Let's face it, there is a high demand for cheap labor all across the country and the illegal immigrants are filling that demand, they are not here trying to destroy american society, they are here trying to feed their families.

I wrote a long article on how soem way to get rid of this problem. I decided not to post it cause it maybe offensive to some.
The Senate did an abrupt about-face yesterday, voting overwhelmingly to begin paying for 370 miles of fencing and 500 miles of vehicle barriers on the U.S.-Mexico border, just three weeks after voting against the same spending.
The amendment's sponsor said senators were so embarrassed by that July 13 vote that most felt they had to reverse course and vote for it this time -- especially after so many were on record in May voting to build the fence in the first place. The amendment, which provides nearly $2 billion for the project, passed 94-3, with 66 senators switching from "no" to "yes" votes since last month.
