I wonder if the volume was turned down a bit and both sides tried to work this out, something couldn`t be created to solve this issue.
I know that just saying NO to everything is really granting the illegals AMNESTY. See, amnesty means having no penalty for illegal acts. That`s what is happening now in the real world. Different way to look at things, huh?

There are numerous penalties for illegal immigration on the books now, for both the aliens themselves, and those who aid or employ them. So, trot out the Tony Snow spin and call it a different way of looking at things until you're blue in the face, but it's still untrue. I say YES to enforcement of the laws on the books and NO to rewarding border-jumping scofflaws.

Not really. If we manage to get some good people into power in 2008 without passing this garbage first, those people will be able to use the existing law to take action against the illegals. While it's true that nobody's taking much action against illegals now, as long as this garbage doesn't pass the possibility will remain open of that changing in future.

Once this garbage passes, however, it will be much, much harder (and in many cases impossible) to do anything about this invasion.

Oh, my! You have ALL the RNC talking points down, don't you?

That is the single most warped definition of amnesty--it's downright insulting, and dishonest!
