Any current proposal for “solving” the immigration issue isn’t going to cut it. There is no single solution. Until people can realize that it is not a cut and dry issue, no progress will be made.

Will someone please explain to the Dems what “illegal” means.One reason wages are down for many workers is illegals working for peanuts.

full of lies but effective…superbly engineered to strike deep and hard and create fear into a community who already is in a state of panic, and although they do not vote, they have families and friends who do. It is being played over and over here in Nevada. The Republicans have their work caught up. They outsmarted Obama when they chose Palin, but they NEED the Hispanic Vote to win. They better come up guns ablaze and counter this immediately, otherwise, they will pay the price on election day.

What a lot of us forget is that the basic idea of this country is to welcome immigrants. A great majority of us are Christians and our religion calls upon us to be open to helping those in need and living side by side with our fellow men. However, we cannot say yes to all of that if it just isn’t the way that we feel. Take a pick on which problems are the worst: abortion, economy, immigration or gay marriage. All are very prickly and difficult. This is the reason we need better leaders in Washington, DC than we have had, and this is why I am going to vote for Barack Obama because he has the most basic midwestern values in his intellectual and spiritual arsenal. He is a walking testament of what his 1950’s non-conformist mother and her conservative, good and wise parents taught their grandson. Folks, we couldn’t ask for more.

Niether McAmnesty nor Barakamnesty give a damn about the U.S. All they care about is getting votes from illegals.

12 million is a false number. The politicians have been using that number for years while the border is being breached by countless numbers of illegals 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.

They both want to change the face of America and destroy it as we have known it.

I say seal the borders using all means available and then start rounding up every illegal and those that employ them. Deport all illegals and jail the employers for a minimum of 5 years per illegal that they have working for them. Let Americans get the much needed jobs at a fair wage.

I say use the National Guard to secure the borders and also use them to assist in rounding up and deporting ALL illegals.

Ed’s post the whole truth. McCain did not support that immigration bill in primaries that he previously co-sponsored for good reason; the American people Demanded the bill be killed. This is partly why I’m voting for McCain, he wanted the bill he relented to do the people’s will. He also wants a gas tax holiday for the people. He’s worked to serve the people, not himself. He has shown good judgement through the years and works across the isle; said will appoint both dems and repubs in his cabinet.
Romney would have been better for immigration reform but McCain is opposite of Obama who said to Hillary in debate in response to sending illegals back who are criminals that ‘it’s critical we be careful not to say that because hate crimes against illegals are on rise’. Very few hates crimes on illegals, but 40,000 plus hate crime murders on American citizens. Do we want his affirmitative action where whites who are a minority as in Los Angeles will be looked over in favor of official minority students. His plans to spend tax payer monies for illegals, minorities and other nations are vast. Good judgement means not copying others ideas, words, constantly, and it has to do with wisdom, maturity and strength.

McCain has tried to find some common ground on immigration. He deserves some credit for this. The compromise was killed by his Republican friends. Things have changed since then, and he no longer talks about immigration. In order to win, he discontinued the “Straight Talk Express”. He understands he cannot let Republicans know what his true positions are on immigration, and cannot afford to let independents know what he thinks about everything else, as the answer is “just like Bush”. He has made lies and deception the cornerstone of his campaign.

Let’s not forget that it was McCain who began accusing Obama of the same lies he’s now facing from his opponent. It’s not an excuse, but you reap what you saw.
