I would have to agree.

It would seem hard to believe that people that went to the trouble of getting here legally would punish those who don’t want others cutting in line and breaking the law they honored to get here.

Agreed. Just why would we want to enshrine law-breaking as a practice into American law? These people are not even required to earn forgiveness. Instead, its just handed out to them like candy. So I don't see how unilateral amnesty either benefits the alien in question or the country. That goes against every conservative principle. Its shocking to find Republicans even flirting with it. They would never buy it for domestic criminals. Therefore, why should illegal aliens be treated any differently?

Getting here illegally is easy. Unbelieveably Secretary Chertoff, of the Ministery of the Interior (Homeland Security) has admitted what was already crystal clear: that “we cannot enforce the laws.”

This government should promptly resign. Notice that his remarks have been ignored by the MSM.
