No, it's not up to us to find legal ways for them to remain here if they are now law-breakers. They should go the route that every nation, including Mexico, requires for any immigrants--they have to go through the legal system of the nation to which they want to immigrate. If they do not go through this system of laws--they are here illegally and nothing will change that.

By the way, what is the "exit strategy" here? (RATS like exit strategies although they never seem to know what that means). How many illegals should get amnesty and then what happens (like it did last time), when millions more arrive and stay? Giving them amnesty simply means that millions more will then show up looking for freebies and ever more amnesties.

Exit stratefy....don't spend all of the tax dollars chasing, identifying, arresting, incarcerating, and deporting the very people who may want to contribute to the solution of the problem. Your position that ALL illegal immigrants are here to look just for freebies is not defensable. It is only your assumption. Give us some numbers.....I'm sure you know exactly how may illegal immigrants out of the 8 million show up each and every day for welfare checks, food stamps, hospital treatment, and etc. People immigrate here because in their heart they want to be free and have a better chance and opportunity to live their lives. Sure there are some free loaders....we got them kind who are born here and never had to cross a river, desert, or ocean. I'd trade everyone of them for 10 illegals who wanted to participate, pay taxes (SS) and prove 10 years down the line that they were American citizens by how they contributed over the last decade, not just because their parents born and raised them and they got some kind of birthright or inheritance coming. Please....

Some insightful advice in life: Any time you can use the problem to solve the solution and it cost you nothing, I suggest you do it. "Don't look a gift horse in the mouth"

Thanks for the reply!
