On Immigration

Our President has decided to open up another political battlefront, as the NY Times reports today.

Obviously being from a family of immigrants, I've always slanted heavily towards pro-immigration, and I was particularly pissed when the Democratic leadership put in the inane H1-B visa limit in the the bailout laws.

Still, I'm hoping progress will be made.

Where do you all stand?

Interesting-- it was actually the first article that caught my eyes on the NYTimes front page today.

What is your view on "bring[ing] illegal immigrants into the legal system by recognizing that they violated the law, and imposing fines and other penalties to fit the offense"? How heavy of a penalty will be considered reasonable for this offense? Also, what is your view on legalizing illegal immigrants?

Your new blog entries keep popping up on my facebook mini-feed, and I must admit, they are quite entertaining!

Gracias,
