A while back, Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid (d, of course), shockingly referred to illegal aliens as simply being "undocumented Americans." With his rationale, and many like him, once you are in the U.S., by virtue of simply "being" here - you are actually an American - just "undocumented." With that said, would it not be wise for them, as a means to save tax payers' money, to get rid of the INS, border guards and stop requiring people to show a passport prior to entering the country? If everyone is in fact an American once you are here, why the charade? Let's make these politicians put their money where their mouths are. If they refuse to enforce our laws (that they have created), then everyone in the country - illegal or not - should be declared an "American" and stop with all the peripheral nonsense.
What's so shocking? I should remind you that we have a Republican President and he won't even secure our border. John McCain's plan on illegals is amnesty.
