The Illegal Immigrant Problem in the US
"The problem in our lack of border security and illegal immigration is becoming increasingly obvious: two political parties that are beholden to corporate America, the largest employers of illegal aliens, and the leadership of both parties that are selling out American citizens in search of cheap labor and political advantage. How dumb do you all think we are? Again, that's only a rhetorical question."
CNN does not spring to mind when one thinks either of political incorrectness or anti-multiculturalism. So when I came across this from Lou Dobbs today, I was rather suprised. I found it to be refreshing, and right on the button. See what you think...
NEW YORK (CNN) -- Reports this week that the Border Patrol is notifying the Mexican government of the locations of Minutemen volunteers are being denied by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. True or not, the Bush administration continues to follow absurd policies on both issues of border security and illegal immigration.

President Bush continues to push his guest worker program and amnesty for anywhere between 11 million and 20 million illegal aliens, and he insists still that nothing less than what he calls comprehensive immigration reform is acceptable.

And the lies keep coming from both political parties. This president is not enforcing the immigration laws enacted by Congress, and this Congress is failing in its duty of oversight to demand that those laws be followed. Dobbs to President: Do you take us for fools?

Bld:

I particularly liked this from Lou Dobbs' article.

This sums up the problem so well and so succinctly.
