You'll have to pardon me, as I have been here seven years longer than you have.

I know who is against what and why they're against it.

Doesn't matter how you dress it up, that's what it's about.

And there will be NO meaningful immigration legislation -- why, you ask?

Because the public doesn't want it.

See how that works?

I won't pardon you, Howlin, I've seen you in action, and I know what you're about.

And since when being on a forum somewhere for seven years make someone more knowledgable? You don't KNOW me, and don't pretend you do. You don't know anything about me or my background. That doesn't make you any better than me - OR ANYONE ELSE. Ego much?

If there isn't meaningful immigration work done, we're going to have a nightmare on our hands the likes this country hasn't seen since the 30s. And we know it. And those who do know it are pushing for it. May not happen today... it *will* happen in the next 2-3 years.

Got any sources to back that up? Or do you really mean that big business and the corrupt Mexican elite don't want it?

The latest poll by Quinnipiac University found that 88 percent of those asked think illegal immigration is a serious problem. Put another way, 94 percent of Republicans and 86 percent of Democrats see illegal immigration as a serious issue .
