Re: Graham Backtracks On Threat To Walk Away From Immigration Reform

Really relieving to see this but remember it's not 59 + 1. Some of the biggest opponents of CIR are Dems (Southern and Northwestern) and some of the biggest supporters are Republicans. No matter how...

Re: Lindsey Graham to President Obama: Time to ‘step it up’

Interestingly from the new Newsweek article on this issues:

(As a side note, it's interesting to see Graham and Obama team up on immigration because last time around the issue strained their...

Re: Lindsey Graham to President Obama: Time to ‘step it up’

I can't believe that it takes a Republican senator from SC to urge the Democratic White House for action on this bill. Even the minority whip voted yes on CIR in 2007, more than can be said for quite...

Re: A guide to safe flying

Re: What To Expect From Obama's Upcoming State Of The Union Speech

I'll break my own rule and stop lurking to criticize just this once:

Honestly, it doesn't matter at all what he's going to say because he has promised things left and right and delivered on none...

Re: Immigration Reform Expected Soon in Congress

I think we should hope for a couple of things:

1- that the bill is as simple as possible. The longer and more complicated it is the more ground the antis can cling onto. It also takes longer to...

Re: Other Supporters of Dream

BUMP

Please re-sticky and add more arguments in more pertinent to the current situation. Use the ECONOMIC section for a good case for DREAM in this environment.

White House wants new US-Mexico trucking program

Re: My trip on the Amtrak from NY to Washington.

I'm glad you made it ok, even if really shaken. Do you guys think this policy will change a lot under the new DHS?

Re: More pro-CIR cabinet picks

More pro-CIR cabinet picks

Plus - more pro reform voices in the White House
Minus - fewer pro reform voices in the House of Reps.

Re: Report: illegal immigration beginning to subside

Does anybody have any idea just how this is measured? We can't even figure out how many citizens answering phone calls will vote one way or the another.
