I'm waiting until I hear the speech to pass judgement on the speech, rumors coming out make me nervous about what will be said about this situation. I don't hold out a lot of hope that he's changed his position. I never said he lied, because he has always said what he wants as far as immigration is concerned, which is why the illegals started streaming in here right after the 2000 election.

My hope has always been our representatives would stand up to him on this issue that I, personally, feel he is wrong on. In my case, two of my three representatives are in the right territory, John McCain is another story.

I have supported (and still do) 99% of what our President has done while in office, this is about the only thing I have not supported from the very beginning.

I live in a border state and it is costing everyone in our state millions of dollars, pushing our emergency rooms beyond capacity (financial and otherwise), our schools are failing miserably because so much money is going into billingual education and the classrooms are over burdened, our prisons and jails are overburdened with a large population being illegal immigrants...our crime rate, in our fairly small town, has exploded with a large portion coming from illegals who are working for the local luxury boat manufacturers. I just cannot support amnesty for illegals, and anyway you cut it, this plan of McCain/Kennedy the President is supporting, is amnesty.
