Start the calling again- the president and the Senate just don't seem to get it. They are going to try to push this not very funny joke past the citizens of the United States come h*ll or high water. Click here to find your Senator's contact information.
Rasmussen Reports has released new information on the bill: Only 23% of voters support the bill. (click here for report)
Over 80% of Republicans, 55% of democrats and 69% of independent or non-affiliated voters support enforcement only- no amnesty.
As has been noted all over the Internet- the war is more popular than this bill.
The Bill has a lower approval rating than Bush.
The Report discusses real immigration reform supported by citizens of the United States:
A great example, supported by 57% of US citizens: Give illegals 3 years to leave.and require them to get in line behind all of the law followers in their home country. (I would add that those who are caught in this country after the three years expire would be permanently banned from receiving a Visa to enter the country again.)
This is probably one of the most important issues to face our country in its history. The interests and intentions of immigrants have changed in the past generation. We can not accept the Linda Chavez view that in two or three generations the illegals will have totally assimilated into American culture.
The United States can not risk its future hoping that illegals respect our country and its laws when their behavior already demonstrates that this view is off the mark.
Finally, we can not allow political correctness to turn this into a discussion in which conservatives have to defend themselves against charges of racism. The vast majority of illegal aliens are Hispanic. That is a fact.
Every government agency and law enforcement entity should be able to ask about the immigration status of any person they think may be an illegal alien. There are massive numbers- millions and millions and millions of illegal aliens from Mexico, Central and South American countries. While there may be some Scandinavians who have snuck in to the U.S., they really don't seem to be the problem, today.
To use the threat of racism against law enforcement as they try to catch illegals is ridiculous. Hispanic Americans or any other American who argues that there needs to be some sort of irrational policy that proportionally targets all races is foolish.
This is the same illogical reasoning that led to searches of 80 year old grandmothers because they might be hiding box cutters in their support hose...
Enough is enough already. If Bush wants comprehensive immigration reform, he should work with conservatives to actually draft it. This Bill is a joke. Kill it once and for all so we can all move on to actually solving the problems related to illegal immigration. That is something 80% of Americans will get behind.
