U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein said Monday she is increasingly willing to consider a guest worker program as a way of curbing unregulated immigration into the United States. But, she added, ``I'm not entirely there yet'' in finding a specific proposal to support.
After a wide-ranging luncheon speech to the Silicon Valley Leadership Group in San Jose, the veteran Democrat said her main concern was that the program not ``become a magnet'' that would attract undocumented immigrants who would not return to their home country.
Guest worker programs usually permit workers into the U.S. only for a limited time.
On another immigration issue, Feinstein allied herself with Silicon Valley companies in supporting an increase in the number of H1-B visas, which permit companies to bring highly skilled immigrants from overseas to work in the United States.

Feinstein concluded her speech with a warning that ``the clock is ticking on global warming.'' She said she will be introducing legislation to cap emissions at current levels, and then to begin reducing them in 2011.

I hope Feinswine doesn't hurt herself sitting on that fence.
Diane, you are a worthless POS who is constantly sticking your greasy finger in the air to test the political winds. You serve the lobbyists.
Who are the people who can never make a decision, never act in time, always wait until the water is up to the gunwales and the boat is sinking before they act or decide?
1.)Islamofascism is at war with Western civilization and America. They want us dead ASAP.
2.) The left, the Democrats are at war with George Bush and America. They want control of the country and are incapable and undesireous of defending us from the Islamofascists.
They are one and the same. The left and the Islamofascists, no difference. The world is split right in half between reality and pragmatism and treasonous fantasy.
And her position differs from Bush and the RINO's - How?
translated roughly...as i haven't quite yet figured how to raise campaign cash from multi-national corporations while shutting down the borders...but my constituents are starting to squeal hard.
Watch the Senate will "declare victory" and surrender to the illegal immigrants. In the end it won't be reform--only amnesty, with the vague promise of tougher measures in the future. the MSM will breathlessly hail it as a great leap forward (except for Lou Dobbs on CNN--one of the few who hasn't sold out on this issue). I am so mad at these people, I can just spit.
