President Bush is doing well.

Bill- The
people who are here unlawfully are generally doing work citizens won't do
(like hard physical labor in the landscape industry or demeaning jobs like
bussing tables and doing dishes elsewhere or stooped over in fields
picking
stuff for your table). Should we round 'em all up and have an "illegal
alien drive"? BRBR

Yes, the operative word here is 'illegal'. What other laws are ok to
break? If
the gent is doing a service for the city, county, etc, it's ok for them to
break the law??

No, not at all. Yet there are about 10-12 million of them. Or, as Lenin
once put it, "Quantity is a quality of its own."g

The only reason they are "illegal" is because a statute or regulation makes
them so. Crossing an artificial line is not a crime "malum in se." IMO
most of the these statutes and regulations are nothing more than an
expression of hostility towards little, brown men who don't speak English.
If our southern neighbor were Sweden or Germany and the illegals all looked
like Anita Ekberg or Ursula Andress (or maybe Rutger Hauer) then I don't
think we would be having this discussion. A brief walk through U.S.
immigration law (including its roots in the hostility towards such "inferior
races" as Irishmen, Dutchmen, etc.) might give you different perspective.

If figure anybody who wants to work should get a big, "COME ON DOWN!"

Bill If we do that who's gonna cut your grass or clean up after at
at Applebees or fill your larder with produce and mushrooms? BRBR

The problem isn't citizens not wanting to do the work, it is employers who
hire
these people breaking the law to save $, savings that are not passed on to
you.

Well, no.

Ever try to hire agricultural labor? I have offered as much as $15/hr. cash
and had no takers for such tasks as bucking hay, weedeating fencelines,
mucking stalls, etc. I can make a quick trip over to Lenoir City and hire a
crew for an 8 hour day at $50/head. And those sons of bitches will work
their butts off for that $50 (where if I hire 'Mericans I will have to do
constant "over the shoulder" supervision).

My friends in the industries noted tell me the similar stories.

Plus the corrupt country that the individual chooses to
leave(read-Mexico).

Indeed.

Our borders are a walk in the country to anybody that wants to come here.
Money
should be allocated to protect our borders, period. Applebees will find
somebody to bus tables, believe me.

I agree on a system of regularization. The idea that you can slam the door
shut and nail it tight is fantasy.

to get over it.

Woody, by that rationale, we need to sortie our invasion forces immediately to
attack Iran and North Korea at a minimum. We know they have WMD, we know
they'll use them. Ergo, we go to war immediately, without anyone agreeing with
us.

No matter how frustrating it is to deal with the UN, we either use them as the
'oversight committee' for the world, or we take on the role of Big Brother for
the rest of humanity. Given that we turned out to be wrong in this case, I
imagine it will only be one or two more such incidents before we have sanctions
placed upon us, for the very reason that we put them on others.

George Bush declared Saddam would be gone. Two presidential cycles later, his
son took power and completed his father's tasking; WMD was an excuse to give
his 'change of regime' plan some validity.

As for the well-known and often mentioned chem attack on the Kurdish village -
the CIA released information that the chemicals used did not match the
fingerprint of Iraqi stocks, but did match the gas in Iranian inventory. But
since that CIA report two, three years ago, it seems to have been forgotten and
Saddam gets the blame. Did he use agents in combat? With surity - but not in
that case that seems to be ritually used to prove Bush's case against him.

I think if Bush had come right out and said, "This turd needs to get flushed
but instead of using a flimsy excuse that 80% of the world will not agree with,
I am going to finish the job my dad started," folks would have had less trouble
with his decision to unilaterally invade another country.

Are you willing to assume the real costs of health care, education, law
enforcement, etc. spent on these workers? Or are you just content to get
cheap illegal labor and let the tax-payers foot the bill for all the
city, county, and state services these people use?

Not a bad gig you got going: get the benefits of cheap labor while
making society as a whole pay the real costs.

Isn't it amazing how we ignore/revise history when politically convenient?
The Iraqi Liberation Act passed the House of Representatives by a vote of
360 to 38; the Senate vote was unanimous. Please note the content of the
Act, and, most especially, its date:

http://news.findlaw.com/hdocs/docs/i...bact103198.pdf

Where are all those big Congressional boosters today? Are they buried in a
trench somewhere above or below the WMD?

Also, the date that the House of Representatives formally commenced
investigation of a potential impeachment may be more than just a
coincidence.

Just a bit of bipartisan musing over a couple of the many "October
Surprises" in our political history...

No, Sir.

Murder is a crime "malum in se" (wrong in itself) in every culture I am
aware of. So is stealing and lying.

Crossing an artificial line is not a crime "malum in se."

When that artficial line happens to be a sovereign nation's border and

I agree it's a crime; but it's a crime "malum prohibitum" (wrong because
it's forbidden) not an act that is wrong in and of itself.

BS. What happens when he or any one of his family members get sick,
pregnant or injured? Are you saying hospital emergency rooms turn them
away? If not, who pays??

What do his school-age kids do during the day? They go to school. Who
pays for that?

When an illegal alien is involved in a crime (whether it be as a victim
or a perpetrator), who pays for the law enforcement costs? The
prosecution costs? The incarceration costs?

It's great you can find people to work their asses off on your
plantation for $50/day...but all you're doing is personally profitting
from illegal labor....while letting your neighbors pay the real cost of
that cheap illegal labor.
