In my America, hardworking immigrants that want to become citizens - like my grandparents - are welcomed. Children of illegals are minors - they didn't make the conscious choice to be illegal, as their parents did. This is their home and, when they are adults, if they want to renounce their country of origin and follow the path to gain citizenship, more power to them. And I don't care if they are Canadian, Irish or German.

But then again you agreed with the President saying we couldn't afford NOT to let the tax relief expire for those over 250K but now somehow have the money to not only continue the Bush plan for all but ALSO put in a payroll and SS tax reduction? What did we hit the lotto and I don't know it?

Did you miss where I have repeatedly said I am against that, as it is unfunded, and I want it funded? We can get rid of those ridiculous non-job-producing tax cuts for those earning over 1 million, that will fund half of it readily. I am for a payroll tax deduction, but against it coming from Social Security as it sets a precedence I don't like.
