why in the hell should some clown from another country get legal representation paid for by me when my very own brethren doesn't get the same treatment and they've been here all of their lives?

I can not say I am that upset by the whole bill itself, I'd be highly pissed if they had started
deporting everyone, but that's for another discussion.
As much as I dislike Bush, I can actually understand where he's coming from with this
(if that's not scary I don't know what is), in his own personal view, what he signed is
what he thinks is best for America, and he sees those who oppose it as going against
what he perceives as good.

Because our constitution states that all men are created equal, not all Americans, but all men - to include women. Don't like it, move else where. Your brethren do get the same treatment - name once instance in the legal system to support your claims. In fact - as a Native American you are given the luxury of self rule - something 99.9% of Americans do not enjoy.
This is a land of immigrants, and will continue to be such. Get used to it.

Looselips, you are correct in you assessment that Bush's globalistic vision for America is nightmarish. There is nothing good coming out of this for the American people, nothing.

Unemployment is at 4-5% right now. That 5% doesn't work because they choose not to, are incarcerated or they just don't have the aptitude required for even the most mundane of tasks.
But in order for the economy to expand - we need more people in the lower tier of the work force. Will you volunteer your children for such tasks in the name of our country or acknowledge the fact this needs to be done.
Right or wrong - you need it, I need it - we all need it. We just choose to believe otherwise.
Legalize them - get them paying taxes and lets move on. Really now.
Unless you are Indian (Native American) - someone before you went through the same thing.
