!
But just ASK the grief stricken beyond words, Mother, whose TWO young beautiful sons were mowed down and killed by a DRUNK ILLEGAL ALIEN in Little Rock this week. Ask HER how she feels about ILLEGAL Aliens?
I'm sick after seeing the photo of her precious 9 and 13 year old boys. If Juan wasn't here ILLEGALLY, the boys would still be alive.
Are you reading this, Gov. Huckabee?

Hopefully, the GOP leadership can grasp this concept. It will be very difficult for some but confidence is high.
Oh, I'm sorry you filthy illegal, was a paycheck for your sorry A$$ES not enough? How about Citizenship? A house and a new car? GET OUT OF MY COUNTRY!!!!!!
Those NO-ians are UNEMPLOYABLE!
Unfortunatly, we have too many folks (such as those in New Orleans) who are UNEMPLOYABLE!
"And if there is anything Mexicans are good at, it is construction."
Good for nothing except they are cheap, the quality and quantity suck.
So, you have no problem with the 20 million illegal alien lawbreakers already in our country, just so long as they are here to work, is that right?
"But, but what about all those NO-ians who are unemployed?!?"
They're on government assistance, and, so, don't need to work.
This is why I support deporting the illegals and THEN starting a regulated guest worker program.
Agreed.
If the "Locals" find the Wages "Beneath Them"--re-hire the "Illegals" on LEGAL "Work Visas."
REFUSE to Hire "Citizens" who now want to compete with the "Guest Workers."
DEPORT all "Guest Workers" when their "Work Visas" expire!

There are lots more heading that way for FEMA work.....Los Angeles is a ghost town these days. Bayourod can lower the pay to his illegals.
It's amazing how the leftist have convinced so many Americans that we are so weak, and helpless, we can't even rebuild after a disaster.
So when do the illegal aliens start rebuilding the World Trade Center?
And since they are such hard workers, and no doubt harder fighting soldiers, why not let them fight our wars? I don't know why America doesn't model itself after Mexico. I am sure we'd all be much better off.
We'll there is some great news. We can only hope they stay in that region when the water drains out. Lots of inexpensive homes there too. Quite attractive no doubt to the illegals.
He can, but right now this particular quisling appears to have landed on the suspended/banned list. Consistent with past slaps on the wrist, I'm confident he will slither back in here.
