Did anybody tell you that the employee verification will take 5 years to implement?
Ask your friends in Greasy Colorado how pleasant life is? We have had a belly full of your illegal entry into our territory, Vaya Casa. I mean really!!!
"Your love of President Bush is seriously eroding your judgement."
There's a long, long difference between love and adoration. The Raving Nutcake holds Bush higher than Muslims hold Mohammed.
That's right. Your bottom better get across the line if your not a citizen.
Whatever you do, don't go beserko over the illegals, you might end up in jail. For a long time.
House bill funds Guard border duty (AZ Gets IT)

Oh come now. What's a couple of billion? That's how much a border fence would cost. $2 billion ain't nothing. A water droplet in the Pacific.
And it would not be "useless." A strong border fence with round-the-clock surveillance would decrease illegal immigration by over 90%.
Key among these is strong enforcement actions on businesses who hire them (knowlingly OR unknowingly). The owners of said businesses should face stiff fines AND prison time.
You have to look at the root of the problem. Why are businesses paying illegals under the table? Blame the tax code. Blame the suffocating cost of doing business in America. Running a business is a nightmare now. Although I disagree with what these businesses are doing, I empathize with their predicament.
To where? Will illegals raft through the Gulf of Mexico and come ashore or what?
Mexico should be rolling in prosperity. They got a wonderful climate, oil, and natural resources up the wazoo. Plus their citizens are hard-working and family-oriented. All they need is a good dose of capitalism from an uncorruptable leader who's willing to roll up his/her sleeves and get the job done.
At the President's request.
Those measures are like installing one or two termite modules around a six acre lot. We don't see exterminators indulging in such purposely weak foolishness and crying "We did our best!" after the structures fall down.
By the way, if your septic tank is clogged I've got a line on a ferocious all-natural remedy: a mammalian species that finds no excrement too dense or filthy to be navigated. Handy for that one talent, Demorino Publictraitoris has the unfortunate tendency to spread mental disease and other maladies until the surrounding environment is rendered uninhabitable by cognizant wage-earners. These vile creatures must be handled by qualified technicians who can shut out the auditory stimuli they emit whenever one or more humans congregate without protection or prior experience. Symptoms of exposure may include dizziness, darkening of visual perception and lightness of wallet. Should you or anyone you know suffer from any of these symptoms re-read the Constitution and withhold enabling contributions to the disease immediately.
And you know the President is charged with our defense. If he's too compromised (corrupt) to do so we need one who will discharge that duty without hesitation. Hayworth, Tancredo, Ginry or 70 others would do better - and would do it without sucking up to the Clintons and Kennedys (which is totally inexcusable).
Of course, Bush bashers don't want to address that fact either.
So like the enemies of freedom who freely apply labels like "racist" to those who disagree with their view. Not that I haven't called communist and socialist tools just that when trying to shove "political correctness" down my throat. I just see referring to people as "Bush Bashers" as if the man is beyond criticism or somehow (heaven help us) above the laws we commoners knuckle under is dangerously close to putting a personality above the government. Our government. It's ours in word if not in action and present reality.
Reaganwuzthebest: Tell that to Bush. He's just proposed $247 million dollars in the budget for a new massive guest worker/amnesty program so apparently he's anticipating something you believe is a dead horse.

My email from FAIR:
FROM THE DESK OF THE PRESIDENT RE: President's Budget Spends More for Guest Workers than Worksite Enforcement
Yesterday the Bush Administration issued its budget request for the upcoming fiscal year that will begin on October 1. In it he has asked Congress to approve $247 million to implement a guest worker amnesty program that is strongly opposed by many members of Congress. This represents nearly $100 million more than he proposed for worksite enforcement and expansion of the voluntary worker verification system combined.
For the border patrol, who work to secure our porous borders, the President asked for funding to support only 1,500 new border patrol agents in the fiscal year that begins next October. While this sounds significant, this number is 500 border patrol agents less than authorized in the intelligence overhaul legislation enacted into law well over a year ago and for the two fiscal years covered since enactment of that law it is a Border Patrol shortfall of 1,000 officers.
You and I know that over the last few months the President has made a point of calling for tougher actions to control our borders and enforce laws against illegal immigration. I'm sure you have doubted the President's sincerity just as I have, fearing that the new tough talk would disappear once he got his guest worker amnesty program through the Congress. Well we were wrong. The President has not waited for Congressional approval before putting on full display his real intentions to put enforcement in the back seat and his more passionate desire for a guest worker amnesty proposal behind the wheel. You and I get run over by the bus.
How Congress will respond to this budget remains to be seen. The House is already on record passing tough enforcement legislation without any guest worker program while the Senate will begin work on its version in early March. At this point the Senate is expected to be far more receptive to the President's proposals than the House.
We intend to do everything we can here in Washington, D.C. to prevent passage of a guest worker amnesty program of any description. We need your full and active participation to convince Congress that amnesty has been tried and failed in the past and that an open-ended guest worker program will drive another stake in the heart of American middle and lower income workers.
Dan Stein
President

It's gut time and every call, fax or letter will make a dent. I, for one, would rather be able to look back and be able to say I made an effort rather than look stupid when the younger people ask what did I do to help prevent catastrophe. Five minutes of your time may sway history. - NRT
I heard Hayworth on the Hugh Hewitt show.
I thought did very well.
Hewitt on the other hand is a complete RINO on the issue of illegal immigration. He actually implied anyone who didn't like illegal immigration was a "Nativist". NO doubt Hugh will be soon be calling people "Racists" if the issue heats up.
Sorry, but I disagree. The only thing that will stop them from coming here is to make it impossible for them to earn a living, and to make it highly likely that they will be caught and deported if the do manage to find a job in the "underground economy". THEN they'll stay home.
For a short while. Then new modes of "coyoteing" would be developed, and the level would be back up.
No. The ONLY thing that will deter them is to make if extremely difficult to make a living, and to increase the probability that they will be found and deported.
The "fence" is a fake panacea.
"You have to look at the root of the problem. Why are businesses paying illegals under the table? Blame the tax code. Blame the suffocating cost of doing business in America. Running a business is a nightmare now. Although I disagree with what these businesses are doing, I empathize with their predicament."
Bullshit. MOST businesses succeed without hiring illegal immmigrants. The ONLY reason businesses do so is pure greed, which is why the penalties should be raised to the point that any possible profit will "disappear" if the business is found to be hiring illegals.
Some of them (though not rafts). "Coyotes" will simply shift from trucks and vans to boats. A lot if them will simply fly to Canada and cross the northern border (if they are paying coyotes hundreds and in some cases thousands of dollars, they can certainly afford a plane ticket to Canada).
NEVER underestimate human ingenuity.
Exactly.
Some businessmen are addicted to brown serfs. These men need to be punished.
Do you have a fence in your back yard?
Of course.
I believe a fence is a valuable component in border enforcement.
But getting one erected would be little more than a symbolic gesture if the demand for illegal scab labor is not addressed.
Ditto!
You reckon' ol' V. Fox has pictures of Bush with a ugly goat "Doing the job Americans won't do."?
