I knew by "horrid little man" that you must have meant Neal Gabler.

LOL. That's the one. For some reason, my mind refuses to remember his name.

The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRAIRA) severely restricts the availability of suspension of deportation - the remedy traditionally available to deportable aliens who have resided in the U.S. for considerable periods of time. Under the old law, suspension could be granted, at the discretion of the immigration judge, to an alien who has been present in the United States for seven years, shows good moral character, and demonstrates that deportation would cause "extreme hardship" to the alien or to a spouse, parent, or child who is a lawful permanent resident or a U.S. citizen.


Gingrich Speaker of the House from 1994 to 1998.

Amid threats of a rebellion in his caucus, he announced on November 6 [1998] that he would not only stand down as Speaker, but would leave the House as well. He had been elected to an 11th term in that election, but declined to take his seat.

Juan just told Brit that he's acting like the tough guy (with regard to the NSA)

Here 's the 9/11 liberal interviewing Yuan Williams where Yuan expresses some views on Brit Hume & Fox. Bit lengthy, but some parts I find interesting.

In lecturing Brit, Juan is getting too big for his britches.

Brian Wilson has been named the permanent anchor of Weekend Live.

Hooray. I cannot take Catherine Herridge and I just LOVE "the gazelle."

I like Jim too. When I visited the WH press room several summers ago, I made it a point to sit in Jim's seat. ;)

Most Americans support NSA's efforts.

Stop confusing the drive-by spin plans with facts, Americans are outraged at GWB all the time, I know I read it in the NYT and hear it on CNN don'tcha just know.

I wish INS had done what it was mandated to do. We would not have the magnitude of today's illegal residents. Just like many bureaucracies, the INS hassled middle-class potential immigrants (people who tried to enter legally) as a means of "feeling good" about doing their jobs. I don't want to take this thread in a immigration debate direction, I just wanted to make a comment about the abject failure ever since Reagan's Amnesty to live up to the enforcement half of the legislation.

Could that be what Bush is going to suggest tomorrow?

A couple of threads from yesterday about the upcoming speech:

Several reports have said the 'announcement of troops' is what is proposed in the Goode Amendment to the House bill. See below the reference to post #40 for the actual amendment.

BUSH'S PLAN TO STEM ALIEN TIDE

Another Scam? (the troops have no arrest or detention powers - only for one year)

See post #40 of the linked thread for full text of the Goode Amendment to put troops on the border.

The President will mention "a poster on that great American resource, FreeRepublic, has given us this brilliant suggestion...."

LOL. I don't see why not.

I would offer this defense of the NSA database of phone connections.

We have three ways of identifying Al Queda communications:

1) We can, through humint, stumble on one of their phone numbers.

2) We can set up a 1-800-BLO-MEUP hotline for terrorists to call in and volunteer their phone numbers.

3) We can monitor calling patterns between known Al-Queada areas and domestic numbers for connections that appear suspicious.

This also gives the benefit of instantly knowing the connections to a number that humint turns up from a known Al-Queda, being able to get whatever needed warrants, and move on the Al-Queda operatives here.

Agreed. I won't go further either but to say enforcing the law does not seem to be in vogue with some agencies. More conservative judges will help too, IMHO, which is why we must retain the presidency in 2008.

Thanks rodguy, it might be a little harsh, but I feel it needs saying.

That's one of the reasons why I'd like to see it moved over under the Coast Guard. There's an institution that has the "right stuff" to take on the job. The Coast Guard is already part of DHS, so it may even be an internal matter, not requiring legislation.

Wonderful solution! I agree with you about the entrenched bureaucracy, but I hate the hypocrisy on Capitol Hill when senators want to point fingers about how Situation X has not been solved yet. The Federal response to Katrina leaps to mind as an example.

That is very long and detailed. I will have to go back and read it later, but thank you.
