(Update: On Tuesday, May 16, the Senate passed Sen. Jeff Bingaman's (D-NM) amendment to S. 2611 that significantly reduced the number of legal immigrants who could enter under the bill's "guest worker" program. As a result of this change, our estimate of the number of legal immigrants who would enter the country or would gain legal status under S. 2611 falls from 103 million to around 66 million over the next 20 years.)

If this bill passes, the Republican Party's obituary has been written. How many of these tens of millions of underclass immigrants would vote Republican? Teddy Kennedy knows the answer; that's why he's sponsoring the bill. My question: Why is Bush supporting it? Is he a DIRC - a Democrat in Republican Clothes?
The Heritage study is predicting 10s of millions of LEGAL immigrants from Mexico and South America, because of the Senate bill's loosened rules on LEGAL immigration. But the fact that it would be LEGAL (under these new rules) wouldn't make underclass immigration of this scale GOOD -- unless you're a Democratic Party strategist who salivates at all those new Democratic voters.
Mexico's already said they're 'integrating' with the US, and Fox called his trip to four US western states a 'victory'. Even the number of illegals already here is bogus. It's not 11 million. It's closer to forty million, and when democrats ensure that illegals get the vote, you won't recognize the good old USofA. We'll be Mini-Mexico. Mexico decided they had no use for their lower class. Didn't want to waste money educating them, finding jobs for them or anything else. They preferred ethnic cleansing, and we enabled them to do it. Not only did they get rid of those inconvenient little 'brown' faces, they persuaded them to send money home, by the billions. As a result, remittances make up the biggest part of the economy, more than tourism, oil, or even drugs. Never mind what impact this has had and will continue to have on the US, Mexico is being depopulated -- conservative estimate: one quarter of her citizens are already here, entire villages have been left vacant, and now the middle class is heading north. This is not a good thing, not for Mexico, not for the US.
Our legislators want this to all happen LEGALLY. So it's not
really a matter of crossing the border, our american socialists and rhinos are inviting them all in.
Good question, and one I can't answer. I can't believe that all the conservatives on this site cannot see that allowing in all these illegals from socialist Mexico as voting citizens ASSURES that the USA will "go socialist" by means of the "Progressive" Democrats as a "permanent Democrat majority" even worse that what FDR left for half a century.
"If this bill passes, the Republican Party's obituary has been written."
I don't always agree with what happens within the party, but it scares me at the idea of the current dems holding so much power. To some level, I think it might split the country, if it happens.
