Without meaningful border security, there's no guarantee that illegals will cheerfully pay fines, go home, and wait in line. They've already broken the laws prior. Why should they comply now?

Bush said that all the other steps in his AMNESTY won't begin until the enforcement is taken care of. Well, we've been had twice on this, once in 1965, and again 1986. Fool me once...

Bush is totally out to lunch on this issue, and it jeopardizes his other accomplishes as well.

If they don't want to apply for a green card or eventual citizenship, they don't have to pay a fine nor do they have to go home. The Z visa can be renewed indefinitely. And there will be no waiting in line in their home country. It is a quick turnaround [touchback] just to apply for the green card/immigrant visa. They [heads of households] are assured a return no matter what happens to their application, which is processed behind those already in the queque.

All illegals are given immediately a probationary visa. Six months after the bill is signed, the illegals can apply for their Z visas. They have a year to apply but the Secretary for Homeland Security can add an additional year so someone will probably have a two and one-half year window to get their Z visa. I can envisage a stampede of people trying to get into the US during this window.

Did you know that we, the conservative critics, are trying to scare the American public about the illegal immigration bill?.

You didn't know this?

President Bush said this today in one of his speeches...

Just heard this on Fox News!
