Every single time Republicans have tried to do ANYTHING constructive about this matter, they've been lawsuited and shot down by Democrats. This bleeding heart article deserves to be in the wastebasket. This author doesn't wish to deal with the issue, honestly, either. His article screams "Sombody Like Me, PLEASE". ick.
NEWS FLASH: To be fair there are an equal number of "Republicans" who want to see our southern borders eradicated to benefit their rich business campaign contributors. This illegal alien issue is an equal opportunity crime being waged by both parties against all U.S. law-abiding citizens they no longer wish to represent.
It looks like a pretty good article to me --- honestly analyzing some of the issues. I don't think anyone has tried to do anything "constructive" about illegal immigration recently --- that would involve standing up to the Mexican government and telling them to get their act together right now.
Yeah? Which republicans? Mr. Bush?
Nothing is being done. A guest worker program is nothing more than another amnesty. We need to deport the illegals here, clean house then start from scratch.
Instead, we let them stay buy homes, and set up a life here. All the while they send half their earnings to their home country. Some of these guys have one family American here, and one family in their home country (two wives).
