Wrong! America has always been a land of immigrants. But not a land of lawbreaking invaders. It is absolutely outlandish for you to claim the invaders do no harm to our society.

He proposes to offer documentation to people who are now here illegally (in other words, criminals who have already demonstrated no respect for the law).

His proposal would greatly increase the number of "guest worker" by allowing family members to qualify for work.

He proposes to raise my local and state taxes in order to pay for the social benefits the "guest workers" would qualify for. This includes welfare, free medical care at the emergency room of their choice, schooling, etc.)

He proposes to maintain and accelerate the downward trend in wages of the poorest of American citizens by forcing them to compete in the job market with guest workers willing to live 10-12 to a house.

He proposes to force more local spending on ESL classes which are rapidly replacing accelerated and enhancement classes in local schools.

He proposes that I, the taxpayer, subsidize the low wages paid by Tyson, Conagra, and all the other corporate employers of these "guest workers" with my tax money.

Sorry. Nobody here believes you, or Bush, or Hagel and Daschel. We know the truth when we hear it, and about the only place we are hearing it these days is from Tom Tancredo.

Wrong, we have not been a country of immigrants since about 1778. The majority of the population has always been born here. We are a unique country with one culture, but are multi ethnic. IF you go back far enough, you will find that people have moved into every country of the world.
