LET'S ROLL!!!
Good morning!!
..but why he is suppporting and calling for the immediate passage of this 'amnesty' illegal alien bill stymies me to the max!
Can someone... smarter and calmer than I.... please tell me what's going on here.
I thought we were fighting a war on terror....???
Why make it easier for 'who knows what' to cross our borders, or even for those who are already here illegally, stay here and perhaps plan mayhem?
And why aren't companies who are clearly breaking the law by hiring illegal aliens not confronted and penalized for doing so?
I am so confused!
BTW, Westminster is 15 minutes from Boulder, which is probably the most liberal city of the area.
Good morning. I wondered why the immigration agreement fell apart last night. It seems our side of the aisle got smart and actually read the proposed legislation and found these tidbits:
Like that surprise hidden on page 302 - which would replace the country's entire bench of experienced immigration judges with pro-immigration advocates.
With a few exceptions, today's immigration judges (who serve for life) are dedicated to enforcing the law, and they do a difficult job well. This bill forces all immigration judges to step down after serving seven years - and restricts replacements to attorneys with at least five years' experience practicing immigration law.
Virtually the only lawyers who'll meet that requirement are attorneys who represent aliens in the immigration courts - who tend to be some of the nation's most liberal lawyers, and who are certainly unlikely as a class to be fond of enforcing immigration laws.
Just before the committee approved the bill on the evening of March 27, Sen. Richard Durbin (D-Ill.) offered the "DREAM Act" as an amendment. It passed on a voice vote.
The DREAM Act is a nightmare. It repeals a 1996 law that prohibits state universities from offering in-state tuition rates to illegal aliens. The principle, of course, is that no illegal alien should be entitled to receive a taxpayer-subsidized benefit that out-of-state U.S. citizens can't get. But the committee's bill allows illegals to be treated better than those U.S. citizens on tuition.
I forgot to provide a link for that information about illegal immigration.
And I forgot to post this information as well:
In 1986, the terrorist Mahmud "The Red" Abouhalima fraudulently got amnesty as a seasonal agricultural worker (in fact, he was a New York cabbie). That status allowed him to travel to Afghanistan for terrorist training - which he later used as one of the 1993 World Trade Center bombers.

Chair, have you heard about the goals of CFR or know any thing about this:
"Community" means integrating the United States with the corruption, socialism, poverty and population of Mexico and Canada. "Common perimeter" means wide-open U.S. borders between the U.S., Mexico and Canada.
