Our New Immigration Bill
Hispanics vote Democratic 63% of the time. The Democrats just got at least 63% of twelve to twenty million new voters. The rich Republicans who control Republican politicians just got a whole bunch of legal cheap workers for their corporations. Since the Republican party will now be defunct if this bill becomes law, I think we will see the rise of a third party to represent those of us who are not Democrats or rich Republicans.

I despair. I see nothing good coming of this.
The middle class (us) is being squeezed into a minority....not a good place to be. We'll get caught in the crossfire of an inevitable bloody revolution. Well, I'll probably be long gone by then. I despair for our principles and children.
Now I'm starting to have more confidence in my own assessment of things. Just found this opinion piece that supports my intuition.
(Am I getting scary-smart in my old age?)
Ira Mehlman with the Federation for American Immigration Reform says under this plan, the government would be "allowing everybody who applies for amnesty the right of judicial review, so if anybody is rejected, they are entitled to their day in court." And in addition to the amnesty, he notes, "they're talking about a huge guest-worker program, probably 400,000 unskilled workers coming to this country every year with their dependent relatives. The enforcement mechanisms are an absolute joke."
This bill spells doom for the American middle class, Mehlman contends. "There are going to be costs running into the hundreds of billions of dollars if not the trillions of dollars, and it is basically a death sentence for the middle class in the United States," he says.
"It is going to be an absolute disaster," the FAIR spokesman asserts, "and what they're doing here is irrevocable. Once it's done, it's done. There's nothing you can do to go back on it. We will have a two-class society within a generation. You will have a small number of rich people, and the rest of us will be scrambling to keep our heads above water."
However, Mehlman notes, if the full Senate approves the immigration reform measure, there is still a chance it will be rejected in the House. The bill is expected to go before the full Senate next week.

Call your senators and congressmen all weekend. Send faxes - whatever, make a loud
noise.
This whole thing is a smokescreen that stinks to high heaven.
Let's hope the sleeping American conservative giant wakes up and goes on a rampage. Better a wild war of electable ideals than a real revolution.
I'm trying real hard not to despair, but there is something truly wicked in the wind and I'm afraid we haven't seen anything yet.
Wow, way to bum the troops out there, Robin.
Sorry! I meant to say I like puppies! I love puppies!
Anything that makes Ted Kennedy happy (as this bill does) spells doom for middle class America.

We must steel ourselves and never give up. No matter how hopeless it appears.
For the children! For Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness!
For God, family and Country!
And for the puppies!

For the puppies!
