"CLARIFICATION: "Tucker" is a suburb of Atlanta. This is the author's location, not her last name."
Thanks; I know zilch about Atlanta and its suburbs, so I learned something new this morn!
From another poster:
"Letting illegals vote just gives another 70% of 10 million new votes to the democrats."
This proposal is NOT going to give any illegal the right to vote.

http://frontpagemag.com/blog/index.asp A step forward on immigration - Wednesday, January 07, 2004 3:11 PM
David Horowitz
The President's immigration reform announced today is rational, sound and a step in the right direction. It recognizes that there is an economic need for labor that America's labor force is not meeting; it recognizes that borders are important, and that control of borders is essential. It recognizes that citizenship is a great privilege and not a right; it recognizes that it is dangerous and utlimately suicidal to reward illegal entry with citizenship and thus dissolve our borders. This is not a solution to the immigration mess, but it is a step forward -- something we have not had since 1964.
Thanks Maria.
Add Horowitz to the rational voices of Medved and Hewitt, and even Mark Steyn, who had a few concerns--said on Hewitt's radio program yesterday this is definitely not "amnesty", it is not pandering (duh, I say), and it most definitely is not opening our borders, but securing them.
