Duh. Isn't it obvious that we have lots of poor uneducated citizens, some of whom would do work currently taken up by 20 million illegal immigrants? I was very saddened when president Bush referred to work "an American woker won't do." You mean there aren't people who need work as landscapers, nannies, etc? I don't buy it.

Jail those who hire illegals. 5 years minimum. Cut ALL social services to illegal aliens. Remove all official signs and choices (push 1 for spanish) in any language other than english.

They might start getting the idea that they are NOT WANTED HERE and go the f*ck home.

``President Bush outsources high-tech jobs and imports illegal immigrant labor,'' Ramirez said. ``The question is, what happens to middle-class America?''

And he refuses to enforce border security unless we accept his "plan".

Somebody please remind me: what makes this tyrant different than the Taliban?

It's all about money folks. Greed instead of national security. Campaign contributions instead of doing what is right. Buying votes instead of earning them. Greed instead of principle.

Native-born teenagers (15 to 17) also saw their labor force participation fall from 30 percent in 2000 to 24 percent in 2005.

This might have something to do with labor laws. My nephew tried to do summer farm work (6'2" at 14 years old) and found out that he couldn't legally work, not even haying(!) until he was 16. And they wonder why some people hire illegals. Stupid law. I don't know about other states.

It really ticks me off is that Senator McCain has formed another unholy alliance with Senator Kennedy to screw up our immigration laws.

Why are the Republicans in the Senate allowing these bottom feeders to write any important legislation?

Anything written by either Kennedy or McCain is usually bad legislation. A Kennedy-McCain bill is the worst scenario for our Republic.

``The question is, what happens to middle-class America?''

And the answer from inside the beltway is. . . "Die, working class trash!"

"Why are the Republicans in the Senate allowing these bottom feeders to write any important legislation?"

Two points: 1) McCain is neither a republican nor conservative and 2)RINOs coould care less about hard working Americans. It is obvious I refused to vote for McCain but he won here hands down. The GOP will pour money into liberal left leaning candidates but will ignore true conservatives like Hayworth and Tancredo. The GOP is going to learn a lesson in 06 and 08 and unfortuantely you and I will have to bear the brunt of their stupidity for years to come.

What is one of the major goals of the Commies?

The elimination of the middle class.

We live in scary times when our own elected officials from both parties are so blatantly out there in continuing the work of the left to destroy this nation and last hope for Western civilization, some wittingly and others not so wittingly.

Amen!!!
Make English the official language of the US. Fine companies more than they save hiring illegals (by 3-5X). Jail company Presidents and HR directors if they hire illegals. Until it hurts they won't stop.

Jail those who hire illegals.

More importantly, seize all their assets, auction them off to law-abiding businesses and citizens, and use the proceeds to lower taxes on the citizens who are not being honestly represented in government.

You can always count on CIS to refute EVERY spin point the President, Congress, and illegal alien advocates throw out there.
It is really too bad that their studies are not picked up by the mainstream media. All Americans should be educated about illegals.

``Illegal immigrants do the jobs Americans won't do.''



That is simply not true. Factories in my area hire only Mexicans and Amrericans are regularly rejected.

The H1B visa charade is the same thing, where corporations will hire only H1B visa holders.

Illegals do the jobs Americans are barred from doing.

An immigration bill with the McCain-Kennedy imprimatur is the equivalent of a bill allowing foxes to guard chicken houses overnight.

How many chickens will be left in the morning?

In 1965, Kennedy told us that his immigration bill will not change the face of America. In those days, over 90% of our immigrants came from Europe. Now Europeans make up a tiny percentage of our newer immigrants.

Kennedy is a proven liar on this issue. He will just make things worse, much worse. I'm afraid of even reading the McCain-Kennedy bill; it must be filled with anti-American crap up to the brim.

Whenever you hear the phrase "jobs Americans won't do", substitute the phrase "jobs Americans won't do for $2 an hour".
