You support slave labor camps for "guest worker" aliens recruited in Mexico? That is armed concentration camps in the desert holding tens of thousands of workers with no human rights getting $1 an hour trucked in daily then back again to agribusiness and industrial sites?

Who wins? Bush's corporate cronies. Don't have to hire Americans anymore.

Who loses. Amerca's workingclass.

Why don't we just annex Mexico and get it over with? Bush's propposal is worse than what we have now. And why hasn't Bush done squat about the border in 13 years?

5000 Guardsmen on the border ain't gonna do squat. It's just a photo op. We'd need 100,000 and they're all in Iraq.

Alligator attacks kill three in Florida
By ASSOCIATED PRESS
May 15, 2006

MIAMI - Florida had seen just 17 confirmed fatal alligator attacks in the previous 58 years.

In less a week, there appears to have been three.

The bodies of two women were found Sunday some 130 miles apart.

Annemarie Campbell, 23, of Paris, Tenn., was attacked while snorkeling in a secluded recreation area near Lake George, said state wildlife spokeswoman Kat Kelley. The lake is about 50 miles southeast of Gainesville.

In Pinellas County, the body of another woman apparently killed by an alligator was found in a canal 20 miles north of St. Petersburg, authorities said.

Judy Cooper's body had been in the water for about three days, authorities said.

On Wednesday, construction workers found the dismembered body of a Florida Atlantic University student in a canal near Fort Lauderdale. A medical examiner concluded that the 28-year-old woman was attacked near the canal bank and dragged into the water.

On Saturday, wildlife officers captured an 9-foot, 6-inch alligator in Sunrise that they believe fatally attacked Yovy Suarez Jimenez while she was out jogging.
