Long live the Queen!

If we give the current illegals amnesty, you can be sure that 20 or so years from now, there will be a clamor for another amnesty bill as the illegals will continue to pour in. For example, the Simpson-Mazzoli bill, adopted by Congress in 1986, was hailed as the last amnesty bill we would need because the borders of the U.S., then a sieve, would be better protected. However, our borders continued to be porous, and the number of illegals burgeoned, and here we are again with the illegals and their supporters seeking amnesty once more for ever larger numbers.

This should be HAMMERED HOME

There are other decent synonyms as well. Criminaliens works for me.

Ted Kennedy: 1986 Amnesty

In 1986 Senator Kennedy said, ‘This amnesty will give citizenship to only 1.1 to 1.3 million illegal aliens. We will secure the borders henceforth. We will never again bring forward another amnesty bill like this.’

Just another Lying Democrat.

“more immigrants, as many think we do to expand the workforce of our graying population”. One problem with this, the immigrants from Mexico don’t have the education, work ethics and they don’t speak English like our elders do. Our government only makes excuses because they are afraid to do what is right. Close the borders. 750,000 immigrants? There are approximately 20 million illegals now. You could close the border for over 20 years to meet the legal requirement.

Why is this guy a democrap?

RE :"Regrettably, the Arizona legislation went too far, allowing local police to ask individuals "reasonably suspected" to be illegal immigrants for identifying papers. This conjures up images of Nazis engaging in Jew catching in Germany."

Too far??? Illegals are fleeing the state in droves taking their kids with them because Democrats, MSM and RINOs are scaring the daylights out of them in Arizona, now they think they will be questioned in line at Taco Bell.

Here's another compassionate whiner that wants to backseat drive.

When Teddy died, he was still exogenously obese. I imagine all that fat has been rendered by now. ... But he still stinks.

[runninglips]

20 years ago they talked about 12-20 million illegals in America, the number is easily 35 million by now. Yes, that is a HUGE difference.

[Oldpuppymax]

Call them what they are...future welfare recipients and democrat voters.

[Kimberly GG]

Effectively secure our borders.

No amnesty of ANY kind for ANY illegal aliens.

Attrition through enforcement.

End birthright citizenships.

Problem solved.

Thank you for lifting my spirits!

No shortage of whiners ;-)

[Jeff Chandler]

Call them what they are...Undocumented Democrats.

[Frantzie]

20 years from now there will be no country if amnesty passes.

[GovernmentShrinker]

Amnesty supporters refuse to use the term illegal aliens, preferring instead undocumented aliens

No, actually they call them "undocumented workers", regardless of whether there's any evidence that they've ever done any sort "work" other than drug-dealing and gang-banging.

[ssaftler]

No, actually they call them "undocumented workers"

I like the term "Brasseros" or, better yet, "Slaves"

[ConservativeMind]

Agreed.

[I still care]

He’s liberal in many ways, but then every so often he comes out and hits very hard on a conservative issue.

He is pro Israel and anti illegal and you know what? A lot of Democrats are too. They just keep their mouths shut. That’s one of the reason the Democrats are in trouble.

Koch never ever keeps his mouth shut.
