If immigration reform fails this year, it could be because the GOP has pledged to work against everything the Democrats try to do, even if our country needs it. We must hope the GOP does not win many seats in November, it will be even worse if that happens. - - Donna Poisl

Sen. Lindsey Graham has long been a thoughtful and constructive legislator. But the South Carolina Republican made a statement last week that showed why Washington is losing the public's trust and his party in particular is losing its sense of duty.
Graham had joined with Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to present a well-reasoned outline for immigration reform that, while not as historic as the health care bill just passed, may have as much impact on who we are as a country.
Then Graham threatened to walk away from his own proposal.

This country was built by immigrants, it will continue to attract and need immigrants. Some people think there are enough people here now -- people have been saying this since the 1700s and it still is not true. They are needed to make up for our aging population and low birthrate. Immigrants often are entrepreneurs, creating jobs. We must help them become Americans and not just people who live here and think of themselves as visitors. When immigrants succeed here, the whole country benefits.

Illegal Immigration population Armageddon
American voters must start throwing out of office Politicians, Governors, Mayors, Judges (liberal oriented who administers laws from the bench) , city councils or any elected official that caters too the illegal alien invasion. Whereas California needs the candidate for Governor Steve Poizner, who is running on the platform to deny illegal aliens any government benefits and will place a ballot measure to get illegal aliens out of California. He's not perfect, but he is far superior ideology than Whitman or Brown? But we must boot from office Sen.Harry Reid, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Lindsey Graham, Sen. Join McCain just to name a few of chronic anti-sovereignty legislators. All can be exposed for their awful immigration records at NUMBERSUSA Corruption is rampant in Washington, that is displayed at JUDICIAL WATCH.
They keep repeating the--SAME TIRED NUMBER--10 MILLION--but the US border Patrol in just the Tuscon sector, expressed, "Only one out of ten is caught." The Tucson sector Border Patrol union local 2544 on the number of illegal aliens in our nation: "There are currently 15 to 20 million illegal aliens in this country by many estimates, but the real numbers could be much higher and the numbers increase every day because our borders are not secure (NO MATTER WHAT THE POLITICIANS TELL YOU-DON ' T BELIEVE THEM FOR ONE SECOND) Said a Spokesman for the Border Patrol. "Our illegal immigration numbers are based on an estimated twenty million illegal aliens having been present in our nation as of -JANUARY 1, 2004."almost four million people crossed our borders illegally 2002" end of quote.
This is a cruel trick on every honest taxpayer is this first generation of newly legalized immigrants, could escalate with thousands bring in brothers, sisters, Mothers and Fathers. By the year 2040 the population of America could be unsustainable with limited resources, water shortages, highways crammed to capacity and a infrastructure that is falling apart. THOSE INTERESTED-THE HISTORY CHANNEL IS ONCE AGAIN TELEVISING "The Crumbling of America." This Friday observe the depreciating bridges, dams, levees and 50 year old underground system of sewage in some areas. Our Survival is in peril, but they do not enforce immigration laws. Well-documented, the 100.000 pro-amnesty protest on Sunday and the last two months of PR build-up across the country was backed by tens of millions of dollars from George Soros (Socialist-Marxist Billionaire), Carnegie Foundation, Ford Foundation and the giant SEIU unions.
