Would the liberals who are yelping about illegals rights categorize any of these as asking for one's 'papers". Of course not.

I would like to hear just one reason....a good legitimate, logical reason why we should not expect illegals to be sought out, sorted, profiled, pursued and made to become legal or send them back to where ever they hailed from.

Political answers not allowed based on the criteria: a good legitimate, logical reason. I do not believe in impossible assignments!!

Your question is difficult because there is no legitimate reason only a logical one.

The logical one is Democrats want these people to vote for them.

It appears to me that being an illegal immigrant is somewhat akin to having diplomatic immunity.

Here is the President of the AFL-CIO Rich Trumka's logical reason. And we both know unions aren't political. They are just looking out for the small people. Here's what it's all about IMHO: "...The AFL-CIO is for a fair path toward legalization for all undocumented workers who are working to realize the American Dream. We are for the DREAM Act ...And we need to make sure every worker in America – documented or undocumented – is protected by our labor laws. That is why it is so urgent that we reform our immigration system...so when we talk about making the American Dream real, the labor movement stands for making it real for all of us who do the work of our country...The people doing the hardest work for the least money have no legal protections, no ability to send their children to college, no real right to form a union , no economic or legal security—no way to turn their contributions—their years of hard work—into the most fundamental right of all, the right to vote . That is intolerable for a democracy."

The Dream Act is their plan.

When I was working, it was for the railway industry; and we had no choice but to belong to the union. I always wished that we had the option like other industries, but that was not the case. I don't believe any of the people I worked with would have been agreeable to allowing illegal immigrants to come into our union and take the job of someone who is a legal US citizen. I also know that the union leaders are like most politicians and are only looking out for their own best interest. They try to make you believe otherwise, but that's just not the case.

Working for a grocery store part-time while a high school student, I was informed that I had to join the union and it was mandatory that I attend a union meeting that was coming up. The meeting was 20 miles away, on a school night and I had to arrange to get a ride there and back. After getting to the meeting, after much hassle, listening to a lot of un-related stuff on the agenda, comes time to vote on the issue that required mandatory attendance, I'm informed that I was not elgible to vote-- not old enough! What a waste of time. Needless to say, subsequent encounters with the unions have not improved my opinion of them.

Though my ex-wife and I had a bitter divorce, there was certainly one area where we agreed. She was and still is VEHEMENTLY anti-union, at least in her job at the Post Office. She got that job on her own merits when it was Emery Air Freight (doing Priority Mail on contract for the USPS) and refused to join the union when it reverted to the USPS. Fortunately, working in New Hampshire, she could not be forced to join the union - but make no mistake, she's been harassed as a 'scab'. Funny thing is, her attendance is better than union members. And the union admits that they can't do 1/3 the work with more people than was being done when Emery was in charge.
