You know I'm all for immigration reform and not the "make em all citizens type either"..I think E Verify can be a good system..I hate Pelosi...and most of my friends are conservatives...but when I see people making assinine statements about building the democratic voting roles, 2nd amendment, etc. I question their real motives. I'm with Spence on this..this isn't the vehicle for immigration reform; this is an emergency measure to get the economy on it's feet...and we want to include homeland security in a vetting process..they've done such a great job on the "do not fly list". Regarding the source of the article..I guess they must be wrong if they're from the "left" coast. And of course the fact that Obama is also FOR this system didn't quite get your attention and that major Business and Labor groups are concerned that it's got faults that need to be worked out before it's put into a MANDATORY format doesn't concern anyone?
Being involved in putting together stimulus ready project listings for a large local community I'm aware that the program is designed to provide a large percentage of construction and infrastructure funding for "Shovel Ready" projects that can be up, running and hiring within 180 days. How can you question the immediate effective impact of the stimulus bill on one hand while on the other hand asking for inclusion of a provision that can only delay the implementation. You want to hang employers who knowingly hire illegals...I'l get the rope...send illegals back to where they came from..I'll volunteer my boat...but don't confuse efforts to fast track our economic recovery by adding in measures that will require a "gearing up" period.
Soapbox yielded to my conservative friends!
