I liked your "house-cleaning" analogy too, but I objected to very first premise: that I was the one who does not understand the difference between "legal" and "illegal" immigration - so, I'm not ignoring it. There are people here at FR who want to stop all the illegal house-cleaning as well as all LEGAL house-cleaning. Apart from that, what I would object to in my private home is very different from what I would object to in my country as a whole. The reason(s) I have walls in my private house, for instance, are very different - sometimes the opposite - from why this country should have walls. Does that help?
No, because other than the walls you site, there is no difference, and if the Senate version stands we are about to significantly expand the size of our govenment and their intrusion into our lives. Little by little the RINO's are helping the Dems turn us into a socialistic utopia (utopia for the government, not the people).
