This is a 30 year problem and they should come up with effective policy in dealing with it. Top priority is keeping more illegals from getting in, lower priority is throwing the ones already in out or converting them to legals.

They are not going to round all of them up and throw them out so you can forget that option. But they will go after the businesses that hire illegals which will dry a lot of it up. It will be a combination of round some up and earned amnesty for the rest.

They are not going to build a publicly financed wall. It's not going to happen from a political standpoint because opponents would demogogue it "Mr. Bush tear down this wll ...". So that ain't gonna happen. However, The Minuteman and other orgs will build some walls which will help. The feds will increasingly send in more guards and perhaps troops to shut it down.

So I think the issue will be slowly addressed over time. It will never be fully addressed perfectly. I'm just not falling for this dem manufactured issue to divide the base. A 30 year old problem suddenly gets turned into a crisis. Give me a break.

That's just not enough for the Wrist Slitter Wing of the GOP; they want it NOW, damnit.

Just imagine the media storm there would be if we tried to throw out all of the illegals (IE the media showing pictures of ICE agents rounding up women and children, played thousands of times over)? It would be political suicide for anyone to try it, unfortunatly.

If we are to implement kicking out illegals, we must make sure that the media stays away.
