#1 if they have been here more than five years."

Let me get this straightthe Undocumented have been keeping documentation to prove the length time they have been in the US. What about the ones that have been here at least five years but cant provide any proof? Im assuming if they cant provide something official such as an easily forged pay stub or letter from employer that the honor system will be acceptable.

#2 Looks like the "compromise" the Senate is seeking here looks a lot like "status quo". With ice cream on it...

#3 The overwhelming majority of the 3 million in the 1986 amnesty are now solid, responsible, good Americans. The 8 million will become the same if we let them.

Right now they're just law breakers. Why should they get a prefeerence over the 8 million in India, China , the Philippines who want to be citizens and have followed the law?

#4 I agree with you 100% nimble. Don't let a single one of them even apply until the last one which petitioned for an immigration visa the second before this goes into effect is eligible to apply for citizenship.

Do not reward their illegal behavior by allowing them to cut in line ahead of law-abiding applicants (some of whom have been patiently waiting for YEARS!) -- which this bill would 'piss on' once again.
