It is ridiculous what free benefits illegal immigrants (and refugees for that matter) have been GIVEN in the United States. The rest of us have had to pay taxes for decades and have never been given hand outs. I for one applaud the Governor of Arizona. She has more cajones than Obama..

And that’s where the problem lies! The background checks! The criminal justice system in Mexico is extremely corrupt where even innocent people have spent years in jail. I have been involved in hiring of aliens for construction work and as long as they had a SSN and a drivers license they were considered ‘legal’ to hire. Fraudulent paperwork flooded the employment ranks so now if someone needs a drivers license you need 4 types of photo and/or positive ID wether you are an alien or not! I am not a Dumbocrat or Repugnican….I am for what’s best for the citizens of OUR United States. We need more taxpayers (although Dumbama is spending faster than we can collect it) and give everyone a chance to participate in the system..BUT NOT GIVEN AS A GIFT! but earning the right by proving oneself as the other 99% of the population has done!

We criticize them very day but cannot without them, they build our roads,landscape our lawn, do our beds in hotels, babysit our children an still, we call them criminals.Shame on those racists.Immigration reform that includes a path to citizenship is what best for all Americans and our economy, fools always say stupid things without thinking, how in the world are we going to be able to deport all of the undocumented immigrants?please respond to me with a practical way ?legalization for all undocumented immigrants who don’t have criminal record , Background check every single of them. fine them $1000.00 , give them a 5 year renewable visa have them holdit for ten years and after showing good character of a good american citizen then they can aplly for the green card if the show they stay out of trouble for the last 10 years.That’s tough and fair and humane immigration reform that this country needs not bigots call all immigrants criminals.

Let’s see if some common sense could possibly work in these parts.

Ok, you have 10 million people here “illegally” and they all have jobs. I constantly read that they are taking all the jobs so it must be true. Now by a stroke of the pen, which is all it would take, they become “legal”! Then they pay taxes just like all of the self proclaimed “Americans”.

It seems to me this country could use many more people paying taxes to help pay off the “deficit” that the “Americans” whine about daily.

Sounds like a plan. In reality, like it or not, this is exactly what is going to happen.

The problem is that Dems and Republicans
do not want to tackle this because they
are afraid of losing the Hispanic vote.
Well Marco, I don’t agree with you – I
believe Jan Brewer in Arizona happens to
be 100% correct and the Judge was not
all together right. Kiss my vote good-bye Marco. This same goes for Bill McCollum-legal immigrants in Fla. are fine-however, if they are illegal-out
they should go. Enough is enough. We can’t afford the illegals anymore-take
a good look at California-they are backrupt. The illegals get way too much
and its about time something is done
about it. They get free education and
free medical care. Are they paying taxes? They keep raising our taxes-what
are they raising from the illegals?

I was watching a report on this on channel 5 and some woman was saying if this law was passed and her father came here from Haiti and was “undocumented”, he would have to go back there. Uh yeah, I would hope so. He doesn’t have any right to be here without permission.
