We all need to be aware that congress will attempt to pass legislation that sounds good, but will have no impact on illegal immigration.
We currently have plenty of laws on the books that are not being enforced and need to be budgeted to staff and do the job. Arrest, incarcerate, identify, deport and keep them out.

I agree. As it is, Congress doesn't give the Border Patrol the funding it needs. I think this would be another feel good/do nothing piece of BS.

RE: "We all need to be aware that congress will attempt to pass legislation that sounds good, but will have no impact on illegal immigration."

That is the issue that is being obscured by all the hubbub over amnesty.

"Keep 'em riled up about amnesty, the we'll give and say no amnesty no way," says our kakistocracy in Washington. (Thanks to Lee Rodgers of KSFO for passing along the most descriptive word around for the RepublicRATS.)

I believe J.D. Hayworth is filling in for Laura Ingraham today, his wise words:

Tell you Congress people just two words, "ENFORCEMENT FIRST"
