As I have listened to Senators like Lindsay Graham, Arlen Specter, Ted Kennedy, and others today FIGHT so hard for illegal aliens, their healthcare, their benefits, and FIGHT so hard against the American public, I think to myself, who do they think is being convinced?

Listen to Lindsay Graham talk of punishment for breaking our laws - 4 yrs for this, 5 yrs for this - acting as if this time, this time they will actually enforce and penalize anything. Some of these same characters from 1986 are still there blathering away and believing, well hoping, that millions and millions of Americans will buy their line. No Senators, it is twenty years later without enforcement and with millions and millions of illegal aliens and growing, and Americans are not buying into your lies.

Senator Bingaman is talking about two years here, one year there and two years here or some such nonsense. Now let me see, it is inhumane to seperate families now, these anchor babies will switch back and forth to other countries while being educated and what a mess does that create.

I also called the RNC today and told them that every time Lindsay Graham speaks and people watch his YOUTUBE performance that Republicans leave the party.
