On S-2590, Amnesty, and Law Enforcement

Dear Senators:

We want the Coburn/Obama bill 2590 unblocked and passed!

The secret "hold" placed on this bi-partisan Bill is an outrage. If any Senator has a legitimate reason the bill should not be passed, he or she should come out publicly, say he or she is opposing it and explain why.

We want to know where and how our tax dollars are being spent. We cannot trust the management of our government funds to people who feel they do not have to keep us informed.

This is not brain surgery. Either you insist that we enforce our laws and behave responsibly with our tax dollars, or we will not vote for you at election time.

Oh, and, let's stop dilly dallying with our country's security issues. We want NO AMNESTY, no worker program, no student visas renewed or new ones handed out until after the Middle East (including Iraq and Afghanistan) situation has been safely contained.

We need no new legislation to do this. There are laws on our books that we should be allowing our law enforcement community to enforce. If we do not enforce our laws, we become a lawless people.

Already, most of our citizens feel that our unenforced laws do not apply to them--just to everyone else.

Illegal aliens believe they can ignore our laws and be rewarded in the US with riches and a "better life."

And we have a number of our legislators--both of you among them (this was sent to my two senators originally. Check your senators here and feel free to write them about how YOU feel)--who think that it's just fine to give our tax money and constitutional rights away to non-citizens (in some cases even our stated enemies) who do not obey the laws that you ask us to obey. This is also outrageous. We are not fooled into thinking this is good for the future of our State or the USA.

We, the public, are going to figure out a way to return to societal sanity as Arizona is now doing and as Hazelton, PA, has done, so come along, or, please, just get out of our way.

That any of our elected officials will not act appropriately according to the grave risks leveled at Americans and all democratic people around the world, is beyond comprehension.

We need to WIN this confrontation, not to appease it. People who disagree with us to the point of wanting us annihilated--and have said so repeatedly--cannot be trusted to negotiate a "win/win" compromise. We need to take them at their word. Sometimes you just have to be stronger and carry that "bigger stick" in the interest of all that is good in the world. We elected you to represent us in that process. What have you done for us lately?
