Right on! And be sure to tell them they we sent them up there to represent us... not Mexico or the illegal aliens.

Stripping away all the gobbledygook and propaganda on the amnesty bill: if they’re illegal today and not illegal if and when this big government boondoggle is passed and takes effect, then it’s amnesty.

Secure the borders already, but just say NO to amnesty!!

That's the truth.

Thre’s another big reason to push for defeat of the bill, if you want to play a little hardball with the Pols.

Bush refusing to enforce the borders and go after his business friends who hire illegal workers is a simple case of government corruption. Shades of Boss Tweed.

The cost of digging a ditch is what it is. When the government allows business to pass off some of its costs to the government treasury illegaly, it is undermining the free labor market.

The free labor market only works well under the rule of law - everybody playing by the same rules. When some companies cheat other companies have to cheat to stay competitive. The way a lot of companies are cheating today is by hiring illegal workers, paying them below market labor costs, and letting the taxpayer make up for it with health care, education, food stamps, etc. To me, it’s looking like a case of old-style government corruption on a massive scale.

I can only conclude that any politician that supports this bill is corrupt. (they think they can call me a racist, do they? I call them corrupt.)
