Arkansas Senators are Pryor and Lincoln. Lincolns office told me she voted for the bill last year and will probably vote for it again. Pryor hadnt looked at it and they didnt know how he would go.

The people from Arkansas need to look deep into the "Tyson" food chain. I have recently been told that they are to blame for bringing in thousands of illegals to work in their plants with the help of a former Arkansas governor.

According to a former employee at TYSON, there is a hugh story here waiting to bust at the seams. I will no longer support or purchase any "Tyson" food products. They don't need my money, I can get my chicken elsewhere.

You're right, there is a story in Northwestern Arkansas that is going untold. Tyson, George's, and the other poultry industries have work forces made up almost entirely of illegals. These people move about freely in the communities with complete freedom. They buy homes, vehicles, businesses, and make use of all the social services. If there is any area that can correctly be called an area of sanctuary, this is the place. There is a section of Springdale that is becoming exclusively Hispanic. The businesses operate as if they were situated in Mexico or the other Latin American countries: all signs are in Spanish and their customers are almost exclusively illegals. Nearly half of the students in all our schools are their children (we have the largest high school in the state.) THIS IS NOT A RACE QUESTION. It is a defense of our soveriegnty and preserving what has been our way of life. We are being sold out - there is not question about it. Contacting Lincoln or Pryor is a waste of time; I have never gotten a response from either of them regarding this issue. They will go with Kennedy because they are looking out for the money and power that runs the state. I am nothing less than amazed that we have elected elitists who completely ignore the will of the majority of the American people. How much of a prophet do you have to be to see the long term consequences of this amnesty? These people are not assimilating - they don't want to and their loyalties lie with their native countries. Remember what I say here: we are headed for internal strife within this country the likes of which we have never seen. Our law enforcement (at all levels) are just now beginning to wake up to what is going on behind the scenes with the criminal element embedded in the communities of the illegals. Don't believe me ? Google Rogers, Arkansas and see what the Mayor and Chief of Police have to say about it. This amnesty will be rammed down our throats and it will be the most catastrophic act ever foisted on this nation. A few last words: when these people are legalized, does Tyson and all those who are using this cheap labor not realize their cheap employees aren't going to continue to settle for the bones they throw them. And these people will organize and become politically active and place their own people in positions of power (from police on up to all the higher offices.)

My understanding is that Tyson Foods has a "hospice tax' that the illegals pay.  This tax is paid so that if the illegals are scooped up by Immigration and sent home Tyson Foods will hold their jobs for them until they get back.  I was told this by Tyson employees that work at the Nashville plant.  Isn't that a Hoot!! Sometimes it takes the illegals a couple of days to get back, but they still have their jobs when they get here.

DWG, Ive been saying that too. No one is exempt. Even the leaders. Congress brings in La Raza to help them write the bills and they dont stop to realize they arent exempt either. But I dont think they care. They already set themselves up for life. They will get as much for life as they get now working. I know we need to hold our officials more accountable and bring their level of income and living down with the rest of us, but how is another question sense they are the ones that make the laws. They will continue to vote themselves gifts and satin pillows for life.

Pryors time in office is up in 2009 and Lincolns is up in 2010. Thats a long time to wait. See we had liberal democrats before in controle, but it seems suddenly so many in both parties are selling out on this issue and none of us knows what we can legally do about it. And by the time we figure it out or get to vote on it the damage will be done. But we will still have to keep trying to reverse it. This sickens me. I feel so helpless. All I can do is call and email and scream at my TV. A man said this morning on Cspan, people should not get so emotional about it. We should all remember we are a nation of immigrants. Emotional???? I wanted to reach out and strangle him. We are also a nation of laws and you arent going to tell me that you cant enforce the laws ....again....till after another mass amnesty. Liars!!!! Yes amnesty. Like Ted Poe just said in the senate...If someone comes onto your land illegally and they pay a fine for it, they still have to leave. If they are allowed to stay,,,thats amnesty.

I feel hopeless at times, too. But I don't give up; I continue to call, email, and fax. But I have to ask, where are the rest of us? Why isn't the greater part of America rising up to protest this? If, as the polls show, the majority of Americans are so strongly against illegal immigration where are numbers we need to make things happen? I wonder if we haven't become so complacent that we care more about spoiled celebreties and reality TV than we do about the future of our children and grandchildren. I agree that in the long run the adding of the illegals to their voting core will come back to haunt Pryor and Lincoln. And, yes, we are supposed to be a nation of laws - no longer, we are now a nation of lawyers. We of the older generation were taught a love of this country and respect for those who paid the price because "freedom is not free." But it appears everything we hold dear has become the target of fellow citizens who hate simply for the sake of hating or to make a buck. Black is white and white is black; we've fallen down the rabbit hole and can't find our way back. I asked Lincoln, Pryor, and John Boozman to answer a simple question: "Why are those we have elected ignoring the will of the American people on the issue of illegal immigration? " Boozman will continue to get my vote, he has the same interests as we do and stands strongly with us; Lincoln and Pryor didn't bother to reply. If you want the answer to my question, read this article. It is the most concise, in a nutshell, answer to my question I have found. "Why Six Illegal Aliens Are Worth One American"  by Mac Johnson at Humanevents.com.

I heard on talk radio this morning ( I don't rememeber which host because I skip around a lot) that Arkansas has the fastest growing illegal alien population in the nation now.  Also, they have established a new Mexican consulate there.  It's hard to believe the illegals are moving in there faster than SoCal.

Please tolerate me and let me be a bit more verbose. When the amnesty is passed, it won't make much difference at first. But if my crystal ball is functioning correctly, you'll begin to see dramatic changes in the country in as little as five years. The figure of 12 million illegals is simply wrong. What is being referred to are "workers." They are not including the family members in the count. If what I see here in Northwest Arkansas is any barometer, the figure is most likely around 30 to 35 million across the country. The passing of this bill will have the same results as in 1986: it will be another green light for even more illegals to cross over. There are a great many activists in the Hispanic communities who are very passionate about gaining political control. This will happen as they will be the majority in their communities. These activists manipulate the news media and have their sympathy; when was the last time you heard or read the phrase "illegal alien" on the TV news or in the newspapers here? I heard one yesterday proclaimng that two major areas of Mexico were so repressed by the government that they were coming here to escape the oppression. My question is, and has been, why don't the people of Mexico rise up and change their incredibly corrupt nation? Why come here and demand things of us because of what is happening in their country? Change it. Mexico should be on a par with the U.S. but the wealth and power is held in the hands of a very few. Were the illegals here to put the energy they exhibit to demand rights of us into fixing the problems of their country, there would be no need to come here.

It is also not including the 20% increase per 5 years or 4. Im not sure wich it is. They want to cut it down to bringing in with them spouse and children only, but even with the amount allowed in each year cut in half from  400,000 to 200,000, with that 20% inflation increase and then the 12-20 million and their spouses and children (well half of those are probably already here) we are gonna have quite a mess. But congress doesnt have to deal with it. They go home to their mansions and have their pensions for life and have their 2-5 hour work days. Some weeks they average 1-2 hours per day of work. Boy they have it made. They are just setting the stage for La Raza though, because this is who they are handing the government over to anyway.

Did you ever get the feeling that the house is on fire and the people upstairs watching television aren't concerned because, hey, there's nothing burning there, yet?
