Hey, he's there to get things done.

It appears the people pushing immigration reform are those that want more immigrants legally allowed each year, and that a path for citizenship should be made. Why, why should America allow more immigrants to come at a time when jobs are already scarce, the American financial system is pushed to the brink, and America can't even properly care for it's veterans. Many immigrants no longer wish to become Americans they just want to live here, and complain about what they don't get here, and raise tensions in communities because they refuse to assimilate. Why should America create a pathway to citizenship for those here illegally, simply put they are here illegally. I understand that exporting somewhere around 11 million is virtually impossible, I also understand the devistation to the families involved. I don't see why a law giving some sort of legal status, green cards or whatever would not be acceptable , I don't see how citizenship for illegals is far to people who have gone through the arduous task of becoming a citizen.

Do you understand "spell checker" and "grammar checker"?

More to the point do you understand "Boehner deliberately blocked a BIPARTISAN immigration bill to placate the teabaggers"?

Boehner blocking a bipartisan bill has nothing to do with,my question is why does America need immigration reform.
