Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-NY, and Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC, are believed to be on the cusp of introducing a new bill in the Senate on Comprehensive immigration reform.

The Schumer/Graham initiative combines enforcement with earned legal status for immigrants who are out of status or came in illegally.

Washington sources say they are ready to introduce the bill "any day now."

Note how they overstate the uninsured and vastly understate the illegal immigrants.

10.6 million my ass.

These clowns are going to instigate another Civil War in this country. Calling the Tea Parties racist for opposing this ain’t going to work.

Unemployment at 10% and the Democrats plus Graham want to add 10,000,000 people to the job competition.

This is why everyone has to forget republican vs democrat & start thinking conservative vs “progressive”. Whether they have an R or D after their name is becoming immaterial.

Now remember kiddies, it's NOT AMNESTY, it's 'legalization'... so it's just dandy! Same result...20 million democrat voting foreigners get to stay...but it's NOT amnesty.

* May 29, 2003 interview: McCain: “Amnesty has to be an important part because there are people who have lived in this country for 20, 30 or 40 years, who have raised children here and pay taxes here and are not citizens.“

* Dec. 15, 2000 press release: McCain: ”I support the Latino and Immigrant Fairness Act (LIFA). Negotiations between the White House and the leadership, which endorsed more limited immigration reform, have resulted in a compromise.... this bill makes meaningful but insufficient progress on amnesty for those wrongly denied it.“

You can’t fix everything. Let Schumer be Schumer. If that’s what the people want, then that’s what they’ll get. But at least he’s honest about who he is. The only question is whether the people want who he is.

Miss Graham is just acting in the stead of McQueeg, who is unable to participate in all of the immigration fun and frolic because he has to pretend he's a ‘conservative’ before the AZ primary.

Here come the votes for those who promise to take from those who earn it and give it to those who don’t.

Why in God’s name is Lindsey Graham doing this when republicans may have the majority in a few months, certainly democrats will be weakened.

The Republicans in the House and Senate should refuse Graham outright on this issue and leave him out there twisting in the wind with his dem friends.

I hope Graham someday finds himself in the same position that Charlie Crist is now in (I'm talking about being beaten down by a true conservative challenger...nothin' else even though it's probably true).

...earned legal status for immigrants who are out of status or came in illegally.

It's amnesty.

It encourages more illegals.

Immigration reform legislation is "dead" in the Senate this year, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Thursday. (3/25/10)

Lying Sack O' Feces.
