WAKE UP AMERICA...the Senate Judiciary is about to give away the farm, and grant tens of millions of illegal aliens AMNESTY. The big headlines were Frist, but look for a BAIT AND SWITCH as he withdraws his bill, and instead lets the Senate vote on Senator Arlen Spincter's bill that includes a Guest Worker plan leading to eventual US citizenship for the 15 million illegal aliens already here, and opening the flood gates for millions more.
Senate Panel Leaning Toward Guest Worker Program

WASHINGTON — Senators writing a major immigration law overhaul bill moved Thursday toward accepting an approach under which illegal immigrants could stay in the United States while working toward permanent residence and eventual citizenship.
Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., stressed that his plan moving through the Senate Judiciary Committee would not constitute an amnesty, a policy rejected by the Bush administration and most Americans, according to polls. Kennedy said it would not give the estimated 11 million people in the country illegally any advantage over the 3 million living overseas while waiting for a decision on green card applications.
Committee Chairman Arlen Specter said the panel would consider the proposal put forward by Kennedy and Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., when it reconvenes on March 27 after a weeklong recess.
Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., has made clear that immigration reform will be on the chamber's floor that week, regardless of whether the Judiciary Committee comes up with a comprehensive bill.
Congress, at the urging of President Bush, has made comprehensive immigration reform a top priority for this election-year session, pushing forward proposals combining immigration enforcement, a guest worker program and a policy toward people living in the country illegally.
