Don't forget. Ted Kennedy is Public Enemy #1 on this issue.

He is trying for a repeat of the disastrous 1986 amnesty that opened the floodgates.

He hasn't stayed in office by being stupid. He knows they vote Dem.

I tried to read the entire thread, and haven't seen this yet, but please forgive me if it's a dupe.

To anyone new to the immigration issue, worth reading Phyllis Schafly's article about why there may be such lack of security on the border:

To me this is sort of "public relations" battle as well. I am just worry that we on our side have not found the right "tone" in order to fight this battle. I guess, it is impossible to find consensus on this as many people feel differently, as my very position indicates. The next two weeks will be critical.. if we can not come up with a "reasonable argument" we can use to persuade our politicians, they will just go ahead and find the way to pass it as they almost did this week. I mean, when the president himself, basically said "to hell with security, just get them in because our economy needs them" in addition to his "compassionate conservatism" crap... to impress those waffling senators will be an uphill battle.
