How about this Bush administration is now quietly admitting that its most heavily touted weapon in pursuing ?

I want to know where the BILLIONS OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS POURED INTO HOMELAND DEFENSE are going. Where is that money? Hmmm?

ahhhh..our taxes dollars at their finest!

Ya know... this Government of ours is enough to make me start drinking (more). How can one Great Nation such as this one, have so many dumb people running it? In about a half hour, I'm going to buy some beer and get stupidly drunk. Maybe then I'll be able to make heads or tails of this Government! EDIT 4:01PM: One beer down and still not finding the logic... gonna try another. EDIT #2 5:06 PM On my 3rd. beer now and only getting more frustreated with our whole system.

I am sick of these loop holes!~ and the criminal law makers(house and senate) that allow the loopholes to remain by voting against correction, Fix the GD loopholes...it's a no brainer!!~ what is more distructive? ...the loss of tax privacy or illegal aliens 10-20 million strong?

Just one more example of the US government adopting policies that go against the law. Note these are policies not laws yet they are the policies that our civil servants follow. Border Patrol "non pursuit" policies. IRS look the other way policies. Special order 40's. Plyler v Doe. The simple fact is that it is not our immigration policies that our broken, it is our federal government that is broken. Their rules, regulations and policies do not work in concert with the law. Our politicos keep telling us we need amnesty to fix our problems. They tell us we need immigrant workers to harvest our crops. From the article cited you see this statement: "Nassif said he still believes the new rules will cripple California's $37 billion agricultural industry. About 70 percent of the state's estimated 500,000 farmworkers are illegal immigrants..." OK 70% 0f 500,000 is 350,000 workers. It is estimated that there are 12 to 20 million illegals here. What are the rest of them doing? why do we need to grant amnesty to all to get such a small percentage? All that does is guarantee you will always need immigrants to pick your crops and we will have a revolving door. Come to America, pick crops, get citizenship, go to the city and collect welfare. Stupid plan. We need to get the incumbents out of office, especially Ted Kennedy, Dianne Feinstein, Barbara Boxer, and Nazi Pelosi. We need to elect people that have common sense and that will use it to appoint federal judges that have common sense. Otherwise you end up with common sense laws that get overturned by idiot judges.. Look at Hazelton PA. Common sense laws that were overturned by an idiot that stated they didn't account for foreign relations? What does that have to do with anything?

It just goes to prove that "we the people" are going to have to be the ones who are the watch dogs. We are going to have to watch, listen and report. Also, we are going to have to drive our govt. officials nuts with our demands to support our immigration laws!!!

The Republicans' attitude on illegal immigration is downright schizophrenic. After 100 years of encouraging and exploiting mindless racism, nativism and xenophobia, they're beginning to realize that they need the votes of Hispanics to hold onto the southwest. And also that a large pool of immigrant labor keeps wages down for everyone, and Republicans LOVE cheap labor! So to hold onto their base they propose anti-immigrant legislation that sounds tough but won't work.

Imagine that being lied too by this administration. my my
