Immigration Revisited

I've written previously on the immigration issue, probably on my web site tiltingatsacredcows.com and thought I had it pretty well covered; however, our so-called representatives are working overtime to figure out what propaganda messages will work to "convince" us that it is in the American's best interest to let illegal aliens over-run us and our way of life.
Now it is "comprehensive immigration" and "being good samaritans" that are being given as "arguments" to allow those already "in" to stay and those wanting in a free ticket.
Since when did we the American people vote for representatives representing illegal immigrants? I didn't see that in their campaign slogans. Our representatives need to figure out who they are representing; and the American voters need to figure out what they want this country to be like in the decades to come, because this land of opportunity is becoming anything but the land of opportunity for the "average" American; what with corporate American shipping out jobs and encouraging illegal workers to come in and work in the U.S. No one knows who the Democrats represent--it isn't the "average" American that is for sure. If they figure on a "slam-dunk" this next election they had better recalculate because they have been on the wrong side of the immigration issue (and other popular issues), and that will be a major issue for both parties come Fall.
With ten to thirty million illegal aliens in this country doing their thing, unhindered, should send us, the American Voter, a message--that we have a problem--namely we aren't being represented, protected, and are not getting our monies worth generally. When I hear propaganda about being Samaritans and comprehensive plans, an euphemism for amnesty to illegal aliens, I have to ask myself "do our representatives really think we are that dumb not to see the dishonesty in their message. And do our representatives think they are representing the American people when they push for legislation that in effect flaunts the laws they enacted, lowers American wages, encourages more illegal immigration, increases crime, increases our taxes, and doesn't address security issues?
I want representatives who represent American interests, who are looking out for Americans, who talk straight, and follow the Constitution. So far I'm not seeing any.
