chavez hated open immigration becasue he knew it would submarine wages, if there is an expanding flow of labor, what happens? supply is plenitful, employers can go lower due to the larger supply......
remember- all the dems need to do is get them legalized, the rest will flow in short order, once thats done citizenship will come via the usual media/dem angst machine, they are here, they are working, the evil gop is denying them their 'rights', what more do we want, we'll be treated to examples of little pepe's dad who cannot vote even though hes a productive member of society etc etc etc etc ....
and its gonna happen.....sad but trrue, submarine wages? unemployment rates? doesn't matter, theres votes in dem der hills.....
Oh and that 11 million? BULLSHIT, plain and simple, like the 45 million sympathy number the dems used in the run up to the obamacare bill, then the drop to 18 million this will work in reverse, it will balloon and they all deserve everything folks who came here legally have etc etc ...and if you don't say yes, you're a hater.....the emotional squeeze box.
and the new enforcement amendments they announced? they cannot even tell us how they will pay for the fence OR the agents they say they will add, they said they will take if from deficit reduction
yup, the sequester had them in apoplexy but they will cut to make up the $20-30 Billion, we need for this? in a pigs eye and its the same pig in the poke, legalize first - fence, enforcement last and we promise we won't screw you like we did in 86 or 07........checks in the mail

...........please.
