RE:"Well, then, if you insist on pursuing the subject, who is being political about this, and how and why?" Politicians in general. It's all about votes. Never mind the borders, the immigration laws etc.. Both Bush and Kerry have plans to legitimize illegal immigration. Politicians in border states want you to subsidize medical care for illegals. Why? for votes... Sure, the illegals may or may not vote but they have "kin" who might. Meanwhile the borders are pretty much open for terrorists to slip in and out among the rest while the border patrol has no chance of controlling the situation.
