LA County, one county, had a $300M cost to pay for emergency care of illegal aliens. That's only one county, and emergency room care only. So, ante up or lose your hospital. You wouldn't want anyone to think you're a racist because you want immigration to be orderly and demand on social services manageable...

So, what are you doing on a county political level to address that outrage? Under what authority do they provide those services? Is George W. Bush forcing your County Supervisors and local Democrat welfare mobsters to provide these services?

When are you folks going to understand that it is WELFARE abuse, designed and executed by Democrats, that is the driving force behind the influx, and burden to taxpayers, of illegally resident foreign nationals?

There's no other solution to accounting and processing the illegals already here than a blanket offering of temporary sanctuary so those under the radar will step up and identify themselves. What is the alternative to find 5,6,7 million illegals moving through communities of tens of millions of legal immigrants within a country of 280 million native borns? Roadside check points to make sure "papers are in order"? Break into homes and businesses like the 4th ID in Tikrit? That's acceptable? You aren't going to "happen" upon 6 million illegally resident "Hispanic" looking folks without grievous civil liberty abuse to us all. How are you going to find and deport all these illegals, without massive LEO sweeps and absent any political confrontation with the local welfare authorities who are enabling the interlopers?

I forgot. The illegal immigration problem, when honestly appraised and framed in authentic form, requires a local response employing hard work and political leverage to solve. Bah! It's easier to blame Bush and the GOP. Is easier to make them the villians. It's easier to be a tortured victim than an empowered citizen-steward.
