Immigration Standoff in Congress The Arizona Republic analyzes the continuing standoff in Congress over immigration NOTHING WILL CHANGE UNTIL THESE CORPORATE WHORE POLITICIANS, LIKE PELOSI AND REID JUST TO NAME A FEW, ARE THROWN OUT OF OFFICE FOR GOOD... YOUR VOTES MATTER, FOR THE SAKE OF OUR COUNTRY... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH WITH THESE TRAITORS! Posted by: American Me on May 12, 2008 01:36 PMAnyone who dismisses e-verify as a necessary tool against illegal immigration and fraud is obviously knee-deep in the exploitation and profiteering that come w/ cheap labor and high profits! Posted by: takn on May 12, 2008 01:43 PMThe House Democratic leadership continued its assault on immigration enforcement at a May 6 House Ways & Means Subcommittee. This is the time to push aside Democratic leadership's plan for rigged hearings, as well as their larger plan to grant legal work permits for millions of illegal aliens currently holding jobs and huge increases in H-2B and H-1B visas for all types of foreign workers. CONTACT THESE TRAITORS, AND TELL THEM TO ENFORCE THE LAW, AND STOP SELLING US OUT, OR THEY`LL BE OUT OF A JOB AS WELL. VOTE ANTI-INCUMBENT! More B S! The democrats just want the illegal aliens to milk taxpayers for free benefits. If they want to represent illegal aliens instead of American citizens, why don't Pelosi and Reed move to Mexico? Posted by: Rick S on May 12, 2008 03:38 PMHow hypocritical can the Democratic Party be? People like Howard Berman, Nancy Pelosi, Boxer, Feinstein, Zoe Lofgren,letc. are supposed to be for the American working stiff. We know the Republicans are totally clueless when it comes to the working class. But these Democrats have been selling out the blue collar and working class Americans on this illegal immigration issue for years now. As a long time Californian taxpayer I would like to thank the above snakes in the Demcratic Party for the enormous taxes I have paid to this state and yet can't drive on decent roads and have parks, schools, and public places overrun by illegal alien and other gangs. Your doing a fine job Nancy--in continuing to destroy California. Posted by: Bobby on May 12, 2008 04:53 PMW NEED TO PUT MOR PRESSURE ON THE LEADERS OF THE HOUSE AND SENATE. LETS TIE UP THEIR PHONE LINES ND MAKE THEM REALIZE THAT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Posted by: ALOHA on May 12, 2008 05:24 PMVote all of the pro illegal bms utof office. Tell thm to get a real job. Posted by: ALOHA on May 12, 2008 05:31 PMEVEN MOST THE DEMOCRATS THAT HAVEN'T SIGNED UP TO THE SAVE ACT PROBABLY WANT IT TOO But Obama and Clinton [their babes], with campaign finance bribe money want amnesty, so they keep their mouths shut. We need campaign finance reform desparately in America, but you have to blame the populist voters on that issue, they put it really low on the list in error. Perhaps blame mainstream media for lack of credible information on it too though, brainwashing the voters in apathy. Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 12, 2008 06:05 PMCONGRESS, Independent voter, why do you care about H1 visas when you and your couch potato buddies are not having the needed skill levels for those jobs anyways? Skilled workers on H1 and L1 are paying large sums for years into your SS and Medicare funds and if we have to leave this country we cant take that money back or see benefits we paid for. We are supporting your lazy lifestyles and healthcare for your parents, grandparents, schools for you kids and so many things. It is you and your kind who are eating our money, so stop BSing around. Hey H1 bee I have my own business, and I would never hire a foreigner (who can barely speak english, and you have to redo their work 2 or 3 times too get it rite). I can use H-1B, bit never ever will, because it`s a scam and everyone familiar with it knows that. I will always hire an American worker, because the propaganda you hear that we need more hi-tech foreigners is a bunch of B.S. That`s for the greedy big business and the corporate slave politicians. Posted by: Independent Voter on May 13, 2008 03:45 PMH1 Bee No thanks for your contributions. You are taking much more away with over-population and lack of respect for the host nation. And I am very sure you will stick around here for the SS/Medicare too. Lazy voter Posted by: MS on May 14, 2008 09:26 AMTo H1 Bee, there are plenty of qualified applicants for those H1B jobs. Any employment agency could fill them all in a week. We ALL know that it's just companies wanting cheap labor. Obviously, you are inly in this country to take an American's job, not because you like Americans or our culture. Please leave and don't come back. Posted by: Dave A on May 14, 2008 11:39 AMWhy are some employers complaining about E-Verify? Because E-Verify makes it easier to hire American Workers before foreign workers! Isn't that "the way we like it?" Those that hire American citizens find it easy and accurate with only about 1% rejected. But those employers operating on the fringe by avoiding American workers and looking for cheap labor (foreign workers with green cards and illegal immigrants) find it difficult because they cause delays and have a much higher rejection rate of about 7%. About 5% of all E-Verify rejections are received by persons who are not work authorized. Of these most either choose not to contest the rejection or indicate that they will contest the finding but then fail to follow through. Now we know why critics dislike E-Verify so much. H1 Bee, You have no idea what you are talking about. First the H1B Visa is only supposed to be used for labor shortages in mostly tech fields. The worst kept secret is there are no labor shortages here. H1B Visas are only used to try and push out more profits at the expense of the American Worker. The only way your argument could hold water is it was only a small hand full of Americans being replaced by H1B Visa holders but instead it's tens of thousands of Americans being replaced so companies can meet unrealistic profit targets in a given quarter so the CEOs and Execs can get their outrageous bonuses. This is about greed plain and simple. I have yet to meet an H1B Visa holder who was more qualified than the 100's of Americans / fellow co-workers I've seen laid off of the last several years. Most don't have the knowledge, experience or both needed for long term goals. Usually their language and communication skills are lacking and it takes five times as long to get anything done. Brian Posted by: Brian on May 14, 2008 01:18 PMStick it where the sun doesn't shine, H1 Bee! Americans are putting out billions to support illegals who come here. If you're so concerned about your benefits, then why don't you stay in your own country? Why do you continue to come here, if we are so bad and your countries and people are so great? No one here thinks H1B workers are all they are cracked up to be, anyway. Most might have skills, but no better than the ones Americans have, and most of them don't understand our standards and way of doing things, anyway. This country wasn't built by couch potatoes or workers like you, so hush up, OK? Posted by: Born American on May 15, 2008 12:16 PMNO AMNEST: I WANT TO KNOW WHAT AGREEMENT ASK HILLARY, SINCE SHE RUNNING, AND SHE HAD HER HANDS IN THIS, AND BILL HANDS OUT FOR HIS LITTLE PAYMENT, AS IN CASH? Posted by: SUSAN MARIANO on May 16, 2008 01:26 PMATTN: SOMEONE,FROM WHO KNOWS SOMETHING? Health Care for Detained Aliens The Washington Post and other media are currently focused on the issue of (FAIR Comment: Another contextual issue not dealt with in the Washington Post series so far (2 of 4 installments have appeared) is whether the alien detainees are receiving the same care as non-alien prisoners (or better or worse) and whether the aliens would have had the same medical problems had they not been in detention and whether, in that case, they would have received better medical attention.) Washington Post article | New York Times article Ship them to Mexico without a hearing and let the Mexicans worry about health care! Posted by: Rick S on May 12, 2008 12:27 PMWP AND NYT: OPEN BORDER RAGS! Posted by: American Me on May 12, 2008 01:33 PMAnd have they focused on how many Americans may have died because services or resources were not available because they are increasingly strained by our obligations to care for those who have no legal right to be here! Posted by: takn on May 12, 2008 01:38 PMHow about the left wing media does a report on how many Americans are killed or raped by illegal aliens. Posted by: Independent Voter on May 12, 2008 01:57 PMI agree with independent voter. Posted by: ALOHA on May 12, 2008 05:28 PMA BIG BUNCH OF BUSES WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM Finger print 'em after deportation and make it the death penalty if they return. Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 12, 2008 05:58 PMLet's talk about the issue of inadequate or inappropriate medical care of our veterans first, and then maybe, just maybe Americans will be willing to address the issue of inadequate or inappropriate medical care of these criminal aliens. Posted by: melena29 on May 13, 2008 08:17 AMHow many American citizen prisoners die each year from diseases illegals bring to the prisons? Posted by: CoolGary on May 13, 2008 10:11 AMI wouldn't mind paying for 'healthcare' for detained aliens - IF - it was limited to necessary urgent care given with the understanding that they were going back right now to their rightful country where they will receive any needed ongoing care. Posted by: Bill Dexter on May 13, 2008 01:16 PMSchool is almost out. Every school district in the nation has a fleet of buses. Why not start using them if they are sitting idle - fill them with illegals and start toward the border. Give them plenty of water and box lunches. I'll offer my state of Texas to be the first in the country to start a bus brigade. Get them aross the border and let Calderon worry about them. Let's save a few for Bush, McCain, Johnny Sutton and all the Congess persons who are pro-illegal. Posted by: June on May 13, 2008 03:17 PMMillions of Americans are without healthcare and don't get their needs taken care of, and idiots in this country are worrying about detained illegals. Sick, downright sick. Posted by: Born American on May 13, 2008 07:32 PMWe should use the money allotted for foreign aid to pay these costs before giving ANY money to a foreign government. Paying for foreigner's health-care is afterall foreign aid. Posted by: Dave A on May 14, 2008 11:42 AM53 Illegal Aliens Found Captive At Phoenix Drop House "Fifty-three illegal immigrants found Sunday had been held against their It is unbelievable that a bunch of scum bag politicians are actually prohibiting legislation like the SAVE ACT and E-VERIFY to become permanent law. These politicians are putting another layer of poverty, disease, and crime on an economy that is now in recession and headed for a 1929 depression. How in God's name can they do this to the American people??? These people are Quislings taking The United States of America into a third world cesspool. Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and that bag of garbage in the White House are doing this to The United States of America----and----coming up next year,no matter who it is, it looks like more of the same. It appears to me that The United States of America is being controlled by a small cabal of very wealthy predators who control all three candidates for President. The object,,,destroy the middle class of The United States of America, and set up an elite ruling class,,,,,,,with the rest a bunch of docile, servile, cringing peasants. A POLICE STATE------ Posted by: T. Jamieson on May 12, 2008 11:58 AM OK! The article only ended saying, "The rescued immigrants were turned over to U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement". It does not say whether they were being deported, sent to work at Taco Bell or McDonalds or whether the "suspected smugglers" were caught or if they let them go free "for lack of evidence" or what. What good is part of the story? JORGE BOOSH`S AND JUAN McAMNESTY`S GOOD HEARTED FOLKS... Posted by: American Me on May 12, 2008 01:31 PMPlease tell me why our government does not make this crime punishable w/ life in prison? Exploiting humans for profit and servitude is shameful. Posted by: takn on May 12, 2008 01:36 PMWHERE'S FOX AND ABC CAMERAS ON THIS STORY? Oh, that's right, human slavery stories aren't in line with their diversity with overpopulation brainwashing. Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 12, 2008 05:54 PM"CLOSE THE BORDERS, SEND THEM ALL HOME. LET CALDERON TAKE CARE OF HIS PEOPLE. This is really bad news for Reed, Bush, Pelosi and McAmnesty. Now these illegals can't take jobs or get benefits paid for by American citizens. Posted by: Rick S on May 13, 2008 11:03 AM |
