>>The criminal invaders are going to ‘evict’ themselves when we enforce the laws on the employers that hire them.<<

That’s a totally different subject. Either way, this country is not going to do anything that disrupts second and third generation families. There will be many who self deport but those who have established themselves here for generations will be given some sort of legal path. Regardless of how each of us feels you can bet on it.

“...... what is the code word for “legitimate worker program”? “

Thank you. I get it. I jumped the shark and gave serious thought to something I should have ignored. Won’t happen again, unless I am this tired.

There is no such thing as a perfect system
to handle the current problem.
Newt’s system is fairly reasonable, while he will also
strengthen it with new systems to block future problems.

Newt is Pro-Amnesty. It may not be practical to deport 11 million people, but that shouldn’t be our going in (stated) position. Reagan took the same position 25-years back and we see where it got us.

Alabama is in a mess.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Four months ago Alabama passed the toughest immigration enforcement law in the nation. The left-wing has been doing everything to keep the bill tied up in the courts. However, even before going into effect, the bill is working.

Six weeks ago USAToday said that illegal aliens were packing up and leaving Alabama. USAToday actually reported this as if it was a bad thing.

Now there is more good news for Alabama. Unemployment has dropped significantly. In October, the unemployment rate went from 9.8 to 9.3. This .5% drop is five times larger than the drop in the national average. Counties most known for illegal aliens saw the biggest drop. Marshall County, known for illegal aliens working at the chicken processing plants, saw unemployment drop .7% in October.

Just the knowledge that Alabama intends to enforce immigration law in the future has sent illegal aliens packing.

If they rise up, they identify themselves. Makes deportation easier.

The Obama EPA has been after TX refineries among other things. Why Perry hates BO.

make it impossible for them or their kids to ... go to a school, go to a hospital, buy a car, buy a house, rent an appartment, ect...and they will deport themselves, problem solved.

Only if done on a national scale, otherwise they simply move from state to state. And if that's done on a national scale do you really think 30 million people will simply submit to such without rising up in mass demonstrations?

Heck the governors and mayors couldn't handle the OWS protestors....a piece of cake by comparison if we start mass deportations. It would get worse than ugly and the politicians know this and why they will not ever agree to deporting them....or "make them uncomfortable enough to just leave"

Well, let's see, how many Spanish speaking citizens are there in the US of A? What percentage used to vote as moderates or conservatives before your advocated war on Hispanic families? ... You don't strike me as very conservative advocating such cruelty that cannot differentiate productive, God-fearing, family supporting community members from criminals who rape and murder. Are you aware that only a very very small percentage of Hispanics not in the US legally are committing the crimes associated to Hispanics statistically?
