No one that I know of has ever accused John McCain of being overly bright however his teaming up with the vitriolic, virulent anti-American Ted Kennedy is very telling of this AZ. politician. I wouldn't trust anything he signed his name to, especially after the CFR fiasco. President Bush has been stung by these two before, perhaps this time he will veto their bill if it ever reaches his desk. But rather than hold my breath, I will let my President know just how I feel, please do the same.

When any of you get a copy of the 'bill', please post it on FR.

The bill proposes two new visa classifications, the H5A & H5B.

Those already in the country will be converted to H5B visa holders. The H5A will cover future guest workers. The quota on H5A is 400,000 per year with a possible additional 80,000.

I can't imagine this bill would make it to the president--at least I hope not---

I love the part that said that they don't think employers should be penalized for hiring illegals--THAT would be about the ONLY thing, short of a 20 ft tall 4ft thick brick wall, that would stop illegals from coming over here from now on,...

Besides, they are asking these people to pay $500 dollars, what a joke, we spend SO much more for their social services that it is ridiculous...

This is a stupid, stupid bill--and doesn't deserve any time on the house or senate schedule.

Two RINO's who just signed their walking papers in the State of Arizona.

Graf will beat the crap out of Kolbe over this. And it will stick.

This is an Amnesty, folks. Nothing more. Get out of jail free.

Has he vetoed anything at all since becoming President? Maybe he's trying to set some sort of record.

Will do.

Sounds like McCain/Kennedy might work out almost as well as McCain/Feingold!

Down the road it looks like this bill will just be a slick amnesty type of citizenship for millions of Mexicon illegals. If that's what it is, it;s a slam against the rest of the world that plays by the rules.

US citizenship should be allowed to only a few special people from all over the world, not millions from one country just because they were slick enough to break our laws, how stooopid.

Nothing in the legislation prevents employers from continuing to hire illegal aliens. In fact, the sponsors of this legislation recently stated that they didn't think employers should be punished for hiring illegal workers.

With not threat to employment and free health care, what would entice illegals to shell out $1,000 for guest worker status?

This smacks of treason.

This is a classic "good guy/bad guy" scenario:

Bad guy--McCain and Kennedy propose a plan that goes against the will of the public.

Good guy--Hillary swoops in to stop the plan and further position herself as the hero of the average American Joe.

It's too obvious for words...

I can't believe no one saw the breakfast cereal analogy here (a nut, a raisin, a different sort of fruit and a flake). What to name it..."Traitor Treats"..."Sedition Start"..."Backstab Break"...
