Same here, I'm opposed to any guest worker program at this point, especially after seeing what H1-bs have done to the tech industry.
Most people who don't have a problem with one now will when their jobs get directly affected, and they can expect that to happen as the corporations are given free reign to send busses down to the border to get their cheap replacements.
Our hope in all this is Kyl\Cornyn won't pass either since the democrats aren't going to support anything that doesn't have amnesty.
Another thing I find curious is the Senate is pushing back debate, they know this is a hot potato and really don't want to deal with it. The closer we get to the election the less chance there is for any guest worker program passing this year.
Very true. It was supposed to start in February and Arlen Spinctor delayed it until March. I saw a blurb on a blogsite (FortheCause if I recall correctly) about a rumor that McCain and Frist were trying to come up with some lame excuse to push the hearings back until after the November election. I think they were going to use the NSA Eavesdropping hearings as an excuse. Real pillars of courage, those two! But it is probably good. I'd rather have a pissed off electorate and the status quo then another shamnesty.
