Does anyone else see the maddness of this?
This Congress will completely bankrupt this nation! Reagan must be turning in his grave. What a disaster.
savage said yesterday the immigration bill would triple the amount of illegals, hard to believe, yet easy to believe.
past time to throught the bums out. recall all of 'em, they should all be brought up on charges for failing to uphold their oath to the constitution
Lots of us do. Unfortunately there are those who will profit from it, so they tell us this is nonsense. We know better.

Ask the White House and our President. And while you're at it, just double check and ask whether they're conservative... I must be confused.
Government loves nothing more than to increase the dependency of the people on government...the more helpless people government can help to import, the better
There is a Stephen King short story called "The Ten O'Clock People". It's about smokers whose office until recently was a "smoking" office and they had a steady stream of nicotine in their systems all day. Suddenly, they can only smoke at 10 a.m., for 15 minutes, outside their building on the sidewalk. This sudden spike in their circulating nicotine, coupled with a minimal but perfectly timed "residual" level of nicotine in their systems, gives them the ability to see that about half the people in their building, on the street, in the city, probably on Earth, are actually not people at all, but aliens. Something about the perfect blood levels of nicotine fights off the "cloaking device" that otherwise makes the aliens appear like normal people.
Sometimes, I feel like a Ten O'clock Person.
BUMP!
The worst part is that these guys/gals have ZERO concern for what the voters thing because they know that they can raise money from unions, PACs and Corporations.
I still say a constitutional amendment banning contributions from anyone but registered voters in the district of the elected official is what we need. It might be painful at first, but it would fix the problem longterm.
Of course, it will never happen because the powers that be would never allow it.
Even here in Michigan I can't go shopping without meeting groups of 8 to 12 spanish speaking males all shopping with food stamps.
That's the scary thing about the senate bill. It will bring in tons of people at the bottom of the economic ladder. Becausue these are low wage earners (the ones that work), they will pay very little, if anything in federal taxes, and will ultimately take more out of the government coffers than they contribute. They will also drive down wages for Americans in the same socio-economic demographic which will lead to even less taxes being paid by Americans. The government gets reduced contributions and greater liabilities. It's a stupid immigration bill.
Thanks...because I'm getting a beating in another thread somewhat related to this ... and I'm feeling a bit like a "10 o'clock person".
I live in metro Atlanta, I SEE WITH MY OWN EYES the fact that the latino girls are pregnant. There was a girl in my son's middle school that had a baby. No matter where you go, if there is a group spanish people shopping, 99.99% of the time at least one of them is pregnant. I saw the other day, a pregnant spanish lady pushing a stroller, she had 4 other children walking with her, one of the little girls was about 10 and she was pushing another stroller with a baby in it. The first thing that popped into my mind was "anchor babies", keep em coming.
