What happens to GWB’s last 18 mos. after this Amnesty Bill fails, or after it passes?

I get twelve years:

Yep. 12 years.

If one cannot learn reasonable English in 12 years, one really should not be working and living in America's advanced technological society.

Most people can learn at least the rudiments of any foreign language (especially if they LIVE in that culture) in a month or two, or even less.

There are hundreds of resources for people to learn English, and some of the very best are free and/or online.

Hi Ali...

You said..”People seem to miss the word illegal”

We have to keep calling the unlawful entrants what they are...ILLEGAL ALIENS...That’s a legal term...

They are not immigrants...immigrants come here LEGALLY...

The term immigrant conjures up the appearance of legality.. and everything pertaining to lawful entrance into our country...

Most people dont know what is included in the requirements for immigration...they dont know that in the provisions of the AMNESTY Bill, the illegal aliens are not required to meet any of the prerequisites mandated by law...

Lemme guess, Tony said:

1) This is NOT amnesty.

2) We need to pass this bill in order to protect our borders.

3) Those who oppose this bill are xenophobes, bigots, and unpatriotic.

>God help the law-abiding American citizen. He no longer has anywhere to turn for justice and security – the only two real Constitutional powers that his federal government is supposed to have.<

When you posted this comment did you realize how many people, who are on the receiving end of government programs, would resist these restrictions on our federal government?

Having acclimated themselves into this now dependent lifestyle, where the need for self reliance only cost them a few personal rights, they are now once again comfortable.

I don't understand it but then I have always never believed that to get along, you must go along.

There are 47 listed amendments for S.AMDT.1150.
There are 350 listed amendments for S.1348.

I stand corrected.

There's nothing stated in the bill so do they get to apply for some other visa, do they get deported...

LOL!!! Just like illegals get deported now, right?

He’s trying to ride No Child Left Behind as his a big achievement. Looks like he’s tying his legacy to Ted Kennedy.

>I also noticed that there is nothing stating what happens if they fail the test.<

I think the plan is that in 12 years US citizenship won’t be a necessity to live, work or vote in the NAU. I think that the prinary issue in Washington is not to anger the people so much that we refuse to pay any and all taxes.

Ummm...not to rain on your parade, but they're not learning, much less speaking, English NOW and many illegal aliens have been living here for over 12 years.
Pure fantasy is what this bill is.

I dont know...

We do need to keep calling...Emailing etc..its not over...

Better to do something...anything..rather than kick ourseves later thinking there was something we could have done...

I’m going to DC tomorrow to this March for America...

http://www.lframerica.com/march2.html

Although Ive known about it since April, I hadnt decided to go...This AMNESTY Bill fiasco was the deciding thing for me...

I love America and I have to do something...I have to stand up and be heard...This may be the last chance any of us have to protest what is being done to our country without our sayso...

I’m tired and I’d rather stay home, and leave this to younger people but I have to go ...

I owe my country too much to just sit still while anti-American hordes destroy the greatest country in the world for all time...leaving no future for our children and grandchildren...

If the illegal aliens and their anti-American supporters got their way, America would not be recognizable as the same wonderful free country in just a generation or two...

Perhaps Mara knows more than she's letting on and this really is a concession bill instead of a compromise bill.

If that’s the case then I am just another one of those crazy ding bats and there should be no need for concern.

Everyone, get back to watching Oprah so you can learn about global warming from the experts.

Damn! I thought I'd cornered the market on being "the crazy ding bat".
Hurray! I'm not alone! LOL

Your time line is correct, but your warning of doom is understated. This isn’t going to be a simple morphing of the US...it will be a devastation of the culture, the economy, and could eventually will lead us to armed conflict within our boundaries.
