Is Senator Patrick Leahy listening to what he is saying?

Well, the Senate Judiciary committee is trying it's best to cram down the throats of U.S. taxpayers an amnesty bill for illegal immigrants. While ignoring the FAILURE of the Federal government to protect our borders and enforce our immigration laws. They are attempting to push the amnesty for the illegals and once again sweep the problem under the rug like they did in 1986 when the country had three million illegals but, now has 12 to 20 million. Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy shows how clueless he is on the problem. Here is one of his pathetic justifications for amnesty legislation.

"Finding help on the farm is becoming increasingly difficult for hundreds of Vermont farms. Many have turned to migrant workers from Mexico and Central America. Currently, Vermont dairies are depending on an estimated 2,000 foreign workers."

2,000 workers! How about 40,000 illegals here on Long Island Senator. How 10% of our county jail cells being used to house illegal immigrants who have committed crimes in our communities. How about 3.5 billion dollars in costs to New York State taxpayers for costs related to illegal immigrants.

"The President has acknowledged that “you cannot deport 10 million people who have been here working.”

So now Leahy is agreeing with George Bush! The problem is Senator Leahy that because of the FAILURE of you and others in the Federal Government to enforce our immigration laws the illegal immigrants do not respect the laws. You think by granting an amnesty to those have been able to evade our laws is going to solve the problem? You are truly delusional Senator! Because the illegals do not respect our laws giving them amnesty will only encourage others to do the same and wait for the next amnesty. You and the others pushing for comprehensive immigration reform are not solving the problem you are creating a bigger problem.
