it's so easy to check the facts, i'm surprised more people don't do it before posting.


I'm not the one whom claimed Bush wasn't a right winger.. Talk to bj about the polls..  :rolleyes:

Even if Bush did deserve to be removed from office, impeachment would not accomplish that. It would also require the Senate going through their proceedings and there probably isn't enough time left in Bush's term to accomplish both. Waste of time and money at this point.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Only having 73% of your OWN party is problematic in itself--there's MANY things he's angered his base over--immigration at the top

68... you are correct..  I did write it as if "one".

I meant "none"  I am sorry for the confusion.  I have said as much in the past tho...  if neither of the parents is a citizen then the baby is not.

If one of them is... they have the choice.   but... if one of the parents was a citizen then they probly both would be as marriage makes you one.

as for work visas....

I am speaking of the only work that the illegals can do and the work that is often touted as "work Americans will not do"

That is seasonal farm labor.

It was done as I said decades ago.. only the workers came for the season... often that was man and wife.... they left after the season was over.   they lived on the farmers land in housing that was not fit for families in any case and they were all well past school age.

sorry about the mistype with the parent thing.

No need to swim across. Us Texicans built a bridge across "our" river. We needed a way to easily cross, get through OK on our way to Kansas in search of something exciting.

68Wooley, I'm sorry, I should have made a statement at the beginning of my post: That this is my opinion of how our immigration should work.

IMHO, these are loopholes that should never have been allowed to be open. Immigration should be channeled through the INS, period.
