If a number of pundits are right, the focus of the current Administration and Congress will now turn back to illegal immigration.
What, if anything, should we do to stop people from entering the United States illegally?
What, if anything, should we do about those who are already here?
What, if anything, should be required of those who make it possible for illegals to be here?
What, if any, penalties or consequences should be imposed on those who:
a) come here illegally?
b) give comfort and/or emergency services to those who are here illegally?
c) give jobs to those who are here illegally?
The CEO's should get 20 years in a Mexican Prison. And if those CEO's are in Saudi Arabia, as was the case in a roundup here, we should have the CIA kidnap them and send them somewhere to be waterboarded. We did that in Italy, why not in Saudi?
Should people living in the United States illegally be provided the education benefits, health care, social security, workers compensation benefits, low income assistance, etc. that is available to U.S. citizens?
I'm hoping for some pertinent observations and concrete suggestions for how best to deal with this problem if you believe it is a problem. If you do not see a problem, please explain why you think none exists.
Well, why don't you Conservatives solve the problem. After all, in the wake of 9-11, had Bush said that we are going to lock down our southern border, do you think that any of us would have objected? Over half the illegals have come in since then. And we truly have no idea what or whom has come across that border.
No matter what you state, or what the Conservatives use for their Hatriotism, as long as the illegals can be used to prevent Unions, and create a cheaper labor force, the Consevatives will prevent any thing at all being done about it.
Why don't you give your views on what should be done, rather than just bleat about conservatives?
Thank you.
President Bush's solution and John McCain's solution and Lindsay Graham's solution re immigration were and are NOT conservative. It was their decidedly unconservative approach to illegal immigration, environmental issues, spending, and expansion of government powers that cost the GOP their majority in 2006. And if McCain and Graham continue along this vein in the current immigration debate, it could cost the GOP any chance to regain their majority in November.
