America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
DING DONG THE WICKED BILL IS DEAD
Published on June 7, 2007 By Moderateman In US Domestic

 The Bush Immigration Bill which came so close to granting everyone and their mother amnesty and a path to citizenship regardless if they were criminals or not, is dead. I was against this bill from the very beginning as I felt it was unfair and disrespectful to so many people that have come to America legally, waited their turn, did the right thing. To see that people were going to be given the gift of citizenship after breaking the law to enter the country ILLEGALLY just made me sick and angered me on so many levels I cannot begin to start a list.

The Senate could not muster enough votes for cloture... so yes the bill has died an ignoble dead, Just the kind of death this bill deserved.

Honestly, I've held my tongue quite a bit when 'debating' with Loca because I like her as a person, however, I've also realized it's quite pointless with someone so poorly informed in regards to political history and short-sighted about the issues of the day.


Well I'm glad you like me. I really don't know that I'm that uninformed. I do read the paper everyday. I try to look up info. that I'm not sure of on the web before I post. I try not to only put up half the story to make my point. I have had a hard time finding an unbiased source of facts. It seems like everything has a spin on it.

So if I'm factually wrong, tell me. If you disagree with my opinion, you can tell me that too. Now the name calling and personal attacks, I probably wouldn't take so well. I do think people haven't laid into me too hard because they know me from the site before I started jumping into the political forums. I just decided that I would speak up more because there seems to be such a conservative slant here. I just want to point out the opposing view and that not all liberals are wackos. It seems like the more liberal regulars are afraid to jump into the melee.

I really don't think everything is puppy dogs and rainbows. I'm not that delusional, am I? Let Loca live in her fantasy world.

but in her case, it's just easier to walk away and leave her embracing her misconceptions, because in her case I feel the general good will between us is more valuable than making my point.


I for one am glad, cause I do lovers Amy . She is a work in progress.

I will not allow anyone to pick on you Amy. Not on my blog anyways.

If this bill was not the solution to this problem....then what IS the solution?


Bad legislation is worse than no legislation. It is unfortunate, but Washington very rarely does "do-overs", so when bad legislation gets passed, we have to suffer from it for a long time.

I dont have an all encompassing solution. But I do have a start (we do not have to raise the titanic in one move). And the start is to secure the borders. There is no point in doing anything about illegals here if - A: you dont know who they are - and B: They change daily.

Stop them from coming - THEN worry about what to do with those that are here.

Put a 25.00 {twenty five} dollar bountry on Illegals crossing the border and watch how many good shot Americans find a new way to make money, I know I would not mind killing some.
