DHS to improve border security and immigration within existing law

Posted Fri, Aug 10, 2007 at 3:12 pm

Don't just take my word for it, here's the fact sheet entitled "Improving Border Security and Immigration Within Existing Law" (link). And, they said it couldn't be done.

Certainly, most of the steps listed sound worthwhile, but I have a sneaking suspicion that some of them will not only be ineffectual but will infringe on our privacy. And, I suspect that some of the "streamlining" of existing guest worker programs will have a few flaws as well. I also suspect that the usual suspects will raise howls of protest about some of the features, such as changes to the citizenship exam. That will, of course, make the Bush administration look better in some peoples' eyes, who'll think that if the ACLU opposes it they must be doing something right.

UPDATE: The nitty-gritty legal details of the "no match" requirements are here:

Anything that this government of Bush mexico city pigs do is against our human and civil rights as a people and as a culture of good against evil doers, just look at the war on drug's a total joke and look at this war being used to attack us here in the so called homeland. Bush is not a person of laws but a person who is owned by others just look at what he his done for Red China and against out own political and human rights here in this nation of fools asking to be exterminated as a people. Buy Guns.
