...trying to force them to leave would be impossible, However, if employers would be fined $500,000 for hiring illegal labor and the second infraction would carry a jail sentence of one year, I dont think wed have to force them to leave. They would not be hired anywhere, and of course, it goes without saying that NO social services should be granted to those here illegally. The Catholic Church would be even more broke if it tried supporting all the illegals who were unemployed.
How about civil forfeiture of all possessions since they and any belongings aren't supposed to be here - including clothes. This will finance their deportation. Forced march them to the border on foot in their fluorescent orange jumpsuits and cloth shoes.

We don't need mass deportations.
We need to dry up the jobs, kick them out of our public schools, deny them health care, and deport those who commit crimes the day they commit the crime.

Amazingly (or maybe not) Chertoff manages to lie to everybody.
It's not that total deportations are not possible, just that he doesn't cre to plan for them. On the other hand, keeping the Mexicans (85% of the illegal alien cohort) here doesn't bring any of them closer to citizenship.
Chertoff is being less than honest when he and others suggest that they might wait up to 13 years ~ that's because no one can get out of the Z Visa category to the Green Card category until all those presently in the legal immigration channels have been accepted (or rejected).
Mexico all by itself has a 128 year waiting list ~ you can imagine how many legal immigrant applicants there are in the total pipeline for that to have happened.
No Mexican Z-Visa holder will ever in his or her lifetime qualify for citizenship.
It's a baldface lie to tell them otherwise. Instead, the illegal aliens from Mexico, if not from everywhere else, are facing a lifetime of twilight presence in this country which will quickly turn them into an underclass similar to that of the more formal peonage that used to be practiced throughout the Spanish empire.

People all around the country will be seeing teary-eyed children whose parents are going to be deported."Good. Happens every day, when some parent is sent to prison. Nobody even notices. In fact the illegals' kids have an advantage--they can go back to mexico or wherever right along with their criminal parents.

It’s actually simple. Jail the employers and the illegals will deport themselves.

Chertoff: "We're going to enforce the law,"
He says it like thats a threat or something. What the HELL ELSE DID YOU GET APPOINTED FOR PINHEAD?

Thank you. Hope all will take the time to read it.
To: KittyKares
Which gives me an instant idea ~ let's simply ship all the illegal aliens to Texas and then return Texas to Mexico ~ sans any moveable wealth which we will keep.
If all those illegals are supposed to be good for the USA imagine how fantastic it will be for Mexico to get them back as well as all of "W"'s and Chertoff's buddies.
Seems workable to me ~ even though we might have to be prepared to shoot down Texicans trying to flee the new border into the real USA.

You are very welcome.
You should post it in it’s own thread, IMO.

James Webb organized essentially the same group in Virginia to get the Democrat nomination to run for Senate, and then he won the Senate seat with them.
Your new party is well underway in the Old Dominion.

U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said in an interview published on Thursday Chertoff is only good at buying trailers and parking them in Arkansas, what a waste of air.

"We're going to enforce the law," he said. He's threatening to do what he gets paid for?

As a neighbor, an elderly woman, says, “I’ll pick my own lettuce.”
Does that give you any idea Mr. Chertoff how p1ssed the American people are?

This is not a hot-button issue for me like it is a lot of people.
But even to me, Chertoff comes off looking like a complete jerk, basically saying "I suck at my job, and don't really want to do it anyway, so let's all just say I don't have to bother trying do it anymore. But I'll still get paid for it."
There is a serious disconnect here, between what "the people" think the problem is, and what the "leaders" think the problem is. Both sides are talking past each other. But when one side is PAYING the other side to do a job, you'd think the side that is getting paid would maybe listen to what it is that they're supposed to be doing.
We have no shortage of labor in America, there are lots of unemployed low-skill people who can't read or write English, living in America's inner cities. Millions. They've been specifically trained to be illiterate and unskilled by the urban school systems. So he's lying about that part, the supposed shortage of people to do those jobs.

And if Mr. Chertoff is unwilling to enforce current law, then maybe its time for him to step aside in favor of someone who will.
