#1 Jim Gilchrist - President '08.

No more problem.

#2 A Los Angeles attorney brought into the case by the Mexican Consul General's Office in Phoenix filed another motion claiming Thomas and Arpaio are violating state and federal law and are using the conspiracy charges to control illegal immigration, which is the federal government's job.

The Mexican government as no standing in this matter, as they have abdicated control of their side of the border.

(IMHO, they're actually promoting illegals, and are fully aware of the "extracurricular" activities of many in their police and military.)

#3 "Fischer Homes does not, in any way, condone the hiring or use of illegal immigrants." And then his lips fell off.

Perfect case of someone getting rich while hiring illegals for work people like me can do. Construction job are not jobs no one wants to do. It's like this at construction sites all across this nation.

This is part of a PR operation. No serious mass arrests and deportations will take place. This is part of a "same old thing different day" that the INS does from time to time. It's a drop in the bucket.

I am still waiting for that trickle down. I'll vote Republican and hold my nose. I'll only be doing for the good of those serving our country and what little security or elected government provides at our borders. On almost every other important issue the Republicans have failed to do anything positive. At least they haven't meddled in the economy and raised taxes.

#4 SPoD - You really don't need mass arrests of the illegal aliens. That's expensive, and even in an ideal world would totally clog the judicial system. What you want is enough arrests - and successful prosecutions of - those HIRING the illegal aliens. THAT could seriously discourage others from hiring illegals. And that should cause many of them to head on back home on their own. (The other necessary element to achieving success in this manner is reduction of social aid - the most that should be available is a free bus ticket to the border.)

#5 The key to solving the illegal alien problem is fairly straightforward:

1. Secure the borders.

2. Take the money out of hiring illegals. That means enforcing the existing laws against employers hiring illegals.

3. Deny social services to illegals.

4. Give them a free trip back to the border and $50 travel money. Take fingerprints and iris ID. Open the door and hope that it does not hit their a$$es on the way out.

5. Get rid of the Anchor baby provision in the law. Just because they were born here does not mean that they get to become citizens here.

6. Nobody who has entered illegally gets to be a citizen. They violated the law. They lose.

Look into the immigration law and determine a reasonable annual immigration rate that the country can do to successfully assimilate the LEGAL immigrants. Set up a point system for encouraging people with marketable skills to get preference.

#6 AP - Excellent start. Lets add a few...

7. Deny federal funds to so-called 'sanctuary cities' and counties. Sorry but you can't pick and choose which laws you will enforce.

8. If they get deported and come back they get to spend some time in a 'relocation camp' out in the middle of nowhere - at least until the migrant seasons are over.

9. If you want to have a guest worker program fine. First they must apply from their own country. Open it up to all countries. and if they are here illegally they are disqualifed for *life*.

10 Fines and prosecution for hiring illegals pierce the corperate veil. That means that Mr. walmart can find his ass bunked up with bubba for 5-10 years.

any more?

#7 The common claim is that there are currently 12 million Mexican illegals. Seems to me that number would fill Mexico's legal quota for, say, the next 24 years....
