LOL...I don't think it really would be a good idea...because I have a feeling I would beat Harry Reid to a pulp before the first week is over...

Kennedy up talking about what the illegals will have to do to get green card..

Does anyone here believe this stuff will get done?, especially if they are allowed to stay here...not be sent back home??

Just like you said to def...the employers will NOT be checked anymore than they are now.

This whole thing is a bunch of hooey.

Not too much

There was a lot of sharing of immigration stories .. though the Dems refuse to call them illegals

McCain is worried about illegals crossing the border without any water

Mary Landrieu somehow manage to compare Hurricane Katrina with the illegal problem with her and Kerry's small business bill

Alexander had an amendment to help pay for classes so that immigrants can learn English

Inhofe had an amendment to make English the official language of the USA

Kyle & Cornyn had an amendment .. but I'm not sure what is was about (was outside with my youngest) .. but it was something about criminal illegals

I just saw a story on Brit's show about Cynthia McKinney's little scuffle yesterday with Capital Hill guard.

They said she is having a press conference tomorrow morning with her LAWYER...LOL

I co-owned a business in DC, many years ago. We had immigrants working for us. The rules were very lax! I paid my people the going rate. I was not educated in the law. I was not trying to get around the law, I simply did not know it. The immigrants would show up and actually work. The Americans track record was not the same. So! We have a problem. Had I known what I was doing was possibly against the law I would not have done it. I am sure most of these employers don't know what they are doing, if they don't educate them then enforce it.

Because they've established whole neighborhoods and cities unto themselves. Next week, I'm moving up to Ocala, FL which is way different from Miami and I'm glad of it.

But the NE and Midwest was like that 50 years ago and eventually everyone assimilated. I grew up in ethnic neighborhoods.

We're the fourth largest city in the nation and our city is run by Hispanics. There used to be assimilation here before they became majority. Blacks, Asians, Whites are now one-third population.

There you go, Senator Sessions. Just because you authorize something, that doesn't mean it's going to happen.

What is wrong with McCain

All that occurred to me was that he had taken his meds.

BIDEN alert on Hairball...

BTW....I have a question: Why does C-span show Nancy Pelosi's press conferences every time she gives one...and they show Harry Reid's...

But, I can't remember when I have seen one by Frist or Boehner and Delay before that....

Is my timing bad...or what?

I hope we have it on tape. He does not have the stamina to be President.
