Waiting in line is not stupid. IT IS a privilege. Be thankfull you are ABLE to be legal in this country. You are lucky you have that opportunity (either by your education, work, marriage, etc). Those who are not as lucky as YOU, are the ones who will benefit from this bill. They work just as hard as YOU do, they have the same needs as YOU do, and they have the same aspirations as YOU do. Their work is needed just as much as yours is. It's just that they are unable to follow procedures set for by the USCIS.
It is not easy to be illegal. If you think so...be my guest...come to Calif and work in the fields breaking your back each day for $6/hr, no benefits, no hope of nothing better.
Nothing prevents you from doing it. Nothing prevents any amarican from working the jobs these illegals do. So untill those White gringos show up on the fields ready to work hard, lets just shut up and ACCEPT that we NEED these immigrants.
Hi:
Republicans aren't going to pass this bill... As long as the Democrats rule congress, it is all about the hispanic vote baby. Why pass this legislation now, while you can wait to pass it in the fall of 2008, and win the hispanic vote for your party?
Republicans don't have the balls to do anything, all their nuts in the Iraq basket, which is being whipped daily by the violence in Iraq. So, if I were counting on amnesty, would forget about it for now...
Couple of issues: The AG is a douchebag, embarrased himself before Congress and the American people. Worst of all, he is supposed to spearhead this initiative for the Bush Admin, do you think he has the balls to face the Senate Judiciary Committe and seek their help in drafting a legislation for amnesty? of course not, the US attorney scandal is like a wildfire in Georgia, still raging on....
The Iraq war supplemental has further strained the relations between Democrats and President Bush. As such, who wants to befriend someone so unpopular in the polls? Not the democrats, but a red-state nut cases...
Our Govt. should stop wasting money on the Iraq screw up and put our troops on the borders of our country where the USA is being invaded by criminlas every day. the best way to ensure the safety. security and freedom for USA is by securing our borders, refroming our education & Health care systems. and applying /enforcing sanctions agaisnt countries who allow their people to violate our federal immigration laws by not securing ther side of the border and by not providing a better way of life for thier own people.
The only way to stop illegals is to fix the Mexican economy so that people don't have to come here to support their families.
I am not in favor or harsh deportation of people whose kids where born and raised here, even though they are illegals themselves.
I understand and agree that breaking the law is unjust, but at times there are laws which need to be modified to accomodate complex humanitarian situations.
I think that giving citizenship automatically to children of Illegal Immigrants, the minute they're born, is ridiculous...it doesnt make any sence and its causin all that debate bout separating families...
Have to agree with machelon here. The 14th Amendment spells it out pretty clearly.read the constitution....
read the constitution....don't YOU be ridiculus.
what is that supposed to mean. I never said they're gettin the citizenship illegaly or maliciously, all i'm sayin is that it need to be revisited...
