#3 "Think of them as 'undocumented Democrats'!"

LOL. I needed that. Priceless comment Fred. Thnx.

However, not a priceless program like everything else coming down the pike lately. Full plate? Just think of it as smoke and mirrors or distraction.

#4 Here is another view from San Diego:

Ladd: It isnt impossible to stop illegal immigration

Many people would have us believe that it would not actually be possible to round up and deport all illegal aliens in the U.S. This is most definitely not the case. It is merely a lack of resolve to do so. How can I say this? Easy. Its been done successfully multiple times in the past. In fact, three of our most well-known presidents initiated successful illegal alien deportation programs.

William Ladd is a radiologist in San Diego.
First, President Herbert Hoover, during the great depression, ordered the deportation of all illegal aliens in order to make jobs available to American citizens that desperately needed work. My question is, why would you have to make an exception to business as usual to enforce the law?

Next, the greatly respected President Harry Truman deported over two million illegal aliens after World War II to create jobs for returning veterans. Were they allowed in because of a workforce shortage during WWII? I suppose that could be a reason they were here.

So the situation is similar but this time we have Zero and Company.

#5 Truman and Hoover, regardless of their policies or politics, were still well rooted as being 'American'. They identified themselves as such. They took their oath of office as a obligation to the American people. The current crowd are transnationalists and socialists raised and schooled by the non-American tax subsidized academia. They have no loyalty to any American, only power and special interest groups.

#6 Keep going Wonder Boy, get behind another unpopular and foolish initiative - trying to ensure one term. Although McCain prolly would not have been much different, GWB wasn't good on immigration either. Build a wall, deport (or as I like to say repatriate lost foreign citizens) illegals and crush all companies that knowingly hire them. Problem solved - minus our politicos have no spine for this.

#7 The US electorate does not have the stomach for illegal alien amnesty period. With near double-digit unemployment a comprehensive immigration bill is a non-starter. If you've seen this show before you may have noticed this nonsense gets floated about every couple of months. This seems to be one of The Great Obamagicians favorite illusions. Watch with amazement as he fools the useful tools in the Congressional Hispanic Caucus and simultaneously distracts his critics. In the Biz it's known as ole' the Chicago Two-fer.

#8 Addressing immigration apart from other policies is just more smoke-and-mirrors. The immigration issue has not been addressed in regards to health care. Much of California's (and other states in the red)budget problems are the result of illegal aliens receiving health care, social service benefits, housing, education and in-state tuition rates, etc. that sometimes even citizens do not qualify for. We have competing philosophies here--either the US is a sovereign constitutional nation or we are global citizens, with international law superseding our laws and rights, with "human rights" for all but lawful Americans. Deport first, then bipartisan discussion can begin.

#9 I think we should allow them to come in. However, any illegals caught will be used for either involuntary organ donors or for a variety of testing. Medical, automotive, safety, etc. Human testing for everything!
