"It is not right to let families be victimized by, if you will pardon the expression, bureaucratic indifference or incompetence," Armey said. "That is not right and we don't believe that is the way it should be."

ah sheesh.... that warm and fuzzy feely thing again...
The immigration portion of the bill would extend a deadline for giving **hundreds of thousands** of illegal immigrants the chance to apply for residency without leaving the United States. Many of those immigrants are here on work visas that have expired, but they did not leave the country, officials said. **WHO is going to TRACK these people?
A reinstated program would only apply to illegal immigrants who can prove they are spouses or relatives of U.S. citizens, legal residents or employees sponsored by employers before Aug. 14. Question: How much time will they be given to provide proof? Answer: enough time to blend in, disappear, and contaminate our water supply.

The "undocumented" aka illegal immigrants don't have any proof, they either get paid in cash or are using false Social Security numbers and other false identification. Their "proof" of anything now would be extremely questionable. They didn't care about legal status when they chose to come illegally ---I don't understand the big effort to offer it to them on a silver platter now----why not treat them like other immigrants and expect them to follow the rules?

That's exactly right. The INS has ZERO credibility in monitoring, tracking, and controlling immigration as we were again reminded of yesterday. Only the naive could think that the INS is going to be suddenly competent in processing green cards for this horde of illegal aliens many of which are quite experienced in gaming our system. This is especially true with Ziglar at he helm. The long-term track record of the INS is one of abject failure.
