Its a two-fer!

“Those determined to find fault with this bill will always be able to look at a narrow slice of it and find something they don’t like,” the president said. “If you want to kill the bill, if you don’t want to do what’s right for America, you can pick one little aspect out of it.”
The President of the United States of America, George W. Bush

Fuck you, asshole.

And just because I can, I’m throwing some more gas onto this fire.
“A lot of Americans are skeptical about immigration reform, primarily because they don’t think the government can fix the problems,” Bush said.
“And my answer to the skeptics is: give us a chance to fix the problems in a comprehensive way that enforces our border and treats people with decency and respect. Give us a chance to fix this problem. Don’t try to kill this bill before it gets moving,”
“You can use it to frighten people,” Bush said. “Or you can show leadership and solve this problem once and for all.”
The President of the United States of America, George W. Bush
OK. Listen up, buttercup. You, and your administration, and the administrations of the eight presidents before you, have failed to solve this problem. It has now gotten to the point where some folks will settle for anything that looks like it fix this problem.
I am not one of them. You got that, numbnuts?
First, I want the border sealed: South first, north second. This includes a minimum of 50K new border agents per border, with firearms.
Next, I want real criminal penalties for these real criminal infractions. No “fines”. No slaps on the wrist, welcome home, hombre bullshit. This especially includes the people who knowingly employs them. Take every fucking thing they own. Leave their kids destitute. I don’t give a shit. If the illegal immigrant will not give up their employer, we will assume it is Al Qaeda or Castro and treat them as such.
Third, I want a six month grace period for the above. Anyone who has not pointed themselves out within that period gets rounded up, fingerprinted, photgraphed, DNA sampled and sent the fuck home. I don’t care if this is six people or Six Million people. The Dems want a fucking jobs program for the illiterate spawn they churn out of their favored public school system, here it is. If the illegal immirgant comes back, they go to the northern border and they help build the fence to pay for their room and board while they work. Then, they get sent back home. If caught again, they will be treated as an enemy combatant. They are warned of this when we cut them loose the second time.
Fourth, I want a record search for all the welfare bennies paid to each of these people. Health care, school, food, shelter, etc. It gets itemized and a dollar figure is assigned. They cannot apply for citizenship until this is paid back.
This is a minimum. If I had more time, I could probably come up with a couple more, sensible, easy to implement, cost effective, solutions you and your asshole friends “forgot”.
Your proposal does none of those things. Your proposal is amnesty, pure and simple, and the American people know this. You half-assed Social Security, giving it a minisule portion of the gumption you’re giving this asinine proposal. Now you’re calling us, the people who supported your party through thick, pork filled budgets and polls as thin as pisswater beer, America-haters? Have you lost your fucking mind? Count yourself one lucky asshole that I had to work a 14 hour shift, peckerwood. I’m too fuckin’ tired to write any more and I’m fucking tried of this bullshit.
You want a solution to illegal immigration, you know where to find me. Stop being a politician for one minute and think about this. You know you’re wrong. That’s why you’re pissed that no one is buying this.
One thing you need, and one that’s just good to have:
-first, if you’re going to hammer employers (which I agree with) you have to give them a way to verify-basically, something like NICS. Anyone who comes up as not kosher on the NEECS (National Employment Eligibility Check System) is automatically reported to both ICE and the IRS (they may just be playing tax fraud games.)
-second, not totally necessary, but still a good thing: smackdown all the local governments, like Seattle, SF, and NYC, with their ‘sanctuary laws.’ Laws like that means you give up all eligibility for federal funding, period.
I’M SO PROUD OF YOU AND AGREE WITH EVERY SINGLE THING YOU’VE SAID ………….
Also know you speak for everybody I know – from Florida, Montana, South Dakota, Arizona and finally Texas (let me tell ya – especially Arizona and Texas)!
I agree, I agree – and with Heartless Libertarian and Mom too.
I would like to add California to your moms list.
Pretty much works for me.
I agree with most of what you say, but I think 100,000 extra Border Patrol is excessive. If we go after employers as hard as you suggest (which I wholeheartedly agree with), the incentive to come here is pretty much removed and I don’t think we’d need that many. Maintaining a force that large won’t be cheap.
I wholeheartedly agree. But I would add one more good step:
Amend the constitution to repeal birtright citizenship, or make birthright citizenship contingent on the legal resident status of both parents.
The thought that two people can leap the borders, and despite their illegal status, produce a child with full citizen status is completely insane.
