"The only thing we are looking for is to end this dehumanizing situation and get the recognition of the migrant labor force," Federal Deputy Maria Garcia said. "People who go looking for work should not be treated like criminals with the risk of being tried in federal courts."

Seems that they have a bit of clean-up to do in their own fcuking back yard before lecturing others about the treatment of illegal immigrants. Bastards!

How can a 'lawmaker' support an illegal activity? Seems to be a contradiction in terms.

Do they think that because people duck immigration and get themselves a job, that they have any right to stay?

According to the Mexican gov't: In the US, yes. In Mexico, no.

90% of the Democrats in this country support the illegals here and want amnesty and are against laws to curb all of this.

About 30% of Republicans agree.

Yet a vast majority of Americans are fed up and want massive change. Will the politicians listen. No way in hell.

Cheap votes vs. cheap labor. Different political parties...same old sh*t.

Just remember who has majorities in both the House and Senate, plus a sitting President. And I'm not stating this as a registered Republican or Democrat (I'm an independent voter). I'm looking at who does what rather than party affiliation. And I'm looking real hard at what my House Rep and 2 Senators are doing...now.

Just remember that on Bush's watch this problem has worstened and it was no accident.
