Where is the outrage?? Where in hell is our leadership???

I'm afraid they are all bought and paid for my friend. Stupid us for thinking that 9/11 would result in a strict enforcement of the already "lax" immigration laws in this country. This further convinces me that there we are beyond the point of controlling immigration anymore.

The notion that we have a right to say who will or won't enter the country, and from where, and who will live among us, is considered totally invalid by them.

Excellent point Reg. Whatever happened to a Government "Of the People", “By the People” and “For the People”? I believe it is time that "World" be inserted where “People” was. Who would have ever thought that things in America could get this bad? Where citizens are silenced or kept in the dark as the government allows an invasion of 3rd world peoples then hustles for their votes and PAC money. Our government has become totally corrupted from top to bottom and nothing, I mean nothing, would surprise me anymore. If America falls, it will be because of decades of government sponsored reckless immigration.

When are we going to cede the fact that Bush and the Socialist don't give a tinkers damn about the citizens of this country. They couldn't pull or push us into their utopian NWO, under the governance of the UN, so they will over run us and marginalize us into extinction.

Bump for a great post.

A totally exasperated post at that!

We are all exasperated and/or angered, shocked, depressed etc. with the ongoing insanity of our government’s reckless immigration policies. You might like this, just 5 minutes ago I got a call from the RNC asking of course for more money and I had the pleasure of telling the woman on the other end of the line that I would not support the RNC anymore as long as Bush & Co. pursue Amnesty for illegals and don't do anything about our immigration crisis. To my surprise she put up no counter argument and quickly hung up. I wonder if she has been hearing similar responses from other "former" republican contributors...Hope So.

appears that the republicans - having pretty much written off the black vote - are courting the hispanic vote with talk of amnesty , etc. for illegals from latin america

Lurching for one disaster to another is par for the course with the republicans--the eternally “stupid” party. Apparently they don't care about their conservative constituency either.

Does seem that way. The word freedom now appears to mean that the U.S. is the property of the world, and everyone on Earth is 'free' to stop in and set a spell. Maybe a long spell. The concept that 'free' mean't that we were free to make our own rules, and live within that framework seems to have been gone MIA...are we free when anyone else can come here and vote, regardless of citizenship (we all know that's happening)?.

There are going to be more of these 'aliens got clearance' stories. On another thread, a guy who didn't want to say 'how he knew' said that all the records at major airports were being gone through, and that things were going to happen. Appears he was right.

I would hope so. In July of 2001, I reported a possible pair at the Charlotte NC airport to the FAA CASFO (Civil Aviation Security Field Office). All I got from them was, 'now how do you know they was illegal aliens'? Answer: I don't. But when I guy is standing there in a uniform with a SIDA clearance badge, and he can't speak English, I know something's up. His buddy was translating for him. The FedPerson mumbled something about "we'll look into it" and hung up. Three months later when I called them back (oh, about sep. 15), they were all ears. Kinda late....

You got it Reg. American citizenship means little today aside from specifying that broad group of people that have to follow whatever laws or regulations our masters in government hand down--or else. Illegals like you said can vote in our elections, they get whatever kind of welfare and subsidies they demand, they can break one law after another and pay no penalty and oh, you can't deport them either. The Americans of this land should have such a deal.

My only confusion is why they are still referred to as illegal aliens? Opps my mistake, they are now "undocumented migrants that are in the process of regularization" per Bush Administration. Gee, I wonder when illegals from Middle East countries get this deal. We can’t exclude them from regularization because to exclude is to not be multicultural.

What does it take to get these people who have "over stayed" their visa's to be rounded up and sent packing?????

All it takes is for Bush to say the word. But he won't!!

Another thing is these plea bargains. In many cases, people are getting off the hook with a fraction of the punishment they deserve. That needs to be stopped.

Good for you. I wish they would call me so I could tell them the same thing. I have already said that will not contribute one dollar or donate one minute of my time for Bush in 2004 unless he changes his immigration policy.

If he is more interested in their pesos than my dollars, he can have them.
