According to many, it's "impractical" and "impossible" to find and deport illegals; but if Eisenhower did it in 1940 something, how come we cannot do it today?

We had the will to deport illegals in the 1950s, and the will to go to the Moon in the 1960s.

America's political class has neither the desire nor the motivation to deport illegals.

All it would take is strict enforcement of the legal ban in hiring them, and many would go home of their own accord.

There is little this country can't do, if we work at it.

Again, it's not lack of ability, but lack of determination.

definite, I have considered it ensue. They got here to my production unit and were given sixty 8 and the second one time in hassle-free words were given 11. additionally they raided 2 different factories in my city and under no circumstances effective of the precise # in spite of the indisputable fact that it really is a start up. a number of those deported were no longer mexican yet were asian. So No they dont in hassle-free words deport mexicans yet in aspect of truth the final public of illegals are mexican. No contact upon the unlawful from eire as I dont understand the information of her case. merely about a good attempt at throwing the race card.

Come to work with me any night and I will show ICE a large cache of those Illegals no problem.
I am not making assumptions based on their skin or language just facts.
Now if I can find them , why is it so difficult for others to do so,I`ll tell you why, The advocates cry foul therefore instilling the Illegals sense of having freee run of the place.

Unlawful Entry is a CRIME. America love it or leave it. Unlawful Entry is a CRIME. Leave it Now. Zero tolerance for immigration-law violators! No amnesty, no "stealth-amnesty." No "change of status," marriage fraud, "exceptional leave to remain," no "Temporary Protected Status." If you break the law, depart or be deported. Illegal aliens kill more US citizens each year than the war in Iraq has killed in four years. Apologists for illegal immigration like to paint it as a victimless crime. But in fact, illegal immigration causes substantial harm to American citizens and legal immigrants, particularly those in the most vulnerable sectors of our population--the poor, minorities, and children. Additionally, job competition by waves of illegal immigrants willing to work at substandard wages and working conditions depresses the wages of American workers, hitting hardest at minority workers and those without high school degrees. Illegal immigration also contributes to the dramatic population growth overwhelming communities across America--crowding school classrooms, consuming already limited affordable housing, and straining precious natural resources like water, energy, and forestland. Taxpayers are being forced to pay for the free health care, education, and other welfare programs being given to illegal aliens; Those tax dollars could be given back to U.S. taxpayers or used to keep our borders secure; They may be here illegally, but they sure know how to "work the system" to collect "free" medical care, "free" education, "free" food, Section 8 housing vouchers and other housing assistance, and hundreds of other social services. It costs citizens additional hundreds of billions of tax dollars at every level: local, state, and federal. It gobbles up billions of our charitable contributions. And much of that money ends up siphoned out of our economy and into offshore accounts. Illegal aliens, over half of whom work "under the table" with neither job nor income reported (nor taxed), are not counted as employed or unemployed. But some of those day-labor and off-the-books "job-lets" would be "real" jobs - available to American citizen job-seekers - if employment regulations were enforced. Illegal aliens can get away with tax evasion, et al., which citizens cannot. In short, we have too many workforce entrants and too few jobs created. The ratio works out to roughly 7-10 workforce entrants per job created. If all illegal aliens depart or are deported, all legal immigration halted, and all temporary employment visas abolished, we still have a problem with more US-born workforce entrants than new jobs created. Illegal immigration damages our country and our citizens every day at every level. And not even the attacks of 2/26 and 9/11 have awakened many Americans to the vast dangers illegal immigration poses to our selves, our families, our communities, our society, our values, our principles, our civilization. Zero Tolerance for Immigration-Law Violators! We must remember the lessons of 2/26, 9/11, and the costs we bear every single day. God Bless the U S A !

Money talks....
And depends on what side you are in the game, you will hear promises either to eliminate and stop illegal immigration
(like Bush's approval to build a wall along the US/Mexican border) or to help illegal workers (Bush' promises to work in a comprenhensive reform), so put in plain and simple the government doesn't give a damn.

The short answer? Political Correctness.

It's call 'profiling' & whether it works or not is besides the leftist point. It's not nice to pick someone out based on whether they were born in the U.S. or not; whether they speak English as their first language or not; whether they are U.S. citizens or not.

We are going to Politically Correctly pound ourselves into a hole that we aren't going to be able to dig ourselves out of if we don't get a healthy does of common sense & quit being so touchy feely.

Because political correctness hasn't reached the moon yet. Give it time. And, by the way, the initiative that you are referring to during the Eisenhower administration was called, "Operation Wetbackk". No, I am not joking.

I can't figure that out either. We can find one cow that came from Canada that might have mad cow disease. We can find and round up any cattle that she might have given birth to but we can't do anything about the illegals in the U.S. It's a joke!!

Its kind of the same with control of our borders and ports, we sure could if we really wanted to. But sadly, big business still runs this country, Washingtons will do anything for votes, and last the liberals.

Please, it you want to stop amnesty, do not speak about deporting the illegals. It will only give ammo to the illegals and their enablers. Once are laws on enforced, illegals will find their way home, the same way they found their way here
