Somthing stinks in Washington... more now than ever. To see President Bush pushing this bill so hard down our throats then to see Senator Harry Reed pushing even harder by using this lame "clay pidgon" procedure scares the ba-gee-bees out of me. This past few weeks have been a devistatingly dissappointing display of leadership in our government. This entire debate was disigned to further exploit cheap labor for the interests of big business and to completly disregard the will of the American worker.

The line should read "Immigrants do jobs that Americans wont do... cheaper".

Thank God that our system is not totally broken because the people once again have spoken... I pray we as a counrty keep paying attention in the future... Trust me the administration is not done yet.

Immigration, a very difficult problem. From the beginning of recorded history populations have moved in mass, whether they were wanted or not.

In the present case with Mexico, politically it seems as if there is only one solution, and that is first make the border secure enough so that the influx is reduced to at trickle. Then, after a couple of years, address the question of what to do with existing undocumented aliens.

They are here. There is no way we are going to send back the millions that are here. They need to have a route to citizenship. That might be politically possible if we have first secured the border. But first things first.
