In other words Bill, you lied, you got busted, and now you're filibustering to hide your lie, and throw everyone off the scent.

Your headline read that Bush was pushing for benefits for illegals.

Your headline was a lie.

I lied? Nice try moron. You, Bush and your buddies are leading America over the cliff. Why don't you go over to DU? Socialists are welcome there with open arms. I've noticed you're real dense with connecting dots.

Another Immigration Loophole: 245(i)
The legal aliens are an even bigger problem. All 19 hijackers on 9/11 entered the United States legally on government-issued visas, several of whom illegally overstayed their allotted time.

Now we hear there is another way aliens are able to remain in our country. They sneak over our borders illegally, or illegally overstay their visas, and then become legal by exploiting a now-expired loophole known as 245(i), the section in a 1994 federal law that allows an illegal alien to apply for a green card, stay permanently in the United States, and subsequently apply for citizenship.

This amnesty loophole allowed aliens who broke our laws to pay a $1,000 fine and go to the head of the line in front of prospective immigrants who complied with our laws. U.S. law states that aliens must apply in their own countries to get permission to immigrate to the United States.

A million of these loophole aliens have become legal residents since the law was passed. In 2000, these loophole aliens were 28.3 percent of new legal residents, in 1999 they were 25.4 percent, and in 1998 they were 29.4 percent."

"I told the Congress that I want to make sure that the Mexican citizen here is well-respected, and one way to do that is to pass 245I."
