Just curious are you an American Indian. If not then either you or your Ancestors came from some other country other than the U.S., or you are a Bigot.

This Country was built on the backs of immigrants and where they could have rights and freedoms that all humans should have. And it is a place where many come to try and escape poverty and oppressive governments. That is what the constitution was written for.

Now since reading your post I am assuming that since you have the luxury of being a U.S. citizen and do not have to worry about the things some of the other people of the world do. That you just say to hell with them I have what I want and deserve and they do not deserve the opportunity to have what I have.

As far as I am concerned you can go live in one of the countries of these people you have so Little regard for. There you can live in a elitist society where the government controls everything. Because that is where your attitude belongs. Not in a country that was based on peoples rights and freedoms.

So maybe we should start a petition and send it to our government Representatives that says all people who do not believe others have rights should have there citizenship revoked and exiled from the U.S.

So if you haven't guessed what my opinion of your post is yet. Let me make it perfectly clear.

YOU CAN STICK IT WHERE THE SUN DOESN'T SHINE

I agree completely. Even felt the need to quote it

I can only conclude that neither of you bothered to read the "background link" I provided ( http://www.firesociety.com/article/11979/?=src111 ) that explained extremely clearly what most of the pitfalls of the proposed bill would be and how glaringly un-fair it would be - not just to legitimate American citizens, but to the very same potential immigrants who have been striving to enter this country - legally - in some cases for years.

Please - continue to live in your personal fantasy-lands. If you can't recognize bad legislation when it jumps up and bites you in the ***, there's literally no hope for you -especially when all you have to do is read it to see it.

The whole "let's legalize the illegals" movement is itself driven by greed - the greed of the government for more tax money and votes from all those grateful aliens; the greed of corporations looking for "legitimate" ***** labor.

If you don't care to accept the fact that this will (1) send public assistance and educational costs through the roof; (2) result in the even sooner-than-expected demise of our Social Security benefits; (3) drive wages down in all sectors of the job market (because it can, and will); (4) WILL result in the more-rapid formation of the "North American Union" (which will effectively remove our sovereignty as an individual nation) - then more power to you.

It is cowardice in the extreme not to face these facts - to attempt to turn it into some tear-jerk soap opera about the poor, oppressed illegal immigrants is pathetic.

Seems Ted Kennedy will be introducing the Senate version - you all ought to feel right at home supporting slime like him.

Have a good evening. Pete
