Secure the borders first. Deportation follows.
You noticed that too huh?

says
"The program, approved by Hutchinson earlier this month and known as interior repatriation, is designed to funnel illegal immigrants away from the Arizona-Sonora desert, where punishing heat has killed hundreds, by flying the migrants to Mexico City or Guadalajara and then busing them to their towns.
"The agreement caps months of delicate negotiations with Mexico, where the concept of interior repatriation is highly controversial.
"Mexican officials insisted that the repatriation be voluntary and that detainees not be handcuffed.
"Mexican consular officials will interview the migrants to ensure their decision to fly is voluntary. "

Neither the President's speech nor the CSM pointed out that it all depends upon the Mexicans themselves. It appears to me.
But our leaders want the borders open to allow in dirt cheap illegal alien labor, which is why they will NOT build a fence.
Fernando Ortiz was a ‘landscape engineer’ on Long Island who had demanded to be able to vote, on the basis that he had been paying state and federal taxes for ten years. Actually, he had been stopped from casting a ballot by a poll watcher who had suspected his citizenship status, and (illegally, as it turned out) demanded proof of his identity and legal qualification to vote. Ortiz had won a multi-million dollar settlement against the Republican Party of New York in the subsequent “racial profiling and ethnic intimidation” civil suit, but he did not stop there.
Instead, with massive support from the ACLU and various Hispanic “immigrants rights” foundations, he had pressed his demand to be allowed to vote all the way to the Supreme Court…and he won. The Supreme Court, in its famous 5-4 decision, ruled that negligence in securing America’s borders against illegal immigration on the part of the federal government, could not be held against “undocumented workers who played by the rules and paid their taxes,” once they were established in America—legally or not. The federal government had not taken reasonable efforts to secure the border, and had not pursued "undocumented workers" in the USA. Instead, it openly permitted them most of the benefits of citizenship, and it collected their taxes. "No taxation without representation!" was the cry heard all the way to the Supreme Court. The State of New York had then sleep-walked through an aimless and desultory case for denying the vote—and citizenship—to “undocumented workers.”
Following Ortiz v. New York, a stunned America woke up to discover that there were not only an amazing twenty-two million illegal aliens hiding in plain sight across the land, but that eight million of them immediately qualified to vote. In a nation split 50-50 down party and ideological lines, these eight million new voters were recognized to be the certain majority-makers in future elections, and both parties set record lows for cravenness in pandering to their “needs.” Chief among their “needs” were liberal new family reunification laws, and these instant citizens—illegal aliens only a year before—began bringing the remainders of their families to the USA. Legally.
Overnight, wavering Democrat states became locks, and swing states with large Hispanic populations went solidly “blue.” The result was the recent election which had brought Gobernador Deleon to power in Nuevo Mexico, and had also brought radical Democrats to power in the White House and both houses of congress.
Thus had come the political tsunami which swept all before it, a tidal wave triggered by an undocumented lawn maintenance worker named Fernando Ortiz.
Yikes! Good insight Travis. I can see this happening.
More like premonition than prediction though..
If you know what I mean.. ;o)
That's one way it might play out. Civil War Two is another.
"No, this week he's giving speeches to provide amnesty to illegals, but using any other word for 'amnesty' that his speech-writers can find."
The new word is "normalization".
Trav, listen to this if you want a good roar.

As I recall that is exactly the reason McCain and Bingaman used to sell their Federal Responsibility for Immigrant Health Act. We didn't enforce the law, we let them in, we're responsible for their health and welfare.
I think McCain has learned to be less frank. To wit, he has a plan that would require ILLEGAL aliens pay a fine and pay all back taxes. Pay back taxes? I swear it seems to me that when the back taxes are computed the "earned income credit" will kick in and we'll owe them.
Well, how kind of you to feel that way. Maybe we can get a law passed to only let the pretty illegals in, eh?
Ugly is as ugly does.
You're a pig.
Exactly! We'll owe THEM!
