But we just had an amnesty for illegal aliens in 1986.
And illegal immigration is down 24% since President Bush took office.
When did all this happen???
My opinion is based on the recent media flap surrounding immigration. The left could've made this an issue in the 2004 Presidential campaign and there wasn't a peep.
The media and the Dems were silent on the immigration issue until just recently when they decided it could be a campaign issue for them.
It sounds like you two are going along for the ride.
I'd rather see The Republicans get off their lazy butts and do something, but remember that this issue is less than a year and a half old for anybody outside California, New Mexico or Arizona.
The only thing Congress can do fast is raise taxes. And to do that, it needs to be full of Dems.
"It sounds like you two are going along for the ride."
It's been a growing issue for many for quite a while. Just didn't hit the national stage until recently.
Who says I'm going along for the ride?
Just reporting the facts as I see them. People around here, many that make their living doing "jobs Americans won't do",
are plenty pissed off.
I say again: The GOP ignores their base on this issue at their peril.
