Well, while our side of the aisle is disorganized, the left is organizing.

On Thursday, Rep. Hilda Solis, D-Calif., and co-sponsor Rep. Luis Gutierrez, D-Ill plan to introduce a bill in the U.S. House that calls for a commission to study the "deportation and coerced emigration" Mexicans in the 1930's! And reparations are mentioned!

It's a USA Today article today, front page, titled "US urged to apologize for 1930s deportations". We can't post USA Today articles here or I'd post it.

IMHO, no bill is better than a bad bill. "Progress" is a illusion if it means amnesty for who knows how many illegals. The 11-million number may well be low. And they will keep coming--nothing will change.

Brit's panel were unanimous: No immigration bill.

[The Senate/McKennedy bill won't pass, so probably none with get through this session.]

Definitely. The worst possible scenario would be some type of "Gang of 14" compromise that persuades Republican senators to support it in the deluded hope that the base won't hold it against them come election time! As I said on another thread yesterday, he two words in the English language that are the most chilling, when used together, are "Senate" and "compromise" (with "Kennedy" and "automobile" a distant second).

Solution simple, armed forces with orders to shoot to kill on the southern border, deport all the illegal invaders, No amnesty, no worker program. Problem solved.

Reparation I dont think so!!

Mexico owes us!

Beat me to it. The simplest solution is nearly always the one most assured of success. Pass HR 4437.

Call your Senator today!

What does anyone think about requiring immigrants to perform 2 years of military service to gain citizenship?

this way they all get to play politics with our lives and freedom while creating civil unrest, more racism and more opportunities for these peckerheads to write more laws.

As a long time Republican and contributor, I am done with the RINO party and since I cannot ever vote for a DemoRAT I will sit the next national election out. I have no other choice.

Here's the guy I was talking about earlier.

Shoot to kill illegals coming over the border.

Shades of Stasi.

The Republicans in the Senate did not even take it up. HR 4437 is dead.

They have the Presidency and the "leadership" of both parties. All we have is the people. The Bush/Kennedy/McCain/Hillary pro-criminal, anti-sovereignty, left is going to be hard to beat.

What became of Bush's promise of doubling the Border Control Agents from 10,000 to 20,000?

WND: "three of the four major Hispanic activist groups behind the recent rallies receive massive funding from the Ford Foundation as well as more limited support from Carnegie and Rockefeller."

I know many Freepers don't believe in this stuff but most of the US politicians are more beholding to the CFR and the one worlders than they are to this country. Proof! Actions speak louder than words. Politicians that are promoting open boarders during these times of terrorism are either traitors or they are insane. Most politicians hold a JD, and we all know how trust worthy lawyers are.

In otherwords you are voting for the party of Cynthia McKrazy and Harry "I was against illegal immigration before I was against immigration reform" Reid.

I'm sorry you didn't get the sprinkles on your ice cream sundae!
