People with the strong backs keep your restaurants clean and the dishes washed and your lawns neatly mowed. No Americans will do the scut work required at the wages offered and these folks, just as foreign workers, will do anything for a chance for a better life. This is what america is all about.

create a new category of folks with work permits and enable illegals There is a category for legal workers to work under the constraints of work permits such as H1B and L1. I dont see the need for a category for illegal workers. When caught, they should just be shipped out.

Lieberman: From Lieberman campaign reporter Talesha Reynolds: Manchester, NH, Jan. 5 — Another day, another endorsement … for Howard Dean. Former presidential candidate Bill Bradley is set to give his support to the good doctor and Senator Lieberman has no choice but to remain optimistic. He downplayed the news, insisting that endorsements just don't mean that much. "Politicians don't pick presidents, the people do," he said. Lieberman asserted, as he has with renewed vigor since Al Gore's endorsement of Dean, that he is the Democrat who can defeat George Bush. The Senator has made a complete transition from his integrity themed stump speech to a message that echoes Kucinich's line from the Iowa debate, "I can win, if you vote for me." Senator Lieberman has said for weeks that he feels "something happening" in New Hampshire. A "Joementum," if you will. And he was not pleased when a reporter asked, if Lieberman was really gathering support, why there weren't more people at the day's events, which by then had included a diner stop where Lieberman shook a few hands, two sparsely populated healthcare events, and a high school event full of students not yet voting age. "What a negative question to ask," Lieberman said, and then explained that retail campaigning meant reaching out to people one by one. "The crowds that you see that matter are on primary day or election day," he said. "That's what it's all about." Tuesday, the campaign will unveil a new television ad for New Hampshire markets, and it will release its first radio ad. The television spot touts Lieberman's centrism and electability, claiming that he is the "only one" in the race who is sufficiently tough on terrorism and kind to the middle class. abcnews.go.com
