"Also, you don't have the slightest whiff of a clue, of what would happen to our lives if every illegal immigrant were thrown out of the country today."

Well, had they all been thrown out last week one woman would still be alive and two children would still have their mother.

The #1 problem with Bush's proposal (aside from the fact that it is an amenesty in a guest worker guise) is that it makes no provision for border security, makes no changes in the visa system that invites overstayers, makes no change in the ridiculous "lottery" system brought to us by Sen. Kennedy. Other than that, it might be supportable.

The current system, or rather lack of system, encourages law breaking by all sorts of people, most of whom aren't even really criminals.

And it seems we are stuck with bilingualism, which is too bad, because I never wanted to live in an Hispanic nation, and now I do. Look at Latin America and ask yourself, if that what you want America to become?
