illegal aliens

  The "Amnesty Bill" concerning illegal immigration is legislation that is being called a "piece of s&$*" by Rep. John Boehner.  This bill would probably not pass on its own merits so we better be watchful and make sure it's not attached as an ammendment to another piece of legislation we want passed.  Mr. Boehner's assessment of the "Amnesty Bill" is correct, although I would use the word "crap" so I wouldn't be censored.  Following are the major points of this bill, which is being panned as "lousy" even by the liberal media.  

Illegal immigrants would be given legal status 24 hours after applying even if background check is not complete - and no one could do a thorough background check in 24 hours.  

 Taxpayers will pay for immigrants attorneys if they need one.  

Illegal immigrants get "temporary" visas that can be renewed indefinitely, making them essentially permanent visas.   Amnesty for gang members.  There are an estimated 30,000 immigrant gang members.  All they have to do is say "I don't want to be a gang member anymore" and their crimes are forgiven.  

Taxpayer dollars will be sent to Mexico for programs to encourage Mexicans to stay in Mexico.  That includes money for a Mexican healthplan for Mexicans and money to build schools.    read more »
