Chicago's Luis Gutierrez preaches lower expectations for immigration reform

Better late than never right?

Maybe he should have thought of that when he wrote his bill. It was way too liberal.

say what you want, i still love this guy.

I have mixed emotion for this guy. For god's sake, he's held Dream Act hostage for years

We should all CALL HIM and remind him to PASS THE DREAM ACT DURING Nov.-Dec.

oh cmon. it wasnt just him. It was ALL of them. Including our dear Senator Durbin. But, is there anybody else that has been more vocal and more supportive of immigrants than him?

Gutierrez is 0k.

IMO the only politician that has really played us is Obama. Even Americans started making fun of his so called support for immigration reform. That guy didn't one single thing to help our cause.

100% agree with gebodupa, Obama is the one who has played with us. Out loud he promised that in his first 100 days, we'll have the immigration reform done. Nothing happened even he had full congress and senate in his hand. Now he says he is pushing for it and he needs repub. to support him, wht the hell. He tried to gain support of the white voters by doing his health care but it bit him instead and now not only he is loosing house he might will loose senate too and maybe his second term. He should have stood with his promise with latinos and they would have supported his party today and later. Good for him and Harry Reid, as from day one harry has been playing games with the latinos and immigrants. He should goooo as he doesn't deserve any power but after seeing sharon angle then i say atleast he is proimmigrant. Don't know what else to say at this point, totally frustrated as life goin nowhere.

People don't matter. Legislative action does.

Gutierrez is preaching something that dovetails well with the DA. DA *IS* less lofty than CIR.

Let's do it.

Im just surprised of how long it took for these guys to focus on only the DREAM Act... Ive been saying for the longest time that we didnt have a chance as long as they kept pushing for a huge CIR. But Idk man I really hope they dont screw us over when the DREAM is brought up alone. There's going to be major backlash if they fail to pass it as a stand alone.
