Here's a civil question.

Why does Michigan need "guest workers" when we have one of the worst economies in the country?"

We've already got plenty of illegal aliens.

KEY PROVISIONS OF IMMIGRATION BILLS Bill passed in the U.S. House:

# Makes it a federal crime for illegal immigrants to stay in the U.S.

# Makes it a crime to shield or support an illegal immigrant.

# Requires the Department of Homeland Security to build five fences along 698 miles of the U.S. border with Mexico.

# Contains no guest-worker plan.

Would like to see this passed. Welcome mat should be pulled and in it's place a huge flashing sign, No socialists allowed! You are NOT welcome!

Thursday, Bush called for advocates on all sides of the immigration debate to be "civil."

Have ya ever noticed that every time he thinks he is not gonna get his way he resorts to name calling? Minutemen = vigilantes, Dubai Port Deal = racists, Illegal immigration = uncivil.

Well if civil = guest worker/amnesty he can stick it! The illegals are not civil why do we have to be?

Illegal aliens march in the streets or our major cities without fear of arrest demanding rights that they most definately are not and should not be entitled to and the a-holes in the senate want to cave in and grant them amnesty.

Not only no but HELL NO!!! ANY type of amnesty/guest worker plan will sound the death knell for the GOP in November.

And to those who ask if I want dems in power, absolutely not. But I've always found it easier to fight those that are your enemy than to have to worry about your friends stabbing you in the back when you aren't looking. At this point those GOP members in the senate that are pushing the guest workers plan are traitors to the principals of the party.

Specter should have been shown the door when the chance presented itself in 2004. We are now reaping the "rewards" of having that rat in republican clothing remain in office.

Yep. Nothing gets fixed if we only fight when "our" side is in power. If the democrats take power I have no intent of sitting on my butt crying about them being in power. I intend to continue the fight.

"ANY type of amnesty/guest worker plan will sound the death knell for the GOP in November."

You err seriously in running these two things together. Nothing wrong with a guest worker program as long as 1) it doesn't apply to any illegal currently in the US, 2) can only be applied for from the prospective guest worker's home country, 3) is for a limited time period, 4) "birthright citizenship" does NOT apply to any children born to the "guest worker" during that time, and 5) offers NO path to citizenship.

The thing that is anathema is any sort of amnesty that offers any kind of path to citizenship or permanent residency.

You may think I err seriously but anything other than the plan you detailed would be a form of amnesty.

Since we all know that the plan you detailed is not one they'd ever have the guts to pass I don't consider myself in error.

Free Republic members, if you're against the effort to legitimize criminals you can make your wishes known at the following links with minimal effort on your part:

FAIR's Oppose Amnesty Page

NumbersUSA's Contact Congress Page

If you're pleased with the results of the 1986 amnesty please continue enabling this socialist mob that is skewing population numbers in favor of the Democrat Party everywhere they settle. Far better to accept our leadership's plan and avoid being called a racista. Abrace la diversidad. La economía se derrumbará sin ellos...

we have 4.8% unemployment rate hire americans that is why I was aginst the Dubai ports deal. Americans should deal with americans stuff not the other way around. I know that soem foreign companies are running some ports in the east and west coast and I am against that as well.

Please call them INVADERS and don't compare them to people who are legal aliens!


President Bush has been great on most things except for our border.
He has been great on the war on terrorists.
But on the border he is a gross failure.
He acted fast and correct on the 3,000+ people murdered at the world trade center.
He ignores the many rapes, murders and robberies which might be larger than the murders and money loss at the world trade center.
More Americans are abducted on the border of Mexico than in Iraq!

Start building the fence.

It should be made a felony for Criminals who overstay their visas and Invaders.

I believe we should give amnesty to these poor CRIMINALS or INVADERS.
This should be a 2 week amnesty to get the heck out of our Country.
The ones who ignore this amnesty should be buried in a tent city jail and fined $10,000 or buried elsewhere.
All aiders and abettors of these CRIMINALS or INVADERS should get 1 year in a tent city jail and a $10,000 fine for each CRIMINAL aided.
Those in government should be the first ones charged.

"If you're doing a job an American won't do, you're welcome here for a period of time to do that job"

Mister President,

Shame on you! There is NO job that Americans won't do provided it pays the bills and keeps the family fed. Just because you're too lazy or effete to do them yourself, gives you no right to speak for your countrymen.

These jobs are often the only source of income for American citizens lacking a college education. Not every man and woman in this country WANTS or NEEDS to go to college. Quit taking food out off the plates of American citizens and giving it to foreigners here ILLEGALLY to advance your crack-brained scheme for ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT.

There. I said it.

Your post was so good it needed to be repeated!

Bush was calling for civility because of what Hillary said.
