Idea why don't we just let Kennedy pay for their freeloading, Or better yet let him house them and pay their taxes for them on Martha's Vineyard.

It's about time this country starts enforcing its immigration laws. If we had done this from the beginning we wouldn't have these problems.

I am a native Seneca Indian and I completely agree with Chris Thiele's comment above. If only we native Americans had enforced tough immigration rules a few hundred years ago, then we wouldn't have George Bush or Kennedy in this nation or any of the current problems.

Finally, we are going to enforce our laws.

No, matter your political party affiliation, and setting aside your thoughts on issues. We all need to remember what it is to be an American Citizen. We need to make sure our elected representatives obey their Oath of Office and keep their Oath of Allegiance.

I think Bush is giving people exactly what they want. When the economy starts to suffer more, he will lay the blame on the lack of immigration reform and on Americans who are living in denial. This will pave the way for the next President to ensure immigration reform or amnesty. Shepard Smith said it today on his program, 'Be careful for what you wish for'.

It sounds funny to say the US will crack down harder since everyone knows the gov did not ever crack down at all in the first place.

The last time Bush was going to fix the border he wanted to open it completely. Comprehensive was his slang for 'let them all be citizens'.
Look close at the details!

In the new crack down maybe he will have his buddy Johnny use an unfair trial to lock up some more border patrol guys for doing their job while giving a drug cartel guy free passes to smuggle more drugs.

Quote: 'US to crack down harder on illegal immigrants (Roundup)'

Haa Haa. Zero times a brazilian still equals zero.

This could be the next tactic of the Bush administration in getting an Amnesty Bill passed.

If they get a panic going in business and then get a panic going in the public, through the use of the media, they could appear to sway opinion in their favor.

I already see a sort of panic on the rise anyway. The economy appears to be correcting itself to all of the scams and lawlessness.

We’ve run up the price of our homes just like we did stock in the thirties. We were willing to out-borrow the next. It works okay on the way up. Not so great on the way down.

Then you’ve got the presses full speed to finance all of the wars.

I have seen this sort of article over and over recently.

If they do, do this I would expect a huge correction to follow their actions.

Ditto to RJ. But also , it clearly shows the decling work ethic of the American workers including the employers, border patrol, immigtration, legislators. All of them just lazed away and let it happen over the last 20 year or so. And they will probably keep arguing and do nothing until another do or die situation hits them.

quote from President Theodore Roosevelt in a letter to the American Defense Society in 1919, 10 years after his presidency.

'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 man's becoming in very fact 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, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile...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, 1919 -

First of all Americans are not living In denial, We cannot support people who break the Law, It wouldn't be so bad If we just had to pay for the Criminal that broke the law, Its the 20 dozen kids per House hold that we will not pay for any longer. Its the Freeloader that just takes and takes that we wont pay for anymore, The Senior Citizens In this Country have to pay School taxes and their Kids are already grown, So If they have to pay why shouldn't the Law breaker have to pay? We have to pay taxes why because It the law. I also hope that you watched the Lou Dobs and heard what he had to say.......................................................
