Open Lettter to President and US Congress: A Reasonable Immigration


John Lillpop Saturday, May 28, 2011

Mr. President, Honorable Members of Congress:

Because our government has refused to secure America’s borders and enforce the law, our nation is struggling to deal with tens of millions of illegal aliens who have entered this great nation unlawfully.


Many are good-hearted, hard working folks, simply looking for a better life.

However, that description also applies to scores of millions of others throughout the world, just as eager, and just as deserving, for a chance at the American Dream.

But while America is overwhelmed with illegal aliens who have willfully violated our borders and laws, people in other parts of the world are ordered to stand in line, wait their turn, and do that which is required for legal immigration.

We tell such hopefuls that America operates in accordance with the rule of law, and that their immigration wishes must be handled fairly, according to law.

Many of those waiting in line are highly educated and well trained.

Unfortunately, the same can not be said for many illegal aliens currently in America.

Predominately from third-world Latin nations, they are typically non-English speaking, unskilled and poor. Such people impose extraordinary burdens on our all-ready stressed education, health care, and legal systems, and cost American taxpayers more than $110 billion each year.

In addition, while young American men and women are sent to serve in harm’s way in Afghanistan and Iraq, our own borders remain unsecured, making America vulnerable to further terrorist attacks.

Failure to secure the home front during time of war can only be seen as a mockery of the American lives and treasury sacrificed to secure freedom in foreign lands 10,000 miles from home.

Americans are well aware of the fact that immigration is the subject of intense debate in the hallowed halls of congress. We also hear that some legislative proposals would actually forgive those who have broken into America in defiance of our borders and laws.

In Washington parlance, the euphemism is “Guest Workerâ€

Reasonable perhaps. However, how often do you see people on the left being reasonable?
For them, only a compromise between reasonable and unreasonable will be acceptable. Obviously this negates the possibility of having a reasonable approach.
I think working with the left is what gave rise to the term half-assed...

Perhaps, PaulRevere...But it's still worth a shot. I just sent copies of this to my Senators and Rep. and asked them to sponsor or co-sponsor this type of legislation. Of course, we all know that the only response I'll get from McCain is another copy of his 10 point plan to secure the border.

None the less, We must keep pushing Washington until they do the job they were elected to do.

Only my question will be, "Why are you suing AZ?"

After all these years I think my e-mails to Mcamnesty most likely go straight to his trash bin anyway. McCain is useless and a traiter.......
I have no questions for him or any traitors. I sure as hell could recommend some PUNISHMENT though...
