LOL - that's hilarious. You don't think that congress amends existing laws? What planet have you been on?
The democrats wouldn't do away with this law, they would just "enhance" it by increasing the family unification quotas or completely do away with the border enforcement benchmarks.
Once again - the democrats can alter this bill anyway they want when they are in total power. The only thing the passage of this law right now would do is to give them a foundation to build on.
Exactly you just made my point, the foundation of this bill would be based on Bi-partisan support with ammendments that included things that the GOP wants like Border security, No citizenship rights to be granted, Felons to be deported, and illegals only granted guest worker provisions. The legislation is actually a great starting point to fix the problems. Your hold them accountable now stance with existing laws that is what isn’t working, won’t work, can’t work and has absolutely no bi-partisan support. Just think of the logistics involved in finding, accounting and deporting the 12-14 million existing illegals... that is what makes me LOL....
So keep dreaming about enforcing existing laws the squishy middle just isn’t into it and the elite classes want their landscaping and pool cleaners to remain affordable and Latino. So like I said bottom line you either take what you can get now or
Do like so many are and get pissed off at Bush and the GOP and then don’t vote, won’t vote or vote for the opposition... say what you want this is the wedge that broke the GOP in NOV 06 lots of conservatives did stay at home because of this issue. If you do it in 08 you doom the party...
go ahead and read post #606.... Cottonball is one of those confused individuals that actually believes maybe the Liberals will fix immigration better then the Conservatives now that my friend is seriously funny....
