These organizations are the modenr day equivalent of the KKK: bunch of angry old white males, blaming their failures in life on "the other"...

One could easily make a video of the children of unemployed legal citizens. The children would also be crying and begging that Amer Apparel hire her mommy. They need food on THEIR table.Nope. Too Bad. Instead we'll hire people who break into our country and disobey our laws. And we'll make a one sided video of them to try to convince you that it's OK to break laws.

They omitted the language that would have implemented the E-Verify application on a permanent basis to eject illegal workers. Instead, the conference extended the agreement limits of reauthorization for just three years. Even as E-Verify is gaining in nationwide popularity in businesses, the politicians are still catering to illegal immigrants. A assessment to extend E-Verify for only three more years is further evidence that Sen. Reid and the administration's effort, to raise a façade, but all the while dismantling effectual controls against immigration invasion. So although the open border organization, headed by quasi-leadership of the Council of Foreign Relations, US Chamber of Commerce and anti American organizations such as the ACLU, La Raza didn't win in Federal Court they still determined to corrode the laws.These special interest lobbyists are well organized in the Democratic Senate and House to undermine any enforcement of immigration laws, including the 1986 (IRCA) that is a law that was never enforced. Same day Sen.David Vitter offered an amendment to sever Federal funds to SANCTUARY CITIES AND STATES, but as always they failed to observe the "Rule of Law." The vote went along party lines except for three Republicans who voted with the Democrats to table the amendment. One Democrat voted against the motion - Landrieu (LA). Even though we can throw the conspirators out, when they come up for re-election it will have little effect? Even though they lose their seats, they will be reimbursed by their corporate friends with nice civilian desk jobs, with bloated pay checks.NUMBERSUSA is an American people’s website that removes the propaganda placed on us by the Liberal press. At this location is raw evidence--YOU NEED TO KNOW--of the Democratic Leadership who is conspiring with industry, so that millions of illegal immigrants can still cross the border, so they can feed like leeches from American taxpayers and take the jobs. Everything you need to know about corrupted officials, mayor’s judges, governors and politicians is available at JUDICIAL WATCH.

Harry Reid, as he has been in the forefront of de-funding, derailing all the active laws such as 287 G. Janet Napolitano should join him on the garbage heap, along with speaker Pelosi who has an (F-) in immigration grading for enforcement. Mark your own lawmaker and drag him across the hot coals by calling 202-224-3121 Find out the buried truth at NUMBERSUSA, JUDICIAL WATCH & CAPSWEB, for overpopulation facts. They even went after Sheriff Joe Ariapo in Arizona for carrying out his duties, under the 287 G fed law. His deputies were so successful in the removal program; big business went crawling to the Democratic leaders pleading for assistance. GET THE FACTS--NOT THE LIES! REMEMBER NO TAXPAYER HEALTH CARE FOR FOREIGN NATIONALS! NO AMNESTY! NO NOTHING! THEY BROKE OUR LAWS OF SOVEREIGNTY!

I guess little Johnnie and little Emily need to just suck it up, right. You people are clueless. In helping one, you harm the other. The employers don't give a rat's behind. Neither do the countries sending these people here. The U.S. is expected to be all merciful to these people while our own do without. I haven't heard one word from any of you about the countries these people come from changing. Like Mexico increasing the taxes on their businesses so that they can provide their poor with more schools, proper roads, etc. No, it's us who you want to solve this problem. Guess what the problem was caused by the sending countries these people come from too. You're all disgusting.

Shame on CNN for keeping that monster Dobbs on the air. What is more disturbing is the way certain Congressmen have become walking stereotypes of xenophobia, hatred, and racism. I am talking about the good 'ole boys such as Senator Jeffrey Beauregard Sessions of Alabama, Senator Jim DeMint of South Carolina, Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina, Rep. Jim Marshall of Georgia, etc. A comprehensive immigration reform w/ path to citiznehsip for hard-working immigrants cannot wait any longer. No more excuses. Millions are suffering since they are being treated worse than animals in XXI c. America. My only hope is that, ultimately, racism always loses in America! Thus, a path to citizenship for the undocumented is a matter of when, not if! The way certain TV personalities (Lou Dobbs, Glen Beck, etc.) have demonized immigrants is disturbing.
