   “The legislation that we authored, and which passed the House Tuesday with overwhelming bipartisan support, would not allow any taxpayer funds to be distributed to illegal immigrants.

   So we know enough about the illegals to be able to ensure the American people that they will not receive a dime of this rebate. However, we are also told (by the same people I might add) that we have to bring them out of the shadows, we don’t know where they all are, etc. I’m sorry but I am having a very difficult time believing much of anything that’s coming out of Washington these days. I respect Boehner indubitably but Pelosi? Ew and ick.

   What concerns me is those illegals with 2-3 social security numbers. Are they going to get multiple checks? Since most of their earned money is going South, I think the only economies we’ll be helping are the ones south of the border.

   Sounds like another “non-binding resolution” to me.Or just another un-enforcible rule derived at to give the impression that Congress is doing something other than wasting taxpayers money.

   Like another poster here I will have to see whether I get a check or whether it goes to the individual that is using my SSN in another state …

   This whole thing is ridiculous and unneeded anyway … by the time they send out the checks the economy will have worked out more of the problems that are occurring right now … on its own … without any help from congress …

   What about people who paid no taxes? Sending them checks is welfare with taxes that I paid. It’s very disturbing how both houses of Congress is fawning over this legislation. They’re buying votes, while mortgaging our grandchildren, with borrowed funds from China.

   If a Democrat or McCain wins the Presidency, I know what the headlines will be, the day after Election Day: “Economy best in years!”

   Law.

   Order.

   Two simple words that make up the true responsibility of government. Nothing more, nothing less, and certainly nothing else.

   The assertion that amnesty’s needed because we’ve tried to enforce the law and failed is belied by this sort of thing — we have yet to take even elementary steps to control immigration.

   Are you kidding? Do you seriously think anyone is going to take action in an election year?

    Secondly, why are we still barring the IRS from cooperating with the immigration authorities?

    Why indeed? Why isn’t Social Security working with other agencies to stop illegals from getting numbers? Apparently because our government isn’t serious about closing the borders, enforcing our laws and getting rid of the illegal immigrant problem. What a pathetic farce. Our government at work, once again protecting illegals over citizens.

    Just think what our government will be like if McCain is president and his buddy Juan gets appointed to a position of power.

    No checks for anybody. It’s a waste of money and won’t stimulate anything. Use it to build the fence

    Build a fence? Ah,no…can’t build a fence. Democrats would fight that with everything they have. There are too many democrat voters trying to cross right now, so they can vote come November.

    I do have to laugh. All this proves is that this current government is looking to buy votes at the waste of taxpayers money.

    A little note. I have gone to an all cash basis. On several occasions over the last couple of years my credit has been the subject of several attempts of theft. Here is the part I really laugh at. Do to the wide spread of this governments use of letting SSN out. I have recieved many notices denying me credit on credit cards and loans I HAVE NEVER APPLIED FOR. I now purposely keep my credit score low/bad. This really discourages the theft as they can not purchase anything worth a darn with it.

    I just wish that a few of these open boarder supporters would have their identity stolen so that they would understand the problem with ILLEGALS and those who are aidding them.

    Come Nov. i’ll not vote for McTraitor as many others say, but i will vote in local primaries for every hard conservative on my ballot. In many cases that means getting rid of the incumbent…example a RINO senator here up for reelection.

    Anyone in congress running for office this year and not pushing for a fence should be voted out.

    I saw a suggestion the other day for a one-time tax cut to take effect for yr 2007…deduct the amount you’d receive in a check from your tax bll. It’s instant and it’s like you just got the money, unless of course you didn’t pay in, then you don’t get anything, rightfully so. There is no check processing on either end…how much do you think that cost? Not to mention how green it would be saving the trees from becoming checks.

    #1 It’s worth repeating.

    Washington says they can prevent illegal aliens from receiving the money, yet they can’t identify them for deportation. Which way is it?

    Pack of liars.

    Bob Jones-77, right on!

    Why don’t we all pool our checks together (just this once), buy some private land along the border, and build the fence ourselves?

    No joke - it…could…work!

    Hernandez is bad news! I’ve seen them try to debate him on Fox, and whenever he gets cornered on an issue like illegal criminals, he smiles broadly, slaps a robust “MY friend!” epithet across your back and then proceeds to call you a racist for having ever questioned him on the topic.

    Well, at least the border is a little more secure, if that is worth anything. They did something, which is better than nothing.

    Build the fence, deport illegals, and close businesses that hire illegals. I would fine homeowners that hire side-walk illegal laborers as well.

    This nasty abuse of authority by our government is wreaking havoc on the lives of American citizens. Didn’t they learn anything after the bombardment of emails, faxes and phone calls over the shamnesty attempt? I feel sick to my stomach over the demise of our country at the hands of such self-centered, arrogant politicians.

    I’ve heard that the ICE agents can’t find illegals. How about in front of Home Depot and Lowe’s every morning. Then you can wait at the closest bus stops to upper class
    neighborhoods to catch the females. You can go into neighborhoods and check out
    the people doing yard work. What’s so hard about this?
