Burning Atlanta

It's really kind of laughable but pathetic at the same time. These arrogant slime really don't give a damn what the people want, their only concern is getting re-elected and appeasing their big money backers. Bennett has adopted the same BS public stance that he hasn't made up his mind, yet, and will wait to make a decision until the final bill is drafted. MY ASS. That's the same crap Saxby Chambliss and others are spewing.

Weasel

Angry Utahns by the hundreds are calling, e-mailing and faxing Sen. Bob Bennett, R-Utah, demanding he oppose an immigration bill that would provide legal status to an estimated 12 million undocumented immigrants.
    Those voters generally receive a coy answer.
    "My public position is that I'm reviewing the amendments," Bennett said Tuesday.
    It's a ploy meant to defuse emotion. But here's what Bennett's staffers are not saying: he plans to vote for it.
    And he points to St. George as part of the reason why.
    St. George is the fastest-growing metro area in the nation, mostly because people from California and Las Vegas continue to relocate there. In many ways this Washington County economic powerhouse is fueled by workers from Mexico and other Latin American countries.
    "One of the realities is our economy is dependent on labor that is coming from illegal immigrants and that is true of St. George," Bennett said.
    Washington County Commissioner Jim Eardley has visited with Bennett and Sen. Orrin Hatch urging them to help create some kind of guest worker program.
    He estimates 12,000 undocumented immigrants work in the area, many of them constructing new homes.
    If they left, there would be no one to replace them. BULLSHIT!!! Who did those jobs before the flood of illegals. It's not about a labor shortage, it's about a shortage of CHEAP labor.
