do you think that president Bush would stick with his agendas about how to decrease illegal immigration?

Doubt it.  We'll have to "put on a show of force" with Iran before long, and all the little illegal Mexicans can carry on with whatever the hell they were doing.

NOTHING will change. \n\nThe reason it was even brought up was so it can look like Bush is doing something.\n\nNothing will change because us rich americans want someone who will mow our lawns for cheap and work in our restaraunts for cheap.    The majority of people in office benefit from illegals so it wont change.\n\nI get my car washed inside and out, completely polished for $5 right outside of NYC thanks to illegals.  Viva Mexico!

No. He has abused his power. He has lied to the people he is supposed to serve. He is self-serving and supports big business while cutting assistance to those who need it most. Jobs are being outsourced at an astounding rate under his administration. When he took office there was a budget suplus, now we have enormous deficit. He talks about keeping our nation safe while allowing illegal immigrants to enter the nation at thousands per day. He has burdened our education system with his ineffective "no child left behind" without providing the funding to support it. He has taken us to war against another country with faulty intelligence (which, of course, he was well aware). Many in his administration are corrupt and unethical. He apoints people that are not qualified for their positions. (And people call these the actions of a Christian? Not in my book.)\n\nDo I think he's a good president? I think he's the worst President we've had in my lifetime, and I've been around for awhile. Unfortunately, he will remain the President long enough to do more damage.

If the House holds firm, no bill will be passed and things will remain as they are.  The House has passed a bill that does not have a path to citizenship but instead has major border security improvements and greater penalties for those violating immigration laws or encouraging illegal immigration.  The Senate did not approve that Bill as being too draconian and not containing the other elements Bush wanted, and is trying to get enough similarity of thought within the Senate to pass their own version of a Bill.  Once done, the Senate and House have to negotiate their bills into one that both the Senate and House will vote on, yes or no.  \n\nIf there are truly fundamental differences between the negotiators for the House and Senate Bills, there would likely be no agreement, and hence no change in law.\n\nEven if the House Bill is passed as is, I truly think the President would veto it, and I don't think it has enough support to overcome a veto.

Will the Mexican invaders pack up and go back to Mexico from having a guilty conscience ? \nNo, no guilty conscience.\n\nWill Western Union stop bleeding the Great U.S.A. by sending money to Mexico ?\nNo, it is great business for them.\n\nWill Vicente Fox share his wealth ?\nNo way, actually the children of his wife are stealing even more than him, and no, they won't share either.\n\n Will Mexico stop being poor and corrupt ? \nYes. If there is cooperation with the US, this can happen in six years.\n\nWill Mexicans stop speaking the language of the people that conquered them ? \nWe are mixed, we will speak both Spanish and native dialects.\n\nWill a border be built that is serious about security ? \nNo.\n\nWill President Bush not be influenced by his Mexican born sister in law ?\nNo.\n\n Will the U.S.A. grow up and have a real immigration policy ?\nNo.\n\n Will the U.S. have a non Hispanic attorney general ?\nNo, for the next three years.

No--millions of Americans are not terrorists yet he has seized phone records of millions.\n\nHe said before...I will ONLY spy on Americans if one of the parties in the call is overseas...he has now lied about what he said...once a liar...always a liar..\n\nBe very afraid as he is taking away our rights more than any other presided and is absolutely the worst president EVER!!  Americans need to be in the streets in the numbers the illegal aliens were.

Come on do you really think it's Bush's doing? I swear the Democrates are hypocrite especially Hilary Clinton. Sean Hannity had a tape of her actually 2 one from months earlier slamming the illegal aliens and a recent one talking about how great they are. My whole problem with all of this is that they are here illegally, why aren't we out arresting them and sticking them on buses and taking them back across the boarder. They are out of control and if we allow them to stay we are just setting ourselves up for future problems. Riots because Gee if we throw a fit and protest then we get our way. What about all the ones over on the other side who are trying to follow our laws and filling out the paper work, is it fair to them. What are we teaching these people? I'll tell you, we are teaching them that it's OK to break our laws, it's OK to protest, well I don't agree, they need to be dealt with and taught that there is no tolerance to those who would break our laws and not follow our rules. I am all for allowing people into our great country, I love my country and I understand why they want to come here but it needs to be done the right way. If it isn't then it will set a president that we won't like and will not be able to live with in the long run. I want people who will follow our laws and respect them. So me that you will do the right thing then I'm all for you coming here.

HAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA\n\nNo.\n\nWe need all of the illegal immigrants to keep the cost of our base goods down.  They are not stealing any jobs that American want, or that we have the workforce to do.  They supplement the lower class structure and involuntarily push the lowest American citizen to a higher level.  Besides, having illegal immigrants to do these jobs in intrinsic to every successful country.  Bush would never make it a felony because all of his friends/supporters are business owners that benefit from them being in this country.  He might as well make it a felony to drive an American car or wear a tie.

Well, I think your facts are reversed.  As you know, many conservative Republicans are not in favor of making helping an illegal alien from another country, for example Mexico, a crime.  As you probably also know, in spring and summer of this year, there were nation-wide protests relating to this hot-button issue.  However, at his press conference the other morning, President Bush proclaimed that he could pass his agenda as far as immigration goes.  Therefore, Dem's are more likely to help President Bush pass a law making assisting illegal aliens a felony.  Therefore, I believe that you have your facts reversed. Wouldn't you want to help your own people?  Unless many of the Mexican-Americans were uninformed of the Dem's stand on this issue, then I would have to say that they would not vote Dem's into office because of their stand on this issue.

First let me say that I don't mind illegal immigration. People can't always get into this countryleagally, so I understand. Nobody dreams of moving to a poor, third world countries, or any other country really. (there are exceptions, but not many do). People dream of coming here, where there are oppertunities, morney, and many other things. I think illegal immigration is just a way to connect the borders of the world. If we didn't try so hard to stop to stop people from crossing our border, we could unite the world and have everyone be equal, have equal oppertunities, and mucch more! I think we should try harder to Bush in his tracks. He just restricting us from world peace.

Be careful what you say about illegal immigrants, George Bush and  amnesty McCain might not like it.

I think Fox's position hasn't really changed, he wants american domestic policy to be favorable toward his citizens, and you can't really blame him for advocating that, it's just the firestorm factor, so many people all at once, that kind of thing, immigration is like anything else, it can be a problem if there's too much of it going on. Mexico needs to fix mexico's problems instead of feeding off america all the time. It's not america's responsibility to wipe mexico's ass.

Yes, Americans will allow Bush to do what he wants. The administration has succeeded in paralyzing many people into non-action. I recommend that you go here, and get invovled!\nBush is not,"We The People", but it is clear he doesn't care much what we think.\n\nhttp://www.thefourreasons.org/

5. Impact of amnesty proposals on Illegal Alien numbers \nhttp://www.theamericanresistance.com/ref...\n\nOn January 9, 2004, President Bush proposed a guest worker program- A thinly veiled amnesty for illegal aliens.\n\nA February 29, 2004, Fox News article subsequently stated that from 50 percent to 90 percent of illegal aliens apprehended claimed they were coming here for the "amnesty" (their words). \nOne Border Patrol officer stated that "They believe that they are only responding to an invitation."\n\nAlthough correlation does not necessarily imply causation, it seems reasonable to presume a relatively modest 25 percent increase in illegal aliens starting January 15, 2004, through the rest of the year as a result of the "guest worker" proposal. \nThis 25 percent is a conservative estimate of the increased flow of illegal aliens into the U.S. as a result of President Bush's amnesty proposal. \n\nIn fact, official Border Patrol apprehension statistics show that total 2004 apprehensions as of June 30, 2004 represent \nA 190 PERCENT INCREASE over total 2003 apprehensions.\n\nShort Answer - No It Is NOT A Wise Decision \nTo Grant "AMNESTY" Or "GUEST WORKER PROGRAMS" \nThe Result Will INCREASE The Amount Of ILLEGAL Aliens Entering Our Nation

I think that those who are concerned with this issue recognize an expensive band aid when they see it.  Others didn't care to begin with.\n\nI think he should break his program into two pieces 1) get the border security and employee immigration verification systems in place, then 2) increase future immigration through enhanced legal programs.\n\nThe path to citizenship for qualified illegals already here could start during step one, but the increased immigration going forward should not phase in until the border is demonstrably much more secure, and we have tracking programs to make sure new guest workers go home when their time is up.

1--Enforce the border, even if it means with troops.  This is an invasion.\n\n2--Sanction those who hire them.  I mean jail.  Even for little old ladies who hire them to mow the lawn.  If there is no work, they will not come.\n\n3--End birthright citizenship.  These women who come over to shell out a kid so it will be a US citizen are a problem.\n\n4--NO government benefits for illegals.  I mean no school, no health care no food stamps, no nothing.  That will also slow it down.  \n\n5--National Identity card for all, with biometrics.  I used to be against this, but desperate times call for desperate measures.\n\n6--Major jail time for the coyotes.  That is if we don't shoot them as invaders and leave their bones to bleach.

I'm slightly over 25, but I hope I can still answer.\nIf I were President, there are a few things I would try to do: 1) I'd build that wall on the border with Mexico, it wouldn't fix the problems with illegals here, but it may help stem the tide. 2) I'd try to increase military enlistment and retention (increased bonuses for signing, and benefits after service). 3) I'd fix the gay marriage debate by signing a law prohibiting the gov't from conducting marriages period, the gov't can only conduct civil unions (marriage shall be purely a religious institution, SEPERATE from the state). 4) I'd drill in ANWAR, and the gulf of Mexico, and anywhere else we could to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. 5) institute a national sales tax, no more income, there's a plan already drawn up, and it looks pretty fair. 6) more funding for alternative fuels. 7) (probably most important) I'd withdraw funding for the U.N. and kick them the hell out of my country, and until they can prove they aren't a corrupt bunch of imbeciles, they will get no help from us.
