Write a letter send an e-mail then, if they don't listen, throw the bums out

The Senate has set 11 million illegal aliens on the path to citizenship with the promise of tens of millions more to come. Oddly the part of the law that calls for construction of a wall to keep Vicente Fox’s under educated underclass out now must be negotiated with Vicente Fox. Hey makes sense to me.

I have one question for the geniuses in the Senate. If illegal aliens in the country less than two years are to be deported under the new law and are breaking the current law, what are we doing to round them up today? Answer: nothing. And that’s what we’ll get when the new bill passes – nothing.

Our only hope is in conference with the House. Please let your congressman know that what the Senate has just passed is 600 pages of unworkable bovine excrement.

The following is a cut and paste job of AF BRO’s letter adjusted to send to your representative in the House:

Dear Congressman_______:
The immigration bill the Senate just voted for is an abomination of appeasement to outlaws. It is also Pollyannaish in its assumption that law enforcement can identify violators of the proposed law and that politicians have the will (which they have lacked to date) to deport those who do not qualify for Senate amnesty. It is expensive ($54B over ten years), it is unfunded, it is ineffective, it is unworkable, and, with the Specter, Dodd amendments, it hands over control of our southern border to Mexico. SHAME, SHAME, SHAME ON THE SENATE!
The overwhelming majority of Americans are counting on you and the House to bring sanity to this issue. Passing no immigration bill at all would be better than the Senate amnesty. If amnesty for criminals passes, it seems appropriate to me that we should unite two popular chants: “Throw the bums out!” and “Si se puedo!” The president thinks the House will cave on this issue. Will you?
Sincerely,
