Thats right, SEVEN: 1. In 1986, Ted Kennedy’s blanket amnesty for 2.7 million illegal aliens promised a lot more enforcement but did not set any requirments for actual reductions in illegal immigration. The illegal flow continued.
2. In 1994, Ted Kennedy’s Section 245(i) Amnesty gave legal residence and jobs to 578,000 illegal aliens. It was a temporary rolling amnesty primarily for extended family members of immigrants who instead of waiting in line, come on to the country illegally. The illegal flow continued.
3. In 1997, Ted Kennedy’s extension of the Section 245(i) rolling amnesty was followed by an increasing flow of illegal immigration.
4. In 1997, Ted Kennedy also won an amnesty for close to one million illegal aliens from Central America. Illegal immigration sped up some more.
5. In 1998, Ted Kennedy won an amnesty for 125,000 illegal aliens from Haiti. The illegal flow continued.
6. In 2000, Ted Kennedy got the so-called Late Amnesty, legalizing another 400,000 illegal aliens who claimed that they missed out on Kennedy’s 1986 amnesty. Illegal immigration continued unimpeded.
7. In 2000, Ted Kennedy also won the LIFE Act Amnesty for an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. It was another reinstatement of the rolling Section 245(i) amnesty., an estimated 900,000 illegal aliens. Illegal immigration accelerated.
Now, Ted Kennedy is saying that this amnesty is necessary if we are ever to stop the flow of illegal aliens. Why would any of these Senators believe him when he says this amnesty bill will end illegal immigration with a track record like his?

It's all about the $$.
Enforce the border security
Punish those companies doing the hiring.
The jobs dry up
Illegals will leave.
IT ALL STARTS WITH ENFORCING THE LAWS CURRENTLY ON THE BOOKS!!!!!!!

Ted Kennedy is a horse's patoot. He's apparently in the company of Arlen Specter, Harry Reid, John Kyl, and our "president," the Idiot King.
Truly, this was a bi-partisan botched effort to ram through amnesty against law-abiding, taxpaying Americans.

Kennedy has been a train wreck for years. He is from a bygone era and needs to just fade away like the dinosaurs, which is what he is. He is returning the favor for the amnesty he got for killing a young lady in Chappaquiddick. That was a long time ago.

You need to include his 1965(?) immigration reform bill. His 1965(?) law is the reason why we have this mess.
Ted Kennedy is proof that alcohol should be banned from use in congress.

His brother declared amnesty for the Thanksgiving Turkey and Ted granted amnesty to bootleggers!

Ted cant be trusted , I really believe he will eventually retire in Mexico. He might continue his ( illustrious ) career over there.

And your point is? Because I'm not sure what else you want, I know these anti-illegals will complaing about this too and keep mentioning "illegal is illegal" or "deport all illegals." But I"m not sure what you want out of this.

You forgot the one where he never had to stand criminal trial for that dead woman in his car.
If that isn't amnesty...
