Why are Bush and the Senate in such a hurry to Pass the Amnesty Bill THIS WEEK?

Why is there such a push to pass a bill granting amnesty to over 12 million illegal aliens by this Friday? I'm afraid I don't understand the urgency. This is definitely something that the American people do not want passed and yet the Senators are ignoring the pleas of the citizens who placed them in office. Instead their intention is only to please the illegals in this country. I say end the talks on any bill regarding any form of amnesty and get busy securing our borders like they already voted to do. Big businesses working overtime?

It is of grave concern to me that this has become the most important thing to Bush and the Senate while our military are dying on foreign soil. Why don't we bring them home and let them secure our borders?

To our military: We love you and support you no matter where you go and what mission you have to serve. You are serving our country with honor by doing your duties as directed by your superiors. God bless you and God bless America!

Answer:
You have posted one of the best questions I've seen here in some time. Well-written and well-thought out. Congratulations!

I personally think they want to pass it before Americans have a chance to read it and rebel against it until after the fact. Then, it will be too late. It's all about votes. The Democrats believe that they have a lock on Hispanics and want to secure their undying and ill-informed support. The Republicans, on the other hand, are trying to do everything to undermine this tactic and are hoping to come across as the true friend of illegals. Either way, the short-sighted plan of our elected officals will destroy our values and lifestyles and the America that we've known and loved will cease to exist.
who knows what them bastrds are up too...
He speaks for big business, which depends on cheap labor. There are those in the party who are mostly opposed and may be close to finding a way to stop this.

He mayalso be bargaining it to get some Dems from say..voting to impeach him. Imigants effect certain states the most - i'd look there for exact causes.
Because the faster they can get something put through without the American people knowing and standing up against it, the less they have to listen to it. There are lots of hidden things in that bill, and he is putting pressure on the senators like never before. But...they better listen or they won't be getting votes in the next election. The American people need to check out the "super highway" connecting Mexico going through Texas up to Canada that is planned and we are paying for, along with the bringing together of Mexico, Canada, and the US as a super power. It's all in the works and will be here before you know it. And guess who will be paying for all of this?! Tax payers.
Pigs all of them, the longer this so called debate goes on the better chances that the American people will find out how they are giving away our country to the illegals and passing the bill to us. Ted Kennedy goes on and on about the poor illegals, I wish he had as much concern for the citizens of this country
bush wants a legacy and his legacy as of now is one of imcompetence and who wants to be remembered as the president that helped america become a dictatorship with the Patriot Act and made us the enemy of the rest of the world why not go down as the one that tried to make the United States the new Mexico he tried to sell our our ports and now he wants this amensty and that is what it is read the law on the books as to the fines for crossing the borders of the US illegally and you will see $10,000 for the first offense not the $5000 he proposes that they pay, he is trying with this amensty to bankrupt social security so that it can go private and help out wall street. as you know his dad raided social security to bail out his son on the savings and loan scandal
They want to create the North American Union by 2010 (as written in the CFR policy on this)
The CFR is the Council on Foreign Relations which outlined the plan for creating the NAU with Mexico and Canada and building the superhighway through the US

from Mexico - Canada. The NAU is basically a copy of the European Union. We will have the Amero as our monetary system and we will have new laws to govern us. The Constitution and Bill of Rights will be undermined. We will all be one big happy family?

There is no legal basis for this yet
Clinton, Obama, Edwards, Giuliani, Mccain, Romney and Thompson are all members of the CFR with the same goal.


It would seem different parties should have different goals. This country is headed for disaster especially because the media is shoving these candidates down our throats. The don't talk about things that are real American issues.
I personally do no believe anyone who does not enforce our borders would be able to win the presidency next year but if they pass that bill then immigration wont be a main issue anymore.

Vote for Ron Paul in 2008
Restore our Constitution.

Remember they want you to believe we are in danger by Iraq and Iran and terrorists in order to scare you into voting for them... the mainstream media will never question that. Its not a conspiracy theory its fact. We are being blindsided and if you don't open up your eyes we will lose alot of our freedoms and what makes this country great. Mine as well move to another country.
They are in a hurry because they realize our immigration system is broken. And it's not amnesty. Stop calling it that. Heavy fines, back taxes, background checks (for serious crimes), and going back to their country of origin then coming back here. Is that really amnesty? Besides, our policies towards Mexico have been unfair and racist (yes, I said it) ever since Mexico as a country was founded.

And about our military, I respect and support them too, in the sense that we should spend less on tanks and aircraft carriers within the military budget (Will those really stop terrorists? Think about it.) and more on military personnel pay and care. Also, we should bring them home right away from Iraq.
He is doing this because he is an idiot! He is a drunk and he will still not bring the troops back even if he didn't have the focus of immigration.

His focus is not bringing the troops back until he feels like it. Undocumented people, you all do realize they are NOT JUST MEXICAN PEOPLE!!!!! They are not a technical threat unless we have Al Quaida in our state or the so called weapons of mass destruct ions here... oh wait, we do.

Immigration reform is a concern because it has been neglected for years. This is not Amnesty it is immigration reform. Mexicans deserve to be here more than any of the Euroamericans who live here. Read your history books. Yeah I know you'll all say, oh we kicked your asses, no, ya' didn't you stole it! Then cheated out more land by lying out of a treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo seizing 1.7 million acres of land from the people. These people were all to be given the same rights of Natural Citizens and later against the treaty was taken out. This was act 8-10 read it! You might learn something.

If you were an immigrant an not just undocumented but someone waiting for citizenship and were a legalized resident, it takes a long time and money to become a citizen. This will help speed the process. Remember the only REAL citizens from the beginning are the Native Americans, Mayans and Aztecs. So stop all this hate and discrimination. You feel you are so superior to everyone why? Mexico welcomes people who want to live or travel to their country. NO not because they have money, because they are warm people. Americans are rude and selfish... cultureless, so sad.

Maybe this is justification for all the illegal deportation for the Repatriation Act President Hoover initiated during the 1930's. In which millions of people were deported because they were Mexican, illegal, of Mexican heritage, looked Mexican. TRUE STORY!! 60% of the people deported were Natural born citizens of Mexican descendance and were deported or as they put it... repatriated. They made this word because they asked them to leave under the impression they could return at a later date after the Great Depression, low and behold this didn't happen. They were not allowed to return. Many families were broken up, people were sent to a country they had never seen or spoke the language. Just because one is Mexican doesn't mean one speaks Spanish!
Due to Americanization during that era this was happening. It was popular for Mexican Americans in schools to not be allowed to speak spanish due to them being segregated in schools. They were not taught their own culture, heritage, history, not allowed to speak their language. When they were deported they were deported with whatever they could carry by trains and with no money. Look it up, actually here are a few links. One is a link to the story of the repatriations and the other two are a couple of stories of families who lived through it. I hope this opens your mind to how immigrants fight to live and how they are not cocroaches as even President Hoover called them. This is a type of bigot mentality that needs to change it our time. We are too advance in time to keep pointing fingers.

I mean no disrespect or insult but I was technically ilegal and by that let me tell you my story briefly. My parents were here legally but all my siblings were American Citizens. When I was to be born, my parents came to hard time and couldn't afford to pay for hospital fee's and since they NEVER depended on the government for aid they traveled to Mexico since my grandmother was a mid-wife she delivered me. So therefore I was now Mexican, and it doesn't bother me. All my family is, but we look very European very Italian or fair Spanish, well it took almost 10 years for me just to get my resident card considering I had all my siblings living here along with my parents. Who would I live with in Mexico? I wasn't a danger, all my extended family now lived legally in the U. S. No one thinks about this until they hear about it. That's why knowledge is power.

I have family in the military so I respect that, but they have not gained Citizenship, unfortunately. They have served for the country they believe in. Yet, the country does not believe in them. They strive to prove they are worth it. Still nothing is done just as many Veterans are forgotten


You do know that right?. God Bless all the innocent people in the war!
To get the NWO started!
This is a conspiracy to destroy the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
Americans will no longer have these. Americans will be ruled by a dictator! Americans will no longer have a voice. Bush has already showed that he's a dictator by not listening to the voice of the people! Bush expects to be allowed to stay in office longer to dictate to the american people like he is now!!
This is an attempt to overthrow the government. It will no longer be the USA !
These illegals will overthrow our government by being allowed to vote and thus putting in office dictators, and ending America!
I don't know, but I'm wondering if it has to do with a massive protest planned for June 14-16 in Washington DC? That will infuriate me if this rally ends up becoming a waste of time and money! Please look at the efforts by all of these anti-illegal groups who have been planning this to protest against amnesty. http://www.lframerica.com
cause is the only way TO SHUT UP your racist dirty mouth
army is protecting this country?? or just killing inocents,
as far as I know irak never declared the war to the U.S. the U>S. attacked irak. for you the U.S. is protecting other nations, but who is protecting us from the U.S.??
Our brave troops should be rewarded for following the orders of their superiors and risking their lives at George Bush's command. I would so like to see the politicians in the trenches instead of the young men of our countries' future. There are no medals that make losing your child to someone else's mania meaningful. Our troops are the greatest, our politicians the worst. Whatever happened to " We the people " they only serve their own self interests and leave the rest of America wondering, did I vote for that guy? No more hidden agendas and no more pandering for votes, let's bring our boys home in one piece and impeach the idiots that are serving their own needs instead of America's and while we're at it, let's deport the illegals!
