40,000-50,000 MORE?

who does the jobs americans wont do in canada? Canadians, and they get paid better wages to do it in safer conditions.

when Kennedy scrapped the bracero program the farmers bought cotton pickers/strippers and raised the wages of the mexican-americans who had previously had to compete with the peon labor from the south. All of a sudden we started seeing a growing hispanic middle class.

lower status americans are hurt by the low wage scale perpetuated by this bs

solve the problem by imprisoning the employers. It is already against the law.

The dems don't want to stop the stream of future voters and the republicans don't want to deprive their contributors of cheap, malleable labor.

Welcome to El Salvador del Norte, suckers.
 
I understand that they are not returning for their hearings. That's a consequence of an overburdened judicial system though in that there is a weeks/months backlog thus rather than give them a hearing right away we're forced to let them go because we can't afford to incarcerate them until the hearing.

I agree that the "how they qualify" needs to be addressed. It seems the best way is for legislation to define that rather than some government bureaucracy. Time for Congress (House and Senate) to do their jobs.

Incidentally, here is a different perspective on who these immigrants are and why they are leaving their home country:The Link
 
Texas Senator John Cornyn R and Texas House member Henry Cuellar D have presented bills in each house to change the way illegal children from countries other than Mexico are processed .
The legislation would rewrite the law to allow Central American minors be treated like those from Mexico and Canada, who can be deported more quickly. Under the plan, unaccompanied minors from any country would be able to have an immigration court hearing within seven days of their processing by Health and Human Services, and an immigration judge would be required to rule within three more days on whether the child would be allowed to stay or be deported.

The bill authorizes 40 new immigration judges to help process the cases…

The Cornyn-Cuellar bill does not strip all the protections in the 2008 law, which mandates that the Border Patrol turn over children from Central America to Health and Human Services within 72 hours of apprehension until they face immigration court proceedings. The new legislation would maintain that provision.

Any guesses on which chamber passed this and which does not even though a minority member is bringing it to their chamber?

" Do you think there is anything else bundled in the legislation that is likely drawing the ire of the Democrats? "

Did you miss the part about the bill being presented in the House by a Dem Rep? That fact didn't come from a right wing blog.
You likely wouldn't know this but Henry Cuellar is a pretty strong loyal Dem in a pretty strong loyal Dem district.
I doubt he allowed a poison pill to be included in a bill he authored.
The problem won't be in the House though, it will come in the Senate.
 
Amazing that ABC didn't find one newsworthy aspect to this crisis and didn't even mention it on their Nightly news network broadcast last night.
didn't think there was anything newsworthy about dead children washing up from the Rio Grande
or that a bi partisan bill to expedite deportation will be presented in both Chambers
or that cities counties and even a state are refusing to allow the illegals to be sent there.

BUT it was deemed newsworthy that the cruise ship that sank off Italy 2.5 years ago is being raised. That is an issue that affects all Americans.

Oh no ABC wasn't avoiding anything that might reflect poorly on BO
 
It's hilarious, as a long time member of this board, that this wasn't such a huge issue from 2000-2008, when the population of illegal immigrants went from 8.4 million to 12 million ----- an average of an additional 450,000 per year.

But then, Bush was president.

Now all of the sudden 60k children (so far this year) is a huge deal.

Y'all are so freakin' hypocritical.


U.S. drug policy/the war on drugs has turned Guatamala into a narco state with the highest murder rate in the world.

End the futile war on drugs and a huge portion of this problem goes away.
 
I think you will find most conservatives have always complained about the border problem. Now, it is at the forefront of the news so everyone is expressing their opinion about the current situation. Hardly qualifies as hypocritical even coming from someone always on the fence. No pun intended..
biggrin.gif
 
BI?
if you think conservatives in here weren't pissed by the increase in illegals during Bush etc then you weren't paying attention OR for some reason it suits your agenda to pretend we were ok with illegals flooding in then.

let me ask, are You ok with borrowing another 4 billion for these 60k?
and another 4 billion for the next 60k? Do you have a limit?

It must really deflate your angst to learn there are so many Dems, elected Dems at city county ,state and national level who are trying to stop any illegals being sent to their places.
It must for instance pain you to learn that people like the Dem Gov of Maryland is telling BO:" NO not in MY state, send them back.

As much as you'd like this to be only conservatives, those nasty xenophobic haters the truth is so many Dems Pols are speaking up and stopping BO's little plan.
Facts are tiresome things.
 
This board only archives for a few weeks I believe? Otherwise there would be epic discussions on the illegal aliens and many other topics. Not complaining, just mentioning that you won't find any previous posts because they are not archived. Right?

Change the laws or follow the current law is not too much to ask.
 
Mich
I did read that remark by the Md Gov. It was so stupid I didn't think anyone would give it any credence. I guess I was wrong.
so this dem Gov thinks the conservative people in the western part of his state are so dangerous they would harm illegals?
and based on what he " thinks" he tells BO to not send any illegals to MD?
because I guess there is only 1 facility in the whole state that could take ullegals.
Amazing he didn't offer an alternative, ya know since it is for the kids and all
There are many empty buildings are there in Baltimore. OH wait the blacks in Baltimore have already protested BO helping illegals when he won't help them.

That Gov was playing politics while getting what he wanted, which was no illegals bused to his state.

and imagine this? Reid says the bill co authored by a Dem and A rep will not get passed in the Senate.

btw Mich
How many are being sent to your town? How many did you sign up to sponsor? They need sponsors you know
 
If these 2 " reportings" are true there isn't much anyone can do to stop this
st link is a blogger in NC who was at lunch when she noticed school buses pulling into a Wal mart and Hispanic adults getting off. In her report she says they went into walmart and used EBT cards. most didn't speak English, one said they'd just arrived>
The blogger called the sheriff who knew nothing about it.
Of course there could be a reasonable explanation why city or county school buses would be busing Hispanic Adults to wal mart. so I am sure this will get straightened out.

The Link

the second link is a report that a Hotel/ resot complex down near Weslaco is being sold for 50mil to a Baptist group who got the money from us taxpayers. It supposedly will be turned into a haven for illegals teens and open in Oct
The resort does exist and we do know BO has given several charitable groups millions of dollars in the past year to care for illegal minors.The Link
These kinds of " reports' are cropping up all over. Buses arriving in the middle of the night full of illegals and no one at the city county or state level knowing anything about it.
Ask the Govs of Nebraska Oklahoma, Mass ( BO admin even lied to this Gov's office)
 
Why shouldn't every person crossing the border not receive monthly $10,000 gift cards to Walmart? (certainly not Costco or Target of course) Give them a tablet of flight vouchers as well. I guess they can buy luggage at Walmart but if not maybe they need a voucher for that as well. We know the underwear is on order but maybe they can get that at Walmart till the order is fulfilled.

Section 8 housing needs to be cleared out so we can let them live for free along with a tax refund to be sure they don't have to pay for their rightly deserved Obamacare.

How long should they have to wait till they are eligible for an Obamaphone?
 
Michtex: You need to remember, only conservatives understand the facts according to Horn6721 or is it CedarParkHorn? Oh wait, in then end they are just as emotionally blinded as what they accuse liberals of.

Horn6721- Given the trumped up fever that is driving conservatives to challenge a bus of any sort filled with people that don't look like them I'd say the Maryland Governor's concern was validated.
 
Mich
thanks for the clarification and huge kudos to that farm who did it the legal way.
Any agri biz can bring in as many workers as they want to under H2A

AS MANY AS THEY WANT TO so this is a great example of businesses following the law . and a great illustration that puts to lie that we need illegals or ' who will pick our tomatoes"/

It also is an illustration of how wary the American people have become. In this case it was a false alarm.
Was it a false alarm for the bus loads brought into Mass even as the Feds were denying it?
How about the busloads brought into Az in the middle of the night?
BTW state of Conn just said to feds, not here.

I understand the anger many blacks ad poor legal Hispanics feel when they ask, what about caring for our poor first?
 
Reid comes to mind
Pelosi another
and of course there is that idiot from Ga who says Our doors are open
BO ain't done too well either in enforcing the border

so all in all most of the elected Dems seem interested in letting as many illegals in as can cross the border into ICE agent arms.
 
Husker
You ask
'What have they done that is different than their predecessors?

Reid saying yesterday the border was secure and he won't be in favor of the Cornyn Cuellar bill that would Maybe stop this insane flood is different and dangerous

I am not sure you or anyone not close to the border or who has not been to the border in the last 6 months has any understanding of what is happening.
to be clear less than 20% of the people streaming in are actually minors.
Maybe this won't affect you much in Seattle
but I would hope you care for your country and even the needy people we have in our country. people that could use some of the help leftists are working to provide illegals but for some reason won't work to provide needy citizens

Husker
Do you think there are any young people in your area that would like to be sent to a resort down near Weslaco with 2 outdoor pools and an indoor pool, tricked out fitness center, basketball courts Wifi, puter rooms flat screens in every room and a more than a 1 to 1 staff to occupant?
