I noticed one thing has been silent since the talk of te swine flu: the border.

[byzantine catholic]

What is the situation on the border? Did Obama secure the border? Is he going to prosecute businesses who hire illegal immigrants? What is going on?

[Mojotiger]

Is going to prosecute businesses who hire illegal immigrants?

He's going for amnesty so there is no such thing as illegal immigrants. He has no desire to go after businesses either.

Looks like he's continuing previous policy.

Looks like he's continuing previous policy.The previous policy was to leave the border unsecured.

[jeepers]

He's going to leave the borders open, like Bush and he's going to go for amnesty, like Reagan.

Both policies that failed.

This guy is a bigger crook than Nixon ever thought of being. In Boston they have made it mandantory to get Innocuations for the H1N1, or be fined $1,000 Here we go again more fines for not choosing the government plan.

This vaccine can cause all kinds of side effects, even paralysis of nerve endings.

[adroit]

This topic makes me so freaking angry.

Fine businesses $25,000 for each illegal immigrant they employ.

The second time they are caught employing illegal immigrants, throw them in jail.

Actually enforce it.

That would stop the hiring of illegals real fast. If illegals can't get hired, they won't come here illegally looking for jobs.

Then freaking secure our border. All of these Republicans who tout national defense, yet put more importance on issues like Iraq and Afghanistan, are freaking hypocrites.

Obama doesn't believe in Illegal Immigrants.

Unicorns, Yea but not Illegal Immigrants. :))

That's a start, what about enforcing the immigration/naturalization process that already exists in this country?

Oh wait, I know, because the illegals don't want to wait in the long lines that all of the people who are following the legal process have too.

It really has less to do with what the illegals want than what businesses and the federal government want, which is plenty of illegal workers.

"Follow the money" is a truism in politics, because it is usually true...

[JeffR]

Savage brought up the border at the start of the Swine Flu outbreaks.

But weren't you listening to that Republican IDIOT Hutchinson Christmas before last when she and her other Good Old Boy from my own state tried to ram through two hire aliens bills?

"We don't have enough Americans willing to do the work" -- nursing and computer tech -- not shoveling **** and hoeing weeds -- two high-skilled job categories to be filled by cheap alien labor rather than spending the cash to train our own folks to do the work for our own commerce and industry.....................

Microsoft and the Medical Big Business profiteering bastards demanded cheap labor they could starve to death instead of paying what the jobs are actually worth................

Because aliens DO work cheaper: it's called "minimum wage" starvation for Americans who can't get jobs to earn money unless they're BY LAW paid more than employers can afford to pay and still stay in business.

Don't you just love the basic intelligence of the Unions and their bought-and-paid for Congressional slaves? We need more money, so let's put lots of businesses out of business or force them to hire anybody except Americans................... very intelligent, foreward thinking, that is................

Especially since we then get to pick up the tab for medical care the not-Americans can't afford to pay for with the starvation below-minimum for survival they get paid ............

And get to pay for deportation -- and jail time ----- and extra LEOs to arrest the aliens who are forced to sell drugs and steal electonics and break down autos for spare parts and rip off identities to pay back the coyotes who smuggled them into the country in the first place...................

All because employers are not allowed to compete for labor at rational fair market prices................

[Guvnah]

Swine flu? It came to the USA from across the Mexican border.

Just saying...

"We don't have enough Americans willing to do the work" -- nursing and computer tech -- not shoveling **** and hoeing weeds -- two high-skilled job categories to be filled by cheap alien labor rather than spending the cash to train our own folks to do the work for our own commerce and industry.....................Hey, your nurse doesn't need to speak English right? Even on your electronic medical records - they can just put a language selection button on the opening page.

"Don't you just love the basic intelligence of the Unions and their bought-and-paid for Congressional slaves? The unions know exactly what they are doing. This is a locked in membership. This isn't being an advocate for labor that needs help.....it's importing labor that will need help so they can swell their rolls and power.
