The question is, will Banana Republicans still want to give amnesty to millions of illegal aliens, and ignore the major issue of illegal entry on our southern border?

First, I want to weigh in and say it should have been headlined: GOV'T FINDS ASS, USES BOTH HANDS

But the issue of illegal Mexicans is not black and white. If we deported them all today, we would shut down a lot of businesses. While it is unpalatable to offer lawbreakers amnesty, we may have to to avoid economic disruption.

On the other hand, we will get little out of that except a bunch of welfare clients among the families of these workers if we don't make the restrictions on guest workers very tight regarding how much of our public services we allow them to consume. And you can imagine the fuss the lkeftist pinkos would have with that. So it MIGHT be better to just ship them all home and take our economic lumps. Oh and we'd better then make the border VERY tight becuase Mexico will NOT be a fun place once we ship all these people home.

AOS: All Options Suck.

I tihnk some come for the better life and desire to succeed (like some relatives of mine - extended family) but some come to suck of the Govt (and register as a Dem in order to keep their supply coming). I guess it depends on the purpose. How would one know?

Past history suggests that the republicans for Amnesty also, by their silence, are for open borders.
