And it certainly isn't the only voice in America. A Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll last week shows that, by 50 percent to 33 percent, Americans prefer the broad solution that President Bush has outlined and that the Senate largely adopted.

The solution "now" is seal the border not what the senate did.

The house has saved it's ass by shutting down that horrid legislation regardless of all the bogus polls and whining from the liberal media.

DMN is hawking amnesty.
Some of those surveyed even will accept a plan they consider amnesty.
Yeh, some = 2 out of 10.
House of Reps is doing the right thing.
W's Bull Is Dead!

The Republicans running the House may not be as smart as they think they are.
They are plenty smart...and up for reelection and know that if they cave to the Senate they will not be back next year. They are listening to the people that matter, their voting base.

No bill is better than what the Senate passed, despite what the DMN would have you believe.

I've been looking for a stance from Dick DeVos on immigration and I can tell you I won't be voting for anyone who doesn't have a stance or or supports the Bush amnesty plan.

I think it is risky, too. But the risk is extremely low. Most of the people in this country are law-abiding citizens. They have figured out the connection between open borders and increasing numbers of illegal aliens. ...not to worry!

""A Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll ""
The Wall Street Journal is pro illegal immigration, so their poll was fixed as instructed : )

It could backfire. On the other hand, the Senate's pro-immigrant stance could backfire. I'd put my bets on the latter.

Certainly there is no one individual who believes we are deploying the National Guard along the border to because there is no threat. The reason the Guard is being deployed is because there is a threat across the border, but the politicians forgot, the threat is inside our border too. I'm extremely uncomfortable with the attitude of our elected when it comes to National Security. I hope I'm wrong, but I see 'big trouble' from not having enforced the law concerning illegals.

Those views are much more in line with the legislation the Senate has put on the negotiating table...

The 800 surveyed were RINOs, then.

Phony poll is aimed at House members not the public.
