Kennedy urges Bush to cut his own throat
There is no doubt that the US Christian Conservatives movement put Bush in the White House. Now they want him to behave as they see fit. They, the US Christian Conservatives don't want the bi-partisan measure that Kennedy crafted largely with Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona.
Rio Grande
No, the Conservative Right wants to keep those "wet backs" swimming back and forth across the Rio Grande to work as slave laborers for little money and not be entitled to the same rights as citizens such as health insurance and overtime pay. This “disposable workforce” which is estimated at 53% of all farm workers is often migratory, uneducated and living at, or well below, the poverty line.
You would think that the poor farmer who hires an illegal alien is the one who will suffer but not so. That is a load of propaganda. I was quite sickened hearing Bush speak of the poor farmer who will loose his farm because he can't find workers to work his land - unless, of course, the "slave" is controlled.
Those farms are held by powerful corporations. Between 1978 and 2002, the number of corporate-owned farms in the US increased by more than 46 percent.
American taxpayers spent a staggering $143.8 billion on farm subsidies over the past ten years, more than $104 billion of which 72 percent went to the top 10 percent of recipients--some 312,000 large farming operations, cooperatives, partnerships and corporations that collected, on average, more than $33,000 every year. No, it is not the poor farmer that Bush and his Conservative Right are worried about.
Not only does Bush tell lies but he also does not keep his promises to his supporters. He, as Kennedy urges, should settle for the bi-partisan solution. In that way he does not even have to throw in the towel.
I personally would like to see the free flow of people and goods with no restrictions but as long as we allow corporate avarice, we will have this form of prohibition. Illegal aliens made into felons for wishing to better their lot.
