Sixty-nine percent (69%) of voters would favor an approach that focuses exclusively on “exclusively on securing the border and reducing illegal immigration.”

Prove that you can enforce the law; then we’ll talk about some kind of reform. As it stands right now, the only thing that the government has a track record of enforcing in this bill is the amnesty part.

Please. What kind of manufactured polling are we going to see now? I don't even want to hear the questions from this poll. We can expect to see tortured "polls" coming out now saying whatever combination of "facts" is necessary to tell the Senators to do whatever they want to do. Par for the course.

If you don't like the answer, just keep changing the question until you hear what you want to hear.

The following is a repeat of what I've posted on other immigration threads, but I think it's important:

I just got a note from grassfire.org, saying that IT ISN'T DEAD YET! Partial text follows:

"I was just informed that the back-room plan is currently underway to bring Bush-Kennedy back and get it quickly passed through the Senate. I call it "amendments for amnesty."

Here's what's happening.

President Bush and the Amnesty Republicans are attempting to convince about a dozen Republicans to support "cloture" on Bush-Kennedy in exchange for a commitment that a set list of amendments will be considered -- thus, "amendments for amnesty."

Also, Bush and the amnesty leaders are strong-arming conservatives into accepting the "amendments for amnesty" deal or face being banished into Senate oblivion.

Amnesty Republicans have already submitted their list of amendments to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Once the "amendments for amnesty" deal is finalized between Reid and the Republicans, the bill will be quickly brought back to the floor. The amendments will be defeated and amnesty passed."

Now, however, just 11% of Likely GOP Primary Voters name McCain as their top choice. In his home state of Arizona, McCain is viewed favorably by just 47% of voters

SOME IS SERIOUSLY DELUDING THEMSELVES.

I'm in Arizona, and since this mess started--I don't know ANYONE who would vote for McCain.

If this had not been tried before it might be different. We offered amnesty once but did nothing about our borders. Now we have the ones that didn’t bother to get legal the first time and the second wave. We need to stop more from coming in before dealing with the ones already here. Why is that so hard for them to understand? They should acknowledge our concerns and take this one step at a time. By refusing to do so, I have concerns that they have no intention of securing our borders.

My Eagle Forum chapter has issued an alert that today may be critical on the issue and to CALL your senators and say NO to amnesty.

You Tube

Reid

This week, we will vote on cloture and final passage of a comprehensive bill that will strengthen border security, bring the 12 million undocumented Americans out of the shadows, and keep our economy strong. In the days ahead, we will work to improve the bill to protect and strengthen family ties while improving the structure of the temporary-worker program.

El Presidente’ didn’t go to “Capital Hill” for the veterans who live in deplorable conditions at places like Walter Reed, but he sure doesn’t mind hauling his sorry behind to the Hill to promote elitism and a clear path to a banana republic for the US. The man is a disgrace to the office of President, or is that of Presidente’.
