That is a different question in it's entirety....What you are wanting is secure borders.I think most everyone can get behind that idea.
What that fails to address is the millions and millions already here.What do we do about them ?

Send them home until and/or unless they go through legal channels to enter the country legally...

Doesn't the new immigration policy require those who came illegally to pay a fine and go to the end of the legalization queue?


I think it does impost a fine, but, as for going to the back of the line? Not necessarily. The people who have already come here illegally can get a work visa right now. There is a limit on the number of those we allow every year (I'm not even sure why we put a limit on that), so, no, they won't be going to the back of the line.

We also have limits on the number of immigrants allowed from any one country to prevent that country from sending "too many" immigrants, as compared to the total number (iirc, it's 1/6 of the total immigrant population can be nationals from one country). While that will help spread immigration access to nationals of a greater number of countries, if we removed the limits on how many immigrants we let in, there wouldn't be any need for ratio limits.

There are people who are waiting in their home countries for the opportunity to legally come to America. Those who have already come here illegally are not being sent behind them in line. They are being allowed to stay here.

I think I remember the President's saying they'd go to the back of the proverbial line for citizenship applications, but I'm no expert on this.

I think we've had enough experience with US Presidents not telling the whole truth, haven't we?

While the bill (after reading related articles) does seem to put those already here illegally at the back of the naturalization line, as you (and the President) claimed. But, what if naturalization isn't even a goal for those coming here illegally? What if the only reason they are here is to make money to send back to their home countries?

Article that speculates (and even states that it's speculation).

Article that doesn't speculate on how many, but shows that illegal immigrants are divided on the attainment of naturalization.

So, if a person only wants to be here legally, but has no care for becoming a US Citizen, ending the threat of deportation basically rewards that person with their end game: legal presence.

If you dont have a green card, or citizenship you no workee anywhere. Game, set, match. Done after the first corporate arrests from the highest to lowest of management.

Is it more than paying for all of them in the judicial and welfare systems now? Is it more than enforcing drug laws? Is it more than pursuing and punishing killers? Rapists? Bank robbers? Is it more than a war overseas?

This country is built upon laws. Foreign nationals were NOT given rights in this country when the constitution was drafted.

And, this country NEVER considers cost when the government decides to enact and/or enforce/impose its will on others.

Cost should not be a factor. But, if it is - it will be less costly to personally fly every illegal alien back to his/her country of origin than it will to pay welfare, judicial, and other costs to the flood this new law is going to encourage.

Again, if I have to follow the law; why don't they??? Right is right; wrong is wrong; and it is WRONG to secretly cross the borders of another country, to INVADE foreign soil, and expect to be rewarded for it!!!

I agree. Cut off the money; cut off the problem.
And, I'm all for going after people/corporations that hire and/or aid illegals.

But, I disagree with the law - invasion is an act of war; not a civil dispute! If you aren't going to treat illegals as prisoners of war there should be no "civil dispute" it should be as simple as pushing them back across the border they just came across.

This doesn't have to be a human rights violation. Every person has the right to be treated respectfully. And, I sympathize with people wanting a better life. However, without obeying the law we have anarchy. And, if we are going to allow foreign nationals to force this country into anarchy; that standard should be across the board with every type of law - not just the laws the people who are not even citizens want to violate.

And if it would hold, we would focus on that, instead of the simple fucking problem, incarcerate and draconian fines for those who are under this law criminals, the employers.

I wonder how many asked you that question in 2003 about Bush.

I guess about 10 guys is enough to keep you folks guessing and flipping.


People asked questions like this for as long as I can remember. The first President I actually have an active memory of was Nixon, so for me personally, Nixon set the standard for how I viewed all subsequent Presidents during my lifetime. Of course, as I grew a bit older and studied more about our history and all the other presidents we've had, in addition to seeing 7 more guys in the job after Nixon, I've been able to put it all in better perspective.

I grew up in a politically mixed family. My father and his side of the family were all staunch Republicans, a few of whom might even qualify as "arch-conservative." My mother and her side of the family were Democrats. I've been able to see both points of view, and in that sense, I don't view either party as necessarily "bad," but I don't view them as necessarily "good" either. I also try to look at them from a larger historical perspective and see how they developed into what they are today.

I think people did ask those questions back in 2003, but back then, there was still quite a bit of war fever among the general public. But there have been those asking questions about US military or intelligence activities all along, but neither party has been able to give any real answers. We still question things our government did decades or even over a century ago. They questioned them back then, too.

I don't think there's anything wrong with questioning the government or the President on anything. But it's a different matter when one attempts to assign blame. Party politics is about blaming the other party for your own party's screw-ups. Or taking credit when things go well.





My Point was that ...well I'm not american but if I was I wouldn't be discussing politics in terms of the two parties anymore for they and their represenatives have been shown to lack charaxcter no matter which you choose.

The "Berlin Wall" legislation was passed years ago, but never materialized.

Do you understand how this representative form of government works? Elected representatives are there to represent their constituents. Now, if you have proof that the GOP representatives are casting votes in opposition to what their constituents actually want, then that's a different discussion, and one that should be had (but, by their constituents). If you don't have that proof, then, it's just as likely that the GOP representatives are faithfully representing their constituents, which is pretty much exactly what they are supposed to be doing.

What war(s) were started by Executive Order based on false knowledge?
