The politicians are just carryhing on another charade. Neither party wishes to address the problem, which is a loser politically. The Dems want more minority voters, especially among the largest and fastest growing minority in the country. One in every three Dem voters is either black or hispanic now. The Dems will demagogue the vote by pulling the race and the "nation of immigrants" cards. They will paint the GOP as racist and lacking compassion.

The GOP is split. The business community, including some large political donors, want the continuing flow of cheap labor. Some GOP pols with large hispanic populations are also concerned about the political consequences, especially as we head into the mid-terms.

Nothing substantive will come from all of this. It will be all window-dressing. They will throw some money at it for more border patrol guards, equipment, etc and easing restrictions on moving between Mexico and the US. Most illegals won't participate in a guest worker program. Any hint of amenesty or something like it will increase the flow.

"largest and fastest growing minority in the country"

Largely due to massive illegal immigration, however.

I agree. It is another diversion tactic that will resolve nothing and the illegals will continue to cross and build their presence until in my opinion there is an attempt by the people to launch a Civil War. Our government will never allow a Civil War to happen. You will see our military (tanks and all) and the police take to the streets to prevent that.
