The Consevative leadership of the Republican party just drew up and signed a document basically saying that if Senators vote for Amnesty and not closing the borders properly, they will lose all support from the consevative aspects of the Republican party. They basicly indicate that if Senators don't vote to send the illgels away by closing the border and don't remove the illegals from the US and not give amnesty, no matter what their other policy views maybe, they will be voted out of office by this groups influence. They call the issue of support for ill. immigrants, a "Deal Breaker".
Do you think the passion of this segement of the Rep. party will put enough pressure on Rep. Senators to change the tide? Will this action make a difference?

During the Industrial Revolution of the late 19th century and until the mid-50s (I'm guessing) the majority of US Labor was manual. People on assembly lines cranking out widgets. With the advent of technology, we have slowly moved from a production society to a service society. Most of the assembly lines have been automated, a Caterpillar tractor has replaced 25 ditchdiggers, etc.

There are approximate 12 million undocumented workers filling the jobs that most Americans supposedly won't work. Basically, the remnants of the physical labor industries that haven't been automated yet.

In twenty years, if things do not changed, we will swell to 50 million undocumented. If automation continues and strawberries are picked by machine, and lawn are mowed by machine, how will the American economy be able to support 50 million unemployed?

I said I would never. But do you think I should? I'm sitting here wondering if my Indian Grandfather was a traitor for marrying a Scottish woman or was my Scottish Grandmother a traitor for marrying an Indian man. So called "Native Americans" holler about this being their land, but more than half of their ancestors married those so called "Whites" who came here and took it from them. The "Whites" said it was their land and called the Indians "Savages" and such, but married them anyway. And their half breed offspring have been fighting about who's right and who's wrong ever since. It seems to me that taking a side would be denying at least half my heritage. What kind of human would that make me? Why can't I just be an American with colorful blood like all the rest, who just happens to believe the Law of this land should be upheld? We don't have to agree with our Law but we do have do uphold it. Don't we? Doesn't the Law allow us the priveledge of not having to choose sides?

"The House overwhelmingly approved a spending bill containing an amendment by U.S. Rep. John Culberson, R-Houston, intended to force state and local authorities, to get more involved with immigration enforcement-or risk losing MILLIONS in federal grants!" Culberson had listed Houston among other cities, that have "adopted sanctuary policies which prevent law enforcement officers from inquiring about legal status". Culberson said the ammendment passed today,and others he has attached to unrelated spending bills, "are neccessary to combat the governments widespread and systematic refusal to protect our border and enforce the immigration laws". It will become law if Bush signs it. Do we DARE hope????

why can't the ruling class in Mexico stabilize their country and people's lives? the real enemies are the Mexican elite, not the poor. They are responsible for the corruption and low wages. Vincent Fox does not feel any embarrasment at all about his country and all the people LEAVING it.

I'm an Indonesian married to an American man and I just got my permanent resident visa. Now I want to become a U.S. citizen with my husband's full support. I arrived in the U.S. for the first time with my husband in April 2005. How long would it take for me to gain U.S. citizenship if I applied today? What are the steps involved?

I just read on Yahoo news that France offers illegal immigrants a payment of money if they will voluntarily step up and deport themselves. Would this work in the USA for illegal immigrants, do you think?
