''What we really want is for Congress to pass a bill that recognizes the fact there is virtually no reasonable legal means for foreigners to come to the United States to do the work most Americans are unwilling to do at any price,''

Really? Any price? So, if you offer $100/hour, no Americans are going to take it? Please.

And there are no legal foreign workers in the US? Please.

What we really need is for people like this idiot to stop breaking the law, importing paupers to work for a pittance.

Uh....excuse me, but since when do criminals get to determine their own "punishment".

Your ass belongs in a bus headed south of the border, and be glad you don't get jailed for a time before deportation.

I am SICK of these whining law-breakers sucking the life and dollars out of this country, and being handed benefits at the cost of the taxpayer.

If Germany had invaded the United States in 1942, would we have welcomed THEM?????

''I've started to save money, but I don't think I'll have enough once it becomes law,'' said Lucía de la Crúz, a Homestead farm worker from Guatemala.

And how does this criminal know it will pass?

Yeah right. The Mexican Invaders will do that right after I buy a house in Siberia. The Mexican Invaders are not interested in anything short of IMMEDIATE Amnesty.

As a legal immigrant I resent the slap in the face to my parents who brought me here and had to wait for years and go through a ton of hurdles. The amnesty is a slap in the face to the many millions of legal immigrants who rather than come here as invaders, came here to be americans.

STOP AMNESTY NOW!! WE CAN DO IT!!

Question:

What if the criminal aliens, crooks, terrorists and narco-gangsters don’t want amnesty? Why should they? Wouldn’t they have to pay taxes? How can you force criminals to become citizens? Why would you? If these people really wanted to be real citizens they wouldn’t use phony ID’s.

NO AMNESTY for Employers or Employees!

Let them come here to work when we need the work to be done, then go back home to their country. Let the Mexican government pay for their health care and education here.

If all the illegals here save up their money for the amnesty, I wonder what that’ll do to the repatriation of money back to Mexico? The Mexican economy is heavily dependent on the flow of those dollars.

Strange article. They can just remain illegals. The only difference is that they won't have to pay taxes.

Legal aliens will be able to ask for higher wages.

Illegals have moved to more lucrative jobs. Like steling 250,000+ construction jobs from Americans, many of whom are veterans. DEPORT them all!

So do the illegals get to vote on this as well? Or is this just the start of public opinion surveys on the subject?

No.

Let them get out of Dodge and slink back across the border to the cesspool we know as Mexico.

They do the most important things here that life as we know it would cease if they would leave: blow leaves, pick tomatoes, wash cars, run rider-mowers, rob rape and murder Americans.

They don't belong here, they belong South of the border as they are the dregs of Mexican society. They're pleading leaches and disease carriers who carry lice and bedbugs to el Norte.

Our Elite Political Class is a bunch of faithless scum who need to be led out of their DC quarters back into whence they came.

Just look at them!

Just look at what we have allowed these leftist pansies to do to us and this nation. It is, indeed, scandalous.

Pick any one of the senators (with VERY few exceptions), take the sniveling KKK member Robert Byrd who mistakenly believes he's the intellectual of the senate. He just won't shut up.

Then we have another lifer, Teddy Kennedy who is owned by the communists.

Wow. Just wait until you’re a Citizen and you, too, can fork over any and all of your extra cash to the Government to pay for other illegals JUST LIKE YOU! You won’t have a spare DIME for saving then. Yeesh!!

I’m going to find some minor laws to break today...maybe spit on the sidewalk in public, or smoke a cigarette where I’m not supposed to. (I don’t even smoke.) Join a football pool. Tag a few buildings with spray paint, a little shoplifting, maybe buy an illegal handgun...and work my way up from there.

Why should I follow any laws? Tens of millions of immigrants aren’t expected to! Grrrrrr!
