VIRGINIA SENATE OVERWHELMINGLY PASSES BILL CLOSING LOOPHOLES ON ILLEGAL ALIEN BENEFITS
In a lopsided, veto-proof vote, the Virginia Senate passed SB521, a bill that requires most people claiming Virginia residence to prove that they are lawfully in the U.S. This comes on the heels of a major victory last year to deny a Virginia drivers license to illegal aliens. Activist groups across the state, who have been pushing measure like this since 9/11, expressed their gratitude for the expertise and advice offered by FAIR during this important fight. "Our Coalition is extremely grateful for the enormous contribution that Fair has made in getting SB 521 through the first phase of legislative process," noted Bob Shoemaker. SB 521 is a model, state-based initiative to prevent illegal alien misuse of government services and outlaws the acceptance of the controversial consular matricula cards while safeguarding the rights of legal immigrants and citizens.

well, it does, in some ways (though not in toto, obviously) clearly state my position, though I do not state... (excuse me while I bang my head against the wall)... that I'm for gay marriage!!!!!!!! Furthermore, if you read a follow up reply i posted to another person on the same thread, you would see that I;ve already stated that i'm wholly against gay marriage.

Practice your emerging debating skills on somebody elses dime.
I replied to you, you shifted position, but continued to attempt to play games with me.
You never answered any of my points.
You might be a liberal if...

Your wasting your time. The government isn't interested in what the people want.That statement says it all. It is totally depressing knowing that you are nothing but some peasant. You can bet that illegal immigration will not even get mentioned in the upcoming national election.So much for "We the people", it is now "We the peasants".
Let me congratulate all of you in Virginia for getting something done. As you all know, the Bushes have too much influence in Texas to get anything like this done for the people.

I see you found time to reread my posts and realized your error. Now you're accusing me of not addressing your points -- points I might have touched upon if your tiresome choir-preaching rant wasn't so largely irrelevant to my original statement.I can't debate with someone if we can't agree on what we disagree about. ( The fact is, we disagree on very little, but you didn't take the time to figure that out)
You are a sad and angry woman. Must be lonely. Angry people usually are. I feel sorry for you...truly

Good for Virginia! I think California needs to invoke the equal protection clause! Hey, it seems to be working for the people's republic of San Francisco right now.

Still acting like a liberal I see.
No, I did not bother reading posts you did not direct to me.
All posts you have directed to me have been insulting evasions of my "rant" to you.
But I have courteously answered every one of them.
But I am done with you tonight.
Reflect upon your personal intellectual inadequacies in private.

A dozen, a gross, and a score,

Divided by seven,
Plus five times eleven,
Equals nine squared plus zero, no more.
Glad ya survived your experience with the goobermint beancounters and git yer license back !
Stay Safe !

"States like NY, Maine, and Washington are rolling out the red carpets for illegals."
Yup. I was in Yakima, WA a few months ago and there is a big fight brewing between American Indians and illegals from Mexico. The illegal Mexican population in Washington is much, much larger than many people realize.

Not difficult enough, since quite a few of the 9/11 hijackers had VA DL's.

We also need some Virgians in Arizona - we are sinking like the Titanic here. California has sunk and we are on our way down fast.

I was in Yakima, WA a few months ago and there is a big fight brewing between American Indians and illegals from Mexico. That's the first I heard of it, what's going on? There has been a lot of tension building up lately between blacks and illegal aliens but the mainstream media rarely reports on it, you have to get that news from the internet or talk radio.
To: Missouri
Well hot damn...it's about time our delegates did something useful....though I'm slightly ashamed that I didn't even know this vote was coming up....

California beat Virgina to rid themselves of illegal aliens way back in 1992 with CA Prop 187 1994, not 1992.
Here's the new, limited version:
1014. (SA03RF0048).
"Public Benefits. Driver's License. Eligibility. Immigration Status and Identity Verification. Initiative Constitutional Amendment."

Ending loopholes is a good start........and the best place to start is at the state level. Its always easier to vote someone out.
