Obama Documents Immigration Plan During Newton Visit
Some Iowans Unsure Of Plan

DES MOINES, Iowa -- Democratic presidential candidate and Sen. Barak Obama spoke to a crowd Monday in Newton about his immigration plan.

Not everyone was thrilled with his plan.

He outlined three principals behind his immigration reform plan.

First, he said stronger border security, barriers, cameras and patrols are needed.

"You can't have hundreds of people pouring over our borders without us knowing who they are and why they're here," he said.

Second, he said he would eliminate the job incentive. He suggested a tamper-proof verification card that can be checked against a national database and punishing employers who hire illegal immigrants.

"Part of the reason that there's such a strong incentive is because we have no system of holding employers accountable for hiring undocumented workers," he said.

Third, he said that sending the 12 million undocumented workers already in the U.S. home is not an option.

"Many of them have children who are U.S. citizens, spouses who are here legally. We would have to donate all of our law enforcement resources -- all," he said.

Instead, Obama said he would like a temporary legal status and an application process for those illegal immigrants who are already here to become legal citizens.

After the speech, he left giving the Newton residents something to think about

Obama is making his last stop in Iowa this week. He will speak at Ottumwa High School on Monday night.

This is called "hear no evil, see no evil". Obama is one of the worst there is.

Doesn't the 14th Amendment state their children AREN'T American citizens?

Osama wishes that there were only 12 million illegals. In 1986, the sponsors of the last amnesty bill said we had anywhere from 3 to 12 million illegals to deal with. Way back then they thought there could be up to 12 million invaders. If that were true back then, just think how many are here now.

I know here in Mexifornia there are far more than the 3 million that they claim, there are probably that many in L.A. alone. And of course they don't consider anchor babies as illegals, they are counted as regular U.S. citizens. They may be considered as such as a technicality of law, but in terms of their impact to our society, drain on public coffers and loyalty to America, they are every much a part of the invasion as any other illegal. So this so called 12 million figure is barely a fraction of the real amount.

We need a leader and Congress with some balls, we need to ban the traitorous ethnic based racist organizations and take our country back. We have to can this wimpy, politically correct cowardice and expel every illegal on sight, then the rest of the invaders will see we finally mean business and leave on their own. If a family sees all of their illegal neighbors, relatives and co-workers getting the boot, along with crooked employers doing the felony perp walk, they will get the hint and hit the road back to their home countries.

if it is impossible to gather up and deport 12 million illegals how the heck are we going to gather up 12 million people and do background checks on them? most of these people have fraudulent ID's &/or come from third world nations where there is no paper work. no the answer is enforce the laws on the books. that includes social services only for legal citizens.

Very good questions, Pat. Also, we don't know whether we have 12 million, 20 million or something in-between. I've never understood why we 'can't' round them up and send them back. We are AMERICANS; we don't say 'can't.'

I'll tell you what I don't understand, why doesn't the crowd boo him and tell him what they want, if a few of the crowds started doing that when they say we can't send back 12 milllion during these campaign speeches they wouldn't keep saying it. I wish they would come to the west I would tell them, attrition threw enforcement few thousand people yell that to them maybe they would change their attitude!!

If we rounded up several hundred thousand of them and sent them home, I think we would start to see a mass exodus. I am actually in deep sympathy with these poor people, but I also have a good dose of common sense and know that there are limits to the number of people that can be assimilated into our society. If this chaos continues, there will be no American dream.
