- Several senators who have been promised votes on their amendments, including Sens. Kit Bond, R-Mo., Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., Norm Coleman, R-Mo., Pete Domenici, R-N.M., John Ensign, R-Nev., and Jim Webb, D-Va., switched their votes to support moving ahead with the measure.
Jim Webb wants an amendment that requires that illegals have been here at least 4 years prior to be granted amnesty. He says this one amendment will put American minds at rest about the bill.
And to think I used to like Webb. What an idiot. The 1986 amnesty required all those who applied for it to be here at least 5 years or longer Guess what? Everyone produced "proof" with fake papers showing tenancy, jobs, etc that indicated they had been here 5 years or longer. Besides that, MILLIONS more swarmed the border at the last minute with their forged residency proof already in hand, though many could not tell where in America they had lived, could not get there and many addresses were bogus or would have had to house 30 to 40 illegals.
A complete Sham. So now Webb offers us LESS than the 1986 amnesty and we will be happy? These people should at least read the 1986 amnesty and all that happened so that when they think they have come up with a winning solution, they do not sound like complete idiots. They do know how to read, don't they?

What has not been discussed in the press:
Aliens are required to register for the U.S. military draft which the administration has quietly put on the table for a post election year strategy to alleviate pressure on ground forces in our over-stretched Pentagon footprint. Those required to register for the draft fall into several categories: Permanent resident aliens; Special (seasonal) agricultural workers (Form I-688); Refugee, parolee, and asylee aliens; Undocumented (illegal) aliens; dual nationals of the U.S. and another country are required to register, regardless of where they live, because they are U.S. nationals. (Note: Lawful non-immigrants on visas (e.g., diplomatic and consular personnel and families, foreign students, tourists with unexpired visas (Forms I-94, I-95A), or those with Border Crossing Documents (Forms I-185, I-186, I-444) and Special agricultural workers (Form I-688A) do not have to register). - Reply to this comment
The year is 1907, one hundred years ago......
Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here
in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall
be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to
discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or
origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an
American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance
here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an
American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We
have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...
And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the
American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907

They don't make enough? They will after they are illegal! Some make more than you. I payed the guys at home depot 200 bucks each for one Day! Illegals are not drowning in Debt like us Americans? Credit Cards/ Car payments/ 30 year mortgages etc. Most of them pay cash in advance for hospital visits.

It's illegal to hire illegals? I can always say that I never "knew" they were illegal. It's not illegal for them to stand in front of home depot.

- We must give amnesty to millions and millions of illegal immigrants so we can recruit them into the military.
It's obvious to me.
This way we can fight many more wars for many more years to come and the militaryindustrial complex will remain happy.
