There they go again! As reported on the Lou Dobbs' program tonight, the Feinstein amendment to the military appropriations bill would give AMNESTY to three million illegal immigrant farm workers in the United States. This amendment was added in the "dark of night" and is an example of the new strategy of the open-borders amnesty lobby. That plan is to advance the amnesty agenda piecemeal, incrementally, and beneath the radar of public perception.

With liberal Democrats in control of Congress it appears to be working.

You're welcome. I've had that number since last summer when Congress critters twice tried to shove amnesty for illegals down our throats.
