I had no idea Jesus was ever in the United States.

"4. Sen. Hillary Clinton (D.-N.Y.) Once said she was “adamantly against illegal immigrants,” now supports legalizing the 11 million illegals living in the U.S. Has vowed to block any bill criminalizing illegal immigration, suggested the House immigration bill would have made Jesus a criminal."
Making them voters is the only way she could ever win the White House.
You got that right.
I am suprised Raul Grijalva (RAT AZ) didn't make the list.
Hey Teddy so you don't want those wind generators blocking your pretty view up thar in Mass. What if gather up all the illegals and station them off the Mass. coast - they could ride stationary bikes to generate electric power... will that work?
Durbin.

"You aren't supposed to reveal that illegals hate the current bill/proposals as it isn't really amnesty and actually punishes and enforces immigration laws."
Well, that's remarkable because all the signs I saw specified the Sessenbrenner bill. Nice try though.
Re: "Durbin."
Sir/Madame, please get it right... its Dick Turdbin ;-)
Go look up the legal definition of Amnesty and then look at the bill..
Should include David Dryer (R California)
"Go look up the legal definition of Amnesty and then look at the bill."
Okey-dokey =
"n., a general pardon for offenses against the government, etc. "
I read the bill. It's a general pardon. Perhaps you have it confused with the McCain proposed bill which had the illegals pay a token fine as a ruse to pretend it wasn't an amnesty.
You lose.
Chris Cannon of Utah should be in the top ten, for sure.
