I don't want to see immigration "reform"; I want to see illegal aliens deported and employers punished as per the law of the land.
It won't happen because Democrats covet the Hispanic vote, and Republicans covet big business that benefits from illegal alien slave wage labor.
All of which would go away with immigration reform, currently being blocked by Repubs. Not particularly shocking.
You can only pass so much legislation in a 2 year period, and sorry but healthcare and financial regulatory reform are pretty important.

You dont know how to solve problems in America.
Thats pretty much how I see it.
I finally accepted the fact they are coming in and no one is going to stop them, and they will be taking over in a generation or two.
I might piss and moan about it every so often, because theres no law saying I have to like it. But I learned to think more like "how do I deal with this knowing for certain it will happen" rather than "how do I fight this"?
Never claimed that illegal aliens should have those rights alll I did was question the credibility of Fux noise.
If capitulation, submission and fear are the methods you believe in then you are right, I dont know how to solve problems in America.
ahahahahahahaha...breathe...ahahahahaahahahaha...that's your excuse? You know how much shit gets passed each year?
The "real" border is now the Mid west and the East, the SW states are pretty much over run already by illegals and many parts would have you swearing you were in Mexico and not the US. And not surprisingly, the illegals are streaming East now since the West has turned to poo in most places [just like Mexico]. Once the whole country turns to poo I guess Canada is next ?? Hope their border patrol is better than ours.
It's common sense. "Amnesty" in the form of (small) fines and testing on basic knowledge of U.S. history should be perfectly acceptable to most. This notion that we can seal the border immediately is nonsense, it can't be done enough to satisfy conservatives because immigrants can always get in if they're really determined. We're always going to have illegals, that's just a fact of life. And I'm sorry, but it's not an epidemic if they get into the country, they do more good than harm and that's just a reality nativists are going to have to live with. The obsession with illegals has nothing to do with being here illegally to many conservatives and everything to do with them being "foreign", "different" and "un-American". That's really the crux of it.
