My prediction: We will be sold down the river.

[tallhappy]

Of course it is "amnesty".

It ain't going to stop.

The panel, which is working on comprehensive immigration and border security legislation, will also consider a related proposal that would allow foreigners to enter the United States as legal guest workers and then have a chance to earn permanent status.

Uh oh...the chit is going to hit the shan..

[mlc9852]

Why do we need "reform"? Don't we have enough immigration laws? We just need to enforce them!

[linear]

We've been sold down the river for some time now.

[inquest]

If McKennedy passes the Senate, it won't make it past the other house.

[dirtboy]

My prediction: We will be sold down the river.

My prediction - at least one and probably two new political parties for 2008.

[Blackirish]

This will really turn W's poll numbers around the dims will see that he really is a nice guy and the base will stick with him no matter what. sarc off.

[DoughtyOne]

Bend over citizens...

[trek]

"My prediction: We will be sold down the river"

Sadly, I fear you are correct.

[VU4G10]

"guest workers and then have a chance to earn permanent status"

IS THIS NOT AMNESTY?

[stopem]

We already have been sold down the river. The socialists are celebrating.

[yellowdoghunter]

This plan is amnesty, no matter how they try to spin it.

[Dog]

Like I said...uh oh.

[TXBSAFH]

BOHICA!!!!!

[hershey]

We'll be sold down the river because big business has Bush's ear. But come November and elections, the American people will speak loud and clear and the republicans had better listen.

[TXBSAFH]

I call it hte Shamnesty.

[La Enchiladita]

This way, everyone at the extremes (big business and socialists) is happy, and guess who gets screwed?

[yellowdoghunter]

Can you believe, once again, we are letting Kennedy write the bills???? (Kinda like "No child left behind", a huge government program.) Unbelievable!!

I guess we will let the chips fall where they may.
