Amnesty IS going to happen. Not IF but WHEN and HOW. I would rather we do it right along with cutting off further illegals than the GOP plan of "welcome all and keep coming". Not only that but if we can get these folks citizenship in the future, that about about 12 million more Democrats to help ensure a lasting majority.

Great... Lets just allow all of the illegals, people who have come here without permission, have had no cause or concern for helping to destroy our way of living, and violated our laws. And your supporting amnesty.

When do the people in jail get their jail out of free card? They only violated laws...

There is one true way to stop illegals, you punish the heck out of those who hire them.. Make it illegal, punishable by jail. When business owners face jail, they will stop hiring illegals and illegals will return home.

If Uneducated criminals are going to be a lasting part of the democratic party, this is nothing that I want to do with.

The strongest argument aganist amnesty is that we can't give amnesty to people who break our laws and if goverment grants amnesty it will only encourge such behavior in the future. Therefore, I am pretty sure treason is more dangerous to our society than some mexican crossing our border and working in our country illegally. If we can give people, who committed treason amnesty then we can sure consider giving illegals amnesty.

NO confederates didn't play loud music. They killed american and betrayed this country. That's more dangerous.
Yes, Some illegals do commit crime. So did the confederate---Treason.

Again the whole argument aganist amnesty is that we are nation of laws and that we can't give amnesty to those who break our laws. You can't compare any other violation of law(such as working without a permit) with committing treason(the mother of all crimes). And If we can give amnesty for treason(which we did with confederates), we can sure give amnesty to illegals(except those who commit violence).

You have to be kidding;right. If the next president can accomplish one major thing he will be lucky. Presidents are only so powerful afterall. I really think no one is going to bring up amnesty after the storm when they last tried to pass it twice. Amnesty for illegals is something no one wants to touch now.

Wow, this post must be the worst one I've ever read where a person places his political party over his country. Make illegals citizens so they can vote for you, no matter what the financial or societal consequences The he** with the country, it is only the PARTY that matters.

Crap like this is what turns the average person off when it comes to politics.

will you also kill black people for sagging their pants and listening to rap real loud? because ... as long as your on a roll... might as well go all the way?

Then we can hang all the homosexuals too!
AND lets go ahead and drown those idiot hindues with the dots on their head!!

Its this kind of thinking, this kind of profiling and biggotry, that is a threat to our freedom. I am anti-immigration, i do want to secure our borders. But i will not be caught dead using stereo-typing and racism as one of my reasons to secure the borders....
