prove that the invasion can be stopped? American
Border Patrol. Should you support them? If not now, when? |

Multi-level
sellout underway, compliments of Bush and cronies
...In Washington on Tuesday, White House
press secretary Scott McClellan and chief political strategist Karl Rove emphasized Mr.
Bush's intent to press for change. Mr. McClellan said the
president believes strongly in his proposed plan to allow migrants
to work legally for three years with the possibility of an extension.
-- "It will promote compassion for workers who right now
have no protection, and it will protect the homeland by helping
to control our borders better," he said. |

Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison proposed Tuesday
that non-Mexican immigrants be held in local and county jails,

local governments that jail criminal illegal immigrants [er,

be jailed, then promptly removed.] |

Invasion:
New York fishwrap bewails local enforcement
If you asked a politician to brainstorm
for a really bad idea - something, say, that would betray and
frighten his weakest constituents, embolden criminals, hamstring
the police, strain law- enforcement resources, cheer the hearts
of community bigots and waste a lot of money - it could take
a while, but he might come up with a plan as offensive as what
Steve Levy has in mind for Long Island's Suffolk County. |

prepared to defend workers in Prop. 200 suits
Phoenix this week is expected to become
the first Valley city to take steps to defend its employees should
they be sued for violating the recently passed Proposition 200.
-- The measure, which was billed by supporters as a way to save
the state money and send the message that undocumented
immigrants are not welcome, makes it a crime for public employees
not to report undocumented immigrants seeking public benefits. |

Borders and Illegal Immigration Under Control
...Since the U.S. Constitution makes
it the duty of the federal government to "protect each of
[the states] against invasion," Congress should close all
our borders to illegal entry by using increased personnel, technology,
aerial surveillance, and military troops. Although 4,000 illegal
aliens enter daily across the Arizona border alone, since 9/11
the Border Patrol has been increased by only 1,300 agents.
