Did Ramsey get his teflon from the UN?

Oorang,
I forget his name now, but that's one of the guys let out of Guantanamo who returned to cause havoc in Afghanistan.
I believe he has part of one leg amputated.
The problem is a guest worker program won't work with out a total overhaul of the entire immigration system, which the President nor Congress will do.
Under the current proposal the President has put to Congress, all the illegals in the US get worker visas.
OK, fine. Now; each and every one of those workers has to be employed under our current laws. That means employers will have to pay minimum wage and all the taxes, ect that goes along with hiring someone legally.
Since there will be no strict enforcement of employer sanctions and the border is not sealed, employers will continue to hire the hundred of thousand illegal aliens that continue to stream across the border.
So, not only have you not fixed the problem, youve made it worst.
The ONLY way to fix the immigration system is to SEAL the borders, enforce employer sanctions and then create a viable worker program. We also need Mexico to grow its middle class fast and police its border.
Speaking of Mexico, do you know what the Mexicans do when they find illegal Guatemalans sneaking across their southern border? They shot them. Yes, thats a fact.
Found him. This was the guy in the pic:

Attempted terror attack via the sea thwarted
The Israeli Navy yesterday (November 9) thwarted an attempt to infiltrate into Israel via the sea, as an IDF observation force identified a suspicious figure swimming towards the Israeli communities in the northern Gaza Strip west of the community of Dugit, in an area prohibited for Palestinians.
An IDF Dabur boat patrolling the area was called to the scene. The soldiers called for the suspect to stop. When he didn't, they fired warning shots, but he continued swimming towards the Israeli shore. The soldiers suspected that he was a terrorist and opened fire, killing him.
The body of the terrorist, wearing a diving suit and diving fins, was pulled out of the water. An AK-47 assault rifle, an explosive device, four hand grenades, five magazines, and a knife and were discovered today by IDF forces in searches conducted in the area of the incident.

The problem is that most of the critics of the measure refuse to admit the need for a guest worker program as part of the package. Quite frankly I think there are tinges of protectionism and ethnocentrism underlying almost all of the criticism, which seldom addresses real security issues.
By all means, we should lobby our senators and congressmen to attach beefed up enforcement and border security to the guest worker measure. But that's very different form demanding it be killed.
On a goat farm? hmmm
After seeing the goat picture and the goat video, I also go hmmmmm
