No where did I suggest the government set wages -- or even enforce its minimum wage laws for ILLEGAL or "guest" workers.

I said that the Bush plan must exclude the "guest workers" or whatever from any tax-supported benefits -- I will add -- except for emergency health care.

The children can attend school but everything will be in English. Anything extra has to be paid for by the "guest worker" parents.

If businesses can still attract a glut of workers then fine. Right now government is helping set wages by subsidizing the ILLEGAL workers' necessary expenses. No more! That's all I meant.

Gosh, where was everybody back in 2004? For that matter, back when George H.W. spoke of "The One World Order" and called us "the, uh, er, uh, regular people?

Did you think Dubya was not his father's son, another Establishment Man? Daddy is a big shot on the board of the equity gobbler, the Carlyle Group.

Where were you when Reagan and his "kitchen cabinet" planned and allowed farming conglomerates to swallow up the little guy's land? Didn't you know the majority of our food would eventually come from far, far away - cost more because of fuel prices to ship it in?

Do we really need under-ripe cantalopes and watermelons in December?

We are dependent on our past enemies for not only our food, but our clothing. And the trade deficit and money owed to the IMF will kill us!

Good-night. I hope everyone wakes up tomorrow.

...except for emergency health care.

The illegals know how to use and take advantage of the system and they are doing this on a daily basis. They cross the border for chronic diseases such as cirrhosis of the liver, chronic end stage renal disease. These people are usually not on deaths door but we still have to treat them. I spoke with a hospital social worker who said they can't turn them away just in case they died. This is the real reason that illegal aliens were added to the Medicare bill to the tune of $1 billion. Look for an increase in this amount soon as this is not enough money
