“And farmers in areas such as California’s San Joaquin Valley, which is experiencing a 20 percent labor shortfall, worry the administration’s changes will not happen soon enough for the 2008 growing season.”
And precisely how has it been established that the SJV is experiencing a 20% shortfall in labor? And we’re worried about the 2008 harvest?
And, as has already been asked, when did we secure the border, and just what actions have supposedly caused a farm labor shortage?
Jorge and his administration has zero credibility on this issue with many Americans and Republican voters. I find it impossible to believe a single thing anyone in the Jorge executive branch says about immigration.
Don’t trust, but verify.
But I doubt we have in place the means to verify all these assertions, and I know we don’t have in place in the Jorge administration any desire to be truthful on this issue.

I live in the San Joaquin Valley and believe me, we have no shortage of illegals. We are overrun by them. They may not be working in the fields but they are everywhere else, construction, fast food, etc. I called the manager at a McDonalds to the drive thru the other day and told her I wouldn’t be back because the guy working the window couldn’t speak freaking English. It seems I have to do that everywhere I go anymore.
