The following briefly explains why illegals creep across the desert and perpetuate the lie about taking so-called "low-pay jobs Americans won't do."

The US taxpayer is subsidizing aliens' every need 24/7, morn til night: Using multiple phony SS #'s, forged documents, and multiple IDs the invaders collect multiple $4500-$5400 EICs from the IRS by declaring several names/jobs - just by going $1 over the income limit. They also line up for EINs, ITINs, Child Tax Credit, Additional Child Tax Credit, welfare and food stamps.

US Taxpayers are subsidizing invaders' daily food intake, housing, reduced mortgages, free medical care, free education, reduced in-state tuition and out of state tuition. We also foot the legal bills when they start suing if we don't provide these goodies pronto......etc., etc, ad infinitum, ad nauseaum.

The 423 pp monstrosity Senate bill (secretly written in El Presidente Vicente Fox's hacienda assisted by reconquista groups) provides that invaders will be paid a prevailing wage, Earned Income Tax credits, medical benefits; housing benefits; WIC; anchor baby citizenship; legal representation and amnesty from back taxes owed.

The Senate atrocity does not meet Constitutional muster b/c Vicente, and the reconquistas, could care less about the US Constitution. They want only to get their greedy hands on the US treasury and to take over the US government with the vote, or by violence, if necessary (their own words and signage at the recent protests).

All of this explains why aliens will do anything, pay anything, endure anything, to sneak over the border to get so-called "low-paying jobs" They have extortion dancing in their criminal heads......plans to rip-off US taxpayers every which way they can.

.....and billions of it goes back to Mexico where El Presidente Vicente gets a nice chunk of it---and so do the federales in Central and South American banana republics who help their compadres cross the border.

.....it should be done with "a sense of humanity and human rights."......Cisneros cited personal reasons behind his stance. His grandfather came to Texas from Mexico to escape persecution during the 1910-17 Mexican Revolution.

This guy epitomizes the abomination of liberal thinking----they justify just about any travesty as long as they're "feeling-good" about being "tolerant and compassionate."

The US government, and all its trappings, has been turned into a huge psychotherapy agency designed to mobolize government power---and tax assets---to subsidize and shore-up the self-esteem problems of various hyphenated groups.

Anyone with a chip on their shoulder can claim victimization, persecution, discrmination, and is encouraged to apply for sanctuary on our shores which entitles then to numerous tax-subsidized financial benefits, head-of-the-line citizenship, and various other preference-based gov't programs.....all at our expense.

It's a big con game. To some of these con artists a day without "victimization" is like a day without sunshine.

"I believe in immigration," he said. "I have used religious words in this regard. It is the salvation of the American future."

Thank you for your reply.

Your tag line says it all.

"The US Constitution is intended to protect the people from the government"

Unfortunately, our leaders, whom we have untrusted with power -- who swore to "preserve and protect the Constitution" -- have betrayed their Country.

Our leaders serve not "The People"(as embodied in the constitution) but rather the Royal's, the elite -- whom serve only themselves.

Now I understand that "The people" is a somewhat nebulous term, but even so, they (the leaders referred to above) should at the least try to do what's best for the Country as a whole; whilst keeping in mind the parameter's of the Constitution, they have -- at least putatively -- sworn to uphold.

One can only conclude(as I have said in other posts)that either:
(1) They are simply unfit for office(incompetent to be kind).
(2) They are corrupt.
(3) They are traitors.

More and more the evidence points to conclusions two or three.

We see here in the Senate immigration bill what happens when an arrogant gov't assumes too much power.

It has gone completely unnoticed that the Constitution is intended to protect the people from the government. The gov't acts like it is the reverse equation.

The citizenry does not exist to serve the government.

The Founders intended to protect the people's rights by limiting the powers of government. Any action which is intended to protect the people's interests from an errant government---as in the immigration dilemma---is in keeping with Constitutional imperatives, and is to be applauded.

That the Constitution is intended to protect the people from the government goes unnoticed..........and untaught. Unfortunately, liberal thought police have indoctrinated generations with Marxist/Socialist agit-prop so that many see the gov't as the solution to problems, and work to grant gov't more and more power over the lives of the citizenry.

Amen-----very well said. Notice that our "best friends" in these money-sucking hellholes are the ones that hijack the most annual aid from the US treasury.

Clearly, "big brother" government wants to do everything but the very things The constitution clearly empowers it to do, namely, protect us from invasion.

Article IV, Section 4, Paragraph 1: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against INVASION; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestics Violence.(emphases Mine)

Article I, Section 8, Paragraph 15: The Congress shall have the Power (to) provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress INSURRECTIONS and repel INVASIONS(emphases Mine)

You will notice that I have also emphasized the word INSURRECTION(S): The act or an instance of open revolt against civil authority or a constituted government.

Therefore, those that are abetting the invasion of our "constituted government", subverting the laws of the land, may also be looked upon as INSURRECTIONISTS.
