would only apply to illegal immigrants who can prove

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?

"I don't understand the big effort to offer it to them on a silver platter now"

All this proposal will do is white-wash the fact that the INS can't handle the job before them, and buy time for them to get caught up... at the expense of risking homeland security. How they figure this proposal will make the borders more secure is beyond me.

Proof? We don need no proof! We don need no stinkin proof! After all we stole this country from them and now they are going to take it back. I hope we all get to enjoy the coming turmoil. I always wondered what it was like to live in a country where armed strife and insurrection were the norm. Guess I will get to find out. Thank you Bush and Democrat Congress. The sick part is that the Mexicans will not even vote for him but give the Dems the credit. Too funny.
