McCain must be ejected from the GOP and the Senate. This has gone too far.

There is no way that the INS, or whatver it's calling itself these days, can effectively handle the processing of 10 million-odd people in a timely manner.
The agency is hard-pressed to even cope with what it has to do right now, today. Injecting so many more people into the system overnight is not going to help.

In one sense I welcome this... let's have the liberal Republicans and RINOs and Demoncrats show themselves as the scum they are by voting for it.
If it passes, the govt will be so busy absorbing these criminals and the IRS will be so flooded with work, it will expand freedom for everyone else. And when 15 or 20 million formerly-illegals are not paying taxes on income, it will eventually lead to the destruction of the IRS.

Stabilize the workforce? Oh, I get it, we're going to stop teaching any new generation how to work hard and get ahead in the world because we're giving up an entire class of jobs...
How many of us got our start in business by washing dishes, mowing a neighbors lawn, the construction trade, etc. No one gives a care how many are used to pick grapes, but if you talk to almost any builder, they'll sometimes be honest enough to explain how thousands of construciton jobs have gone to illegals.
No; if they want to come here, apply at home. No more amnesty. Go back to your nations and apply like the honest people. Get back in line. Stop cutting ahead of those who do want to come here! And most of all, stop coming here if you don't want to be part of this country!

The only way I will accept as legal is to return them from whence they came.

"They would have to pay $2,000 in fines and processing fees for having entered the country illegally. After six years, these workers and their families could apply for permanent residency."
hmmm, a rather cheap price for citizen. Now we know we are worth only $2,000. Perhaps that's all the taxes we should pay.

The irony is--the advantage of hiring illegals is that they are illegal and operate in a black market of labor. This depresses wages and benefits--the employer is in the driver's seat as long as the law goes unenforced. The illegals are pliant and not likely to stand up for their rights.
Once they do have rights, the employers are going to want a fresh crop of illegals.

Impeachment and recall of many of the elected in Washington would be in order [since tar and feather recommendations get pulled by the moderators].

AMNESTY FOR THE 10 MILLION HERE JUST MAKES IT HARDER TO DEAL WITH THE NEXT 10 MILLION WHO WILL COME BY THE END OF THE YEAR TO GET THE GOODIES AND GET IN ON THE NEXT AMNESTY!!!
Guys, the illegals here are incidental to the main problem: WE MUST REGAIN CONTROL OF THE BORDER!!

Did I miss something? After a bunch of sensical approaches to the illegal alien problem, I could not find anything saying that they will deport anyone? Why can't Americans also have a protection saying that these people cannot vote until they are permanent citizens?
