Exactly. And no bill is much worse than a compromise bill.
You think a "compromise bill" that includes a guest worker provision which includes illegal aliens as eligible for guest worker permits is a compromise. It is not. It is a sellout of all those who have gone through the long legal process, proof that Americans who were against the 1986 amnesty but accepted it when told that strong enforcement would come with the measures included in that bill, were lied to twice. We were told you had the tools to enforce the immigration laws then. Now you want us to believe you need new ones. We were told that would be the last amnesty. Now you want us to accept another.
No, we are done with your vision of "compromise," where Americans demand our laws be enforced, politicians promise us a half-a-loaf 'solution,' and then they deliver us nothing at all. If we wanted nothing from DC, we'd be happy with the status quo, thank you very much. There's no reason for us to be behind a "compromise bill" that gets us even more nothing.
