These are college students. Why don’t they take their US taxpayer funded educations back to wherever ‘home’ is and change that country? Mexico, for instance, is rich in natural resources, so its Third World status can be due only to the way it’s been run historically. Change that!

We are told there are some 12-20 million illegals in the US now. Billions of dollars are sent back to other countries every year, so they obviously are doing ok. I don’t understand why they don’t try to make more countries like the one they (illegally) benefited from, instead of trying to change that country.

” Get out of my country, parasites.
Leave now, and you can live.

How’s that for a compromise? “

Put the college students in the bean fields, and deport the illegals

Illegal immigrant students say they will push for access to financial aid and drivers' licenses in states like California.

They can get all the financial aid and drivers' licenses they want if they will JUST GO BACK where they came from. Or enter our country legally and go through the established processes. If they're here illegally, they should get NOTHING but a ticket back to where they came from.

The "youths" offered amnesty in the bill could be up to 35 years old.

See: "Obama Pushes DREAM Act Immigration Reform for Lame-Duck Congress"

"The DREAM Act would apply to immigrants younger than 36 years old who arrived in the U.S. illegally as children under the supervision of their parents and have maintained "good moral character," among other requirements.

I have two words for these illegal immigrants, and they are not Happy Birthday. Let them come to my neighborhood. They will get the bum’s rush.

It was prevented from moving to a vote.

You are exactly right, it was not the GOP alone that prevented the bill from going forward. Five RATS also opposed cloture.
