Republicans for Impeaching President Bush

[SDowner]

I waited patiently, jumped thro all the hoops, did things the right way and got my GC after 6 years.

I am educated, pay my taxes, contribute to this society, do not hide my income, etc. (Maybe I should)

Why should people be rewarded for just their proximity to the US and illegal access across the border? Having oceans to cross has just made immigration control easier with other countries.

There definitely is a human face to the immigration problem, it is multifaceted, and very difficult to start addressing, but this piece of legislation does not even begin to address the problem at its grass roots.

and on the other hand, any time america’s foreign intervention causes mass population displacement in other countries, we dont give a rats ass.

why are mexicans crossing the border in such great numbers?

what can mexicans do for themselves in their own country?

how would america react to a nationalist, socialist mexico?

how does america feel about venezuela?

Comparing foreign policy to domestic immigration policy is faulty at best.

Reforms need to be realistic and systematic in implementation. The bill that failed to pass has some major flaws. It was political grandstand at its best.

Get really to see 100,000 to 200,000 Iraqi refugees coming to America. There are now 4,000,000 refugees? All caused by our intervention. They didn’t leave their country under Saddam and now they are fleeing for their lives. We brought freedom, huh? Good job!@#

It’s our responsibility and we’ll have to accept the largest share of refugees.

SDowner, think of it in broader terms. We are all one human race. Some people have it hard, some other have everything handed to them on a silver plater. Don’t you think that the hardship of toiling for years as illegals is enough paying of the dues?

Yes, I agree with you on that. I am trying to look at it in a broader sense. I am against Iraq invasion. (Dont want to hijack this thread into any other path)

I am a first-generation immigrant. Nothing has been handed to me on a silver plater. I can understand the need to fix this problem of illegal immigration, their exploitation by employers, the political motives behind the 2 parties trying to take advantage of the situation for their gain just before election time. I do not have a very good grasp of things, yet. Still learning.

One thing was clear. This bill would have been a “quick fix”, leading to demoralization of lot of folks who are waiting in line for GC. Yes, I am biased, but I have been thro the process and I personally know lot of people inside and outside the country waiting for GC. We hold it in very high regard, american citizenship. I dont understand why America would treat it so flippantly.
