Republican presidential nominee John McCain said Friday that Georgia will be a competitive state in the race for the presidency and he vowed to return and fight for every vote.....

It doesn't say a thing about getting rid of illegals here or of fining those who employ the illegals, but it is finally a more rational view from him.
What the heck is wrong with that? I swear, some of you people won't be happy until every Mexican is dead.
Woe unto him that buildeth his house by unrighteousness, and his chambers by wrong; that useth his neighbour's service without wages, and giveth him not for his work (Jeremiah 22:13)
The whole “temporary worker” issue may be (temporarily) settled by the housing slowdown and the shrinking of the work force.
Without construction taking place, a formerly big job market for illegals is going to be a lot smaller.
And perhaps the unemployed will realize that those other “jobs that Americans don’t want to do” aren’t so bad after all.
the problem is, Mccain never uses the word “fence” or “wall” He only talks about “securing the borders”
If you can’t even say the word, how can you expect him to do the do?
“Temporary workers” implies that they will go home when the “temporary” work is over.
But McCain says that it is impossible to send these workers home.
Duh.
Bottom line, for those who understand immigration law, is that there already is provision in the current law for all the temporary workers we need. Go here to see how much legal immigration is allowed. http://www.numbersusa.com/PDFs/Immigration%20Organization%20Chart%2001-07.pdf
Pay particular attention to the unskilled worker category.
There also exists in current law every necessary remedy for the illegal alien invasion. No new legislation is required. Just enforce existing law.
We already have a temporary worker program. What McCain really means is amnesty.
“It is an emotional issue with America,” McCain continued.
Good thing John has the easygoing patience and mild temperment that will be required to deal with this emotional issue!
(AP: NEW MEASURES PROPOSED BY DHS “If we tattoo bar codes on Americans’ wrists, then we can scan them like groceries. Agricultural and service industry workers will be exempt, due to their value and because Mexico won’t stand for it.” The Department of Homeland Security; “Some nativist terrorists and bigots oppose this latest reasonable proposal to make us all safer and more secure. I have authorized the national guards to hunt them down like dogs.” President Juan McCain, April 2009.)
Ever wonder why Mexican presidential candidates always make a campaign swing through major American cities? Because 10% of Mexico is currently in los Estados Unidos, that’s why.
What are you going to do if the dems take the presidency and expand their control of the Senate to a 57-43 margin.
If that happens, the dems will abandon the AgJobs compromise and the McCain-Kennedy compromise. The dems will be pushing for more permanent visas and fewer temporary visas.
Using the word “Fence” in front of Mccain is like using “Hussein” in front of Obama
The only hope (not certainty) that amnesty will be stopped is with Hill-bama and a Republican congress that will fight back. With McCain, he will propose amnesty and Republicans will not be allowed to go against their own guy.
We already have a temporary worker program.
“If there’s one thing I’ve learned about the motivations of politicians - it’s self-interest and power. With Mccain as POTUS R’s will fallinto line behind Mccain no matter what he proposes. With HillObama R’s will attack her no matter what.”
Amen.
We already have a temporary worker program.
It still stinks like the old load of crap.
The trouble is, whether McCain, Obama or Clinton, they all are going to be pushing for amnesty for illegals, just like their predecessor has.
We already have a temporary worker program.
