Do you want to be right, or do you want to win?

Well....I'd rather be half right and win half than be completely right and win nothing. Pukin', here's the key part of what you said:

Only after a migrant worker program passes, making most of these illegal aliens legal, is there any chance at all to have meaningful border enforcement.

My reading of that is that we can get meaningful border enforcement if we include some kind of amnesty. As distasteful as "amnesty" may sound to some, I'll accept amnesty if it includes securing the border. Because I think the only political alternative to amnesty + border enforcement is the status quo. And that's a whole lot worse.

Trying to squeeze the toothpaste back into the tube won't work. So I'll settle for making sure the lids is tightly on the remaining tubes.

If they are allowed to secure the border AFTER they make the current crop legal, they will never do it. Hold their feet to the fire. Build the fence NOW! If you build it, they won't come.

Thank you XJarhead, for your post.
