The anti-uncodumented immigrant movement is largey not just anti-undocumented immigrant, but also anti-immigrant, anti-hispanic, and anti-catholic.

There maybe some of us posters in this forum that are as you say they are, but not all of them. I am for LEGAL immigration and I have nothing against Catholics nor do I have anything against LEGAL Hispanic immigrants. My husband immigrated here LEGALLY from Mexico and he is Catholic. I on the other hand am a 15 generation American and Protestant. To me, I could careless what nationality one is or what religious group one belongs to as long as they come here LEGALLY.

I glad some country is happy with him. I think Obama likes him quit a bit, of coarse Obama is Kennedy-like. I bet he will be tough on Communism and knows well whats in the Monroe Doctrine and will work much in the expansion into North America. Wait, what about Cuba? Now thats an idea. The leader will not be in there that much longer anyway and Kennedy was trying to take it a long time ago, well just maybe Obama can pick-up where Kennedy left off.

I disagree.

Amnesties, whether presented as “guest worker programs” or other legislation, reward lawbreaking.
Historically, each time the U.S. government enacted an amnesty, illegal immigration numbers increased sharply thereafter.
The Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986 granted amnesty to 2.7 million illegal aliens. The purpose of IRCA was to lower illegal immigration. Instead, illegal immigration increased fivefold, from around 140,000 per year in the 1980s to 700,000 per year today.
Granting amnesty would allow access to taxpayer-funded services such as welfare, food stamps, Medicaid, and MediCal, for millions of illegal aliens.
One study found that the net cost to the federal government of granting amnesty to 3.8 million illegal aliens would average $5,000 per household, for a total cost of $19 billion.
Congress is currently considering offering amnesty to the estimated 12-20 million illegal aliens living in the United States.
Granting amnesty to illegal immigrants would open the door to many more newcomers, as each person granted citizenship could bring over his/her family—legally. Simply bringing the parents of each new citizen here would mean allowing another 24-40 million people to settle in the United States.
Currently, one-tenth of the flow of legal immigrants to the United States are parents of naturalized recent immigrants.
All parents of naturalized immigrants would be eligible for citizenship—and therefore also be eligible for Medicaid and Social Security benefits, for a total cost to the U.S. government of $18,000 per person.

Hopefully his brain cancer will take care of the scumbag. May he rest in peace.

every election they put him back in office, every time, he's never held a real job, how many politicians in this country have been in office, 10, 15, 20 years? it is not supposed to be like that, but the voters are apathetic, ignorant about the issues, and have such a superficial '15 second sound byte' mind, they can't figure out what to do.

Just listen to Joe Biden whose new mantra is how patriotic it is to pay higher taxes!!! WTF??? and people are agreeing!!! scary....
