Its Back

The comprehensive amnesty, open border bill is back. Harry Reid is going to re-introduce this piece of garbage bill using some back-channel methods to get it passed. Call your Senators, let them know the American people do not want this bill. We want the laws already on the books enforced, not a whole new batch that can be ignored!

Ding Dong its Dead

The Senate, in a brief moment of sanity, killed the Comprehensive Immigration Bill and what gets me the politicians like Harry Reid don’t understand why it died. Maybe if the Senators and Representatives would quit telling the American people what they are supposed to think and listen to what the people really feel then maybe Harry would catch a clue. Americans are sick of hearing about these schemes to legalize illegal immigrants, Z visas, and guest worker programs, we want Congress to do one simple thing. Control the Border…. Once the borders, North and South are secure then we can start talking about what to do with the folks already here. When I hear “Comprehensive” come attached to a law then I know it will be nothing but red-tape and bureaucracy, something we need less of in Washington. Just enforce the laws we already have, fine companies for hiring illegals, quit harboring illegals in our cities and send them back to their own country when you do catch them!

Borders first, then when government can prove they have control over who comes into this country, then we can decide who we let in and be sure they will have a job when they get here. This under-the-table form of slavery we have now needs to stop. The Hispanics fought long and hard in the 60′s and 70′s led by Cesar Chavez, for better wages and conditions. Now this new batch of illegals have undermined the sacrifices and battles those people fought for. Control the borders for the benefit of all.

Gotta quit reading those history books, seems we keep making the same mistakes!

Cart Before the Horse

Turned on the TV this morning and the first thing I saw was Ted Kennedy spouting about the newest Amnesty Bill. I’m sorry, you cannot have a legal way to citizenship until you plug up all of the holes in the system. This bill will likely be more of the same. Laws are only as good as the governments ability to enforce them. The fence is still not being funded, our border agents still sit in jail for ding their job, and the Border has become a war zone. Things look all rosy from an office in Washington, try going down to Laredo Ted. Secure the Borders first. This must be done before we can make all of these grand political schemes to legalize the illegals already here. Prove that you are willing to enforce the laws already on the books before you tell me how great of a job you are doing creating new ones. Fund the fence and additional border security. Lets not be in such a hurry to give away our country for political power.

Speaking of borders, I’m heading North to cross that border tonight.

Everyone stay safe and watch out for the other guy.

Senate Stupidity

Donald — Sat, 20 May 2006 13:04:35 +0000

Just another example of how out of touch our representatives in Washington really are; Now the Senate is wanting to give Social Security Benefits to ILLEGALs. Are these people really that stupid or is it that they are doing anything possible to sabotage the very law they are creating. I have already heard the House will not even bother to work out a compromise with the Senate on the Immigration Bill. It is obvious to me that the Senate is trying to sidestep their responsibilities to the American people by fronting a Bill that is so bad the whole deal will fall apart in committee. We will end up going back to business as usual. More Illegals than ever!
