I don’t disagree with your assessment. Your solution is essentially the same as mine. We must make those in the Beltway grasp the concept that any legislation that allows amnesty will be legislation that ensures they will not be re-elected. We must make them see that reducing the carrot bringing illegals into this country - employment - isn’t available anymore. I recalled a phone call on Limbaugh’s Shopw discussing how a local community managed to do exactly that...something about a local tv station exposing a local employer for employing a bunch of illegals.

Nor do I disagree with yours. It's just that in this day and age, the way things work, it may not be possible to mount an entirely effective grassroots effort. Especially considering the fact that the very process of voting has been corrupted and subverted by the very people we need to expel from positions of power. Their efforts have been methodical and very well planned and executed.
Though we may be able to get these mental midgets to grasp the concept that supporting legislation such as this is a danger to their jobs, we may not be able to do anything about it.
Jerking their ticket and tossing them from the Gravy Train may need to be done in some other fashion.

...something about a local tv station exposing a local employer for employing a bunch of illegals.

For the record, the monies I speak of do not come from small potatoes employers in small towns around the country. I am referring to Cargill, Tyson, Hormel, Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), Monsanto and a host of other very large, very rich corporations that have no problem doing what is necessary to buy influence in Washington. It is a partnership made in Hell and is a very deeply ingrained part of the culture in our nation's capital. The task of breaking it is nothing short of monumental.

I agree with you that we are both on the same track but personally, I do not think that trying to get dirty politicians to turn on their masters who finance their campaigns and exorbitant lifestyles will return any satisfying result. It is a worthwhile effort to strike at these companies and their political lapdogs on the Hill but the power to excise the corruption, once exposed, must come from the other two branches of our government....or from the end of a pike.
Until that happens it will be Business As Usual.
