Yes it is.

A far better “plan” would be to finish Duncan Hunter’s border fence, and enforce the damn laws we have now.

From just about everything I've read and heard over the past few days, I think this bill is either DOA or will be severely altered as it moves through the process. I'm guessing even our clueless, thick-headed solons have gotten the point that nobody likes this one.

“I don’t know what this means—but WTF aren’t they concerned with protecting citizens from illegal aliens who are sex offenders?

Oh, and Sanctuary Cities are A-OK:”

Unbelievable!! They ARE the offenders!!

“Oh, and section 7 says it out loud.

EMPLOYERS CANNOT USE THE VERIFICATION SYSTEM FOR SCREENING PRIOR TO AN OFFER OF EMPLOYEMENT.

EMPLOYERS CANNOT FIRE ANYONE ON THE BASIS OF A TENTATIVE NONCONFIRMATION.

EMPLOYERS CANNOT USE THE VERIFICATION SYSTEM (except as described in a completely different document) AFTER THREE DAYS EMPLOYMENT”

Useless!!

“Got that? That is for ALL costs, including defense, prosecution, autopsies, translators, interpreters, court costs.

I hereby dub this bill “The Globalist Wet Dream and Mexico Ass-Kissing Act of 2007.”

This bill is treason.”

Nuff said!!

I am reminded that Senator Kennedy once wrote a children’s book (starring his Water Spaniel — no joke, he has a swimming dog named “Splash”!) called How a Bill Becomes a Law.

I would like to see if that book actually says, “After years of doing nothing, a select cabal meet and hastily throw together a Mulligan stew which no one can possibly understand, and then get it passed with lightning speed, so that no one has a chance to see what is really hidden in the text. That is the way Uncle Ted does it, kiddies. Now, just for old time’s sake, shall we all take a ride across a rickity bridge?”

Cute.

I think that this bill should be the end of the McCain candidacy.

The President is charged to take care that the laws be faithfully executed.

Our present laws in this matter are more than adequate.

No new laws are needed.

Those that pass this should be held criminally responsible.

Excellent work, sir.

I have passed this around the outside FR world already.

Great work.

“The Globalist Wet Dream and Mexico Ass-Kissing Act of 2007.”

So named. (sound of gavel coming down).

1) The Senate Bill Would Make It Impossible To Deport Most Illegal Aliens For Years "What about illegal alien protection? The alien and their families who file applications for amnesty �shall not be detained, determined inadmissible, deported, or removed until their applications are finally adjudicated, unless they commit a future act that renders them ineligible with amnesty.� With tens of millions of applications, this amnesty, this provision essentially guarantees an illegal alien years of protection in the United States, even if they do not qualify for the amnesty." -- Jeff Sessions 2) Consultations Between United States And Mexican Authorities At...

Thomas only gives temporary links, so you have to print everything and then hope it is not amended.

I hope this is killed. This is insane from the risk of terrorism, e.g. 911, Fort Dix Six, etc., to the cost of entitlements and the welfare state. Call or write your Senators and Representative.

One half the Ft. Dix six are here illegally with a combined 65 violation, under the nose of the police and nothing is done for years.

But this mess [above] will be enforced after 20M illegals are dclared legal.

I would remind everyone that an estimated 1/3 to 1/2 of the illegals in the USA entered the country legally and have overstayed what their visa or entry documents allowed. That would be an estimated minimum of 4 million over-stayers based on a minimum estimate of 12 million illegals currently residing in country. Source: USA Today article of May 1, 2006; http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/editorials/2006-05-01-our-view_x.htm

Would anyone be willing to grant amnesty to all of these folks who have overstayed their welcome. You can be sure the current Senate legislation does not address this issue in any meaningful way.

Grey Whiskers, thanks for this. I say this through gritted teeth, because the more I read about this debacle, the angrier I get. And oh yes, did you know that the RNC has issued a request that all good Republicans support this...thing?

But, just so you know, according to those same Republicans, this is not an amnesty bill. (They’re right: It’s actually much worse than that.)

This is The Great Molestation of 2007. Asking us to “Sssh!” while they do unspeakable things and telling us we’ll actually grow to enjoy it. Disgustorment!
