I wouldn't be so opposed to this if I thought that the mass illegal immigration was going to be stopped, or at least seriously curtailed. With no real efforts at border security, much less shutting the border down like it should be, this is only going to increase the waves of illegals sweeping into our country.

Borders. Language. Culture.

There is talk that eventually an compromise will be worked out that will in fact close the border in exchange for some worker program. (With worker fingerprinting I hope.) This may be the best we can hope for, as the workers do boost the social security base, which assists in the extension of that program.

Closing the border is essential for terror security, and identification of all our illegals will allow them to be kept away from the voting booth. But I agree it is a sad commentary on how far from our borders, language, and culture we have come. BTW I am Paul Revere Society too.
