Quote from slapshot:
You are such a rabid, ignorant left-wing moron. This is pure proof once again that anytime you want to know the facts about anything, just look to the exact opposite of what a liberal blame-pointer says and there lies the truth.
You bleeders are the master liars when it comes to failed social experiment/entitlement giveaways and then turn around and try to blame the other side for the horrible damage you have inflicted on this country after several decades of "progress".
It has been social policies stuffed into our system (at both State and Federal levels) almost entirely by Democrats that has led to the huge social net and citizenship rights for children of illegals born here.
I live in a border state with Mexico. It has ALWAYS been liberals that have blocked EVERY SINGLE conservative attempt to reign in immigration and socialist benefits for people who barely produce.
The so-called greedy Right would never give ultra-expensive free emergency-room care, education and tens of thousands of dollars per year in direct and indirect benefits to each illegal here. This has been a purely Democratic boondoggle.
Illegals are not high-producers, in fact they are the worst workers productivity-wise. They barely speak the language, only show up when they want to. Many are lazy or criminal. An employer has to hire extra spanish-speaking foremen that can manage them. There is a higher incidence of workplace theft and waste because they don't really care about the buisness nor do they really have any opportunity to advance. They are always the employee of last resort for any smart business.
If anything, Republicans would want to bus them in/out on a guest worker program as cheaply as possible. They certainly don't aspire to give them social programs and entitlements.
Where they have failed is allowing Dems to pack social pork into legislation, if anything they have sold out their principles to compromise with the left on this issue.
Right now you have Obama and some socialist left-winger Governors suing Arizona for trying to get immigration under control!
So why don't you accept the reality that it is the Democrats that want to expand their power and political base by pandering to the people of color in the US that have relatives affected by immigration reform?

Bush Amnesty Plan Raises Immigration Concerns
The massive new immigration initiative unveiled by the White House has Democrats and ethnic identity organizations accusing Republicans of election-year pandering, and has the Republican base wondering whether George W. Bush and the Republican Party has sold them out.
The initiative, which draws heavily on legislation already introduced in Congress by three Arizona Republicans, Sen. John McCain and Rep. Jeff Flake and Rep. Jim Kolbe, has two central components. It would provide a mechanism by which some U.S. businesses would be able to import an unlimited number of low-wage foreign workers, and it would allow most of the roughly 10 million illegal aliens already in the United States a means by which they (and their extended families) would be able to remain legally -- and permanently -- in the United States.
