Any State that actively stands in the way of federal law should lose funding.

Agree, and I would say that is the LEAST that should be done. States cannot go around willy nilly defying Immigration Laws, which are in the purview of the Federal Government.

I am going to try to stay optimistic. I am encouraged that federal immigration agents are blasting the plan. And from reports I have read, Bush is now going to address this crisis in the right way, IMO, by fining employers heavily. I am not necessarily against a border fence, but I think if we make it extremely difficult for an illegal to get a job, financially risky for a business to knowingly employ one, and illegal to provide taxpayer funded services (like K-12 education), the problem would be greatly reduced.

Bush wants to change the sheeple thoughts on Comprehensive Reform by showing them the results with crying kids on TV with mom and dad being deported.

Enough of that and the sheeple will let them stay.

Actually it should be invaded, its government overthrown and its officials arrested, and martial law imposed until a new, more responsible government is elected.
Hell, it worked in the South, right?

I agree. A huge part of the solution is cutting off their access to resources and services in this country. Its like cleaning up your kitchen to solve a roach problem.

The problem with fining the employers is that they Illegal ladies can have a child and then the entire family stays on welfare benefits-Job or no Job.
