When will working class Republicans wake up to the fact that it is primarily their own Republican businessmen who are creating the problem by hiring undocumented workers to drive down labor costs to increase their personal fortunes. Desperately poor people will naturally try to live a better life. Why be angry at them? Be angry at the cause which is unscupulous business practices. It's what happens when business operates without effective governmental oversight. It is an age old tactic for corporate owners to get workers to squabble amongst themselves so they don't focus on the real problem.

Well that explains why nobody in government is doing anything about illegal immigration...

Hell, why have borders at all? Let's just open up the whole country to anyone who wants to come in and eliminate the paper altogether?

I’m so sick of the hypocrisy in both parties that I just simply don’t care who comes in. If Mexicans and South Americans want work, give ‘em a job. If they don’t want to learn the language, then we don’t communicate with them. If an Islamic extremist slips in undetected, then I guess we fight them here.

Let’s all just have one big group hug, go into our corners and let the shit fly.

I have to say that this administration is shooting itself in the foot (and THAT would be a first, right?). If they make all these illegal immigrants legal, the workers will have rights and may not accept the crap wages they are currently being paid. Then EVERYONE is unhappy.

Steve King is obviously a liberal pantywaist who supports terrorists and hates America. Oh, and he can expect the G.O.P. to spy on him from now on, and to funnel monies to his opponent on the sly if he runs for re-election.

Not surprising. Consider the source tho-Washington Times isn't that the conservative mouthpiece owned by Rev. Moon?

As long as anyone who wants to provide jobs at crappy wages/benefits and there are people who can fill them they'll find a way to get to those jobs, illegal, undocumented, and otherwise or not. Government AND private industry are both guilty.

I find it so hard to believe that people who support illegal immigration cannot see any downside to it. As far as I am concerned if Kennedy and Bush are for it, by definition that has to mean trouble. They represent both extremes of America, the Business first crowd and the melting pot is half full crowd, they are both so very wrong. Case in point: here in Minnesota roofing used to pay $11.50/hr back in the 80’s, and was done by low income, disadvantaged, often minority Americans, now in 2007 the same job pays $6.50-8.50/hr and it is almost all illegals from Mexico. Now keep in mind the home owner is still charged the same $3k-10k to have the roof done, so where does all that extra savings go, to the business owner. Usually a fat white troll who is more than happy to take advantage of all concerned while making a hefty profit. Is this what the open borders people want, I don’t get it? Mexico is not poor, it just needs some civil unrest to restore the power to the people! And in the US we need to reduce the number of workers so that unions, individuals and companies that play by the rules get rewarded not punished.

The bottom line is that those who employ illegal immigrants are doing so deliberately because they want to pay crap wages for jobs most people don't want to do.

There is nothing wrong with a company making profit providing it is made without exploitation. I think we can safely assume that there isn't a single illegal immigration who is being paid a fair wage.

"Top GOP Leader: Bush Employs Thousands Of Undocumented Workers"

--------------------------------

well I guess ad revenues are more important than honesty.

this headline is ridiculous.

Baby Bush to F-Thee Cheney: "God-damnit, Dickie, we are running out of targets for our Iraq adventure!" F-Thee Cheney Responds: "Not to worry, Baby! I am recruiting in Mexico for more targets! We will just bring across the border and ship them to Iraq! I will even send my wet-back maids!"
p.s. F-Thee Cheney is a dedicated Halliburton Warrior! Jeffy Gannon, Ace White House Press Reporter

With the influx of all those illegals they will drag down our way of life and then we will like Mexico sooner or later. Enough if we get the
legal aliens and incorporate then into our
system but "illegal." Our ancestors were all
LEGAL.

This is proof that there really is a God. Huffington Post is using an article from the conservative Washington Times and quoting conservative Duncan Hunter, who hits the nail on the head.

This President and the likes of Trent Lott, Teddy Kennedy and John McCain are doing virtually nothing to stop the flow of illegals who are taking jobs, using up taxpayer dollars on public services, taking up space in emergency rooms, and killing or murdering at least 2,500 American citizens yearly.

Hello?? These are UNDOCUMENTED WORKERS, not illegal immigrants. There's a big difference, you looney libs.

Besides, they're doing work you lazy libs refuse to do. Like driving President Bush around in his golf cart.

Young Republicans like me employ them all the time to drive us around to our monthly meetings.

I don't see what the problem is. Bush is pro-migrant workers. He employs migrant workers. Very non-hypocritical for a change.

This makes me wonder how bad our data infrastructure is if we can't filter out illegals when they apply for a federal job. I am sure we don't make the same mistakes when looking for terrorists entering the country...glad the Adminstation has that all nailed down and made this a centerpiece of their GWOT.

Gee, "Do as I say, not as I do."

Shocking.
