Do you share those same values? A couple of points need to be clarified. First, President Bush has signed a law prohibiting an illegal immigrant from receiving benefits due to his/her unauthorized status in the U.S. No illegal is dipping into the public coffers
Second, guest worker proposals, such as President Bushs plan, are not amnesty programs. Under Mr. Bush's proposal, illegal aliens will not be granted automatic and immediate legal status. They would only be eligible to receive a temporary worker permit, and the ability to apply later on for permanent legal status, where they will not get to cut in line in front of existing applicants. There is no guarantee that they would ever obtain permanent legal status in the U.S.
There are 12 millon illegals in America. They are not going away, they are a vital part of our economy. We had best figure out a way to "regularize" their status, and I think President Bush;'s propsal is very enlightened.
Poltically speaking, this is a good move. It will ensure that Hispanics will vote Republican. The Dems, who are acting like knuckle dragging nativists on this issue, are alienating Hispanic Americans.

You of course contradict yourself as does the president. How many of those 12mil (low estimate) would not be granted permanent residency and/or deported? You yourself recognize they arent going anywhere. Thus, AMNESTY. Nice try koolaid drinker.

Bwahahahahahahaha! Are you a lunatic, or a bald faced liar? No illegal is dipping into the public coffers? Are you on drugs? Or a Bush administration stoodge?
"Second, guest worker proposals, such as President Bushs plan, are not amnesty programs."
Hooohahahahaha!!! There's a point where statements are so absurd that it isn't even worth the spittle to rebut them.
