[Mini-14]

This is definately a political land mine and the Republicans had better get their game plan together. This issue has the power to sway public opinion more than any other. This about middle America's pocket book now and the threat of losing a job to offshoring will make everyone question their job security.

I am a Republican who will not be voting for ANY Republican in 2004. My own Congressman Mark Kirk of Illinois sent me a letter claiming that H-1Bs and L-1s are necessary because there is a "shortage" of workers in the U.S.

And may I ask, whom will you be voting for?

Don't be afraid to say, we can talk about your choices in a reasonable discussion.

Of course there is not a shortage of IT workers in the U.S. So why does Congressman Kirk say there is? I can't believe the guy is so clueless as to actually believe there's a shortage of IT workers in the U.S. What's in it for him?
