Bush:"They're doing the jobs Americans don't want to do

[Mister Bushice]

BULLSHIT.

1300 illegals arrested at 6 meat packing plants

but then they had to let some of them go to take care of their illegal families.

How about a major fine against the plant owners? Big enough to discourage every other business from pulling the same shit.

How much you want to bet those illegals will be back on the job the day after they get released?

fuckers...

Some workers seized in raids released

OMAHA, Neb. - Dozens of illegal immigrants arrested in last week's meatpacking plant raids have been released for humanitarian reasons pending immigration hearings, a government official said Friday.

About 100 have been released from detention centers, many to care for children or ailing relatives, since the Dec. 12 federal raids on Swift & Co. meatpacking plants in six states, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement spokesman Jamie Zuieback said. Many were released the day of the raids, she said.

She wouldn't specify what other criteria the agency used to determine whether workers should be released for humanitarian reasons.

In all, about 1,300 workers were arrested in the raids.

Detained workers were asked if they had minor dependents, Zuieback said.

Tim Counts, an ICE spokesman, said about two dozen workers were released from the Worthington, Minn., plant the day of the raid. About 25 workers at the Greeley, Colo., plant were released, as were 27 workers from the Grand Island, Neb., plant, all of whom either had dependent children or were pregnant, he said.

He didn't know how many had been released for humanitarian reasons since the day of the raid or how many were released from plants raided in Cactus, Texas; Marshalltown, Iowa; and Hyrum, Utah.

"It was decided on a case-by-case basis," Counts said. "Those people who were released on their own recognizance still must be required to appear (before an administrative immigration judge)."

A phone message left Friday seeking comment from Swift & Co. was not immediately returned.

It was strictly for show- to appear to be "doing something" about the illegal immigration problem.

Out of 1300 arrested, most have opted for voluntary deportation- which means they'll be back in the USA before New Years Day.

And the problem isn't that Americans won't do these jobs- Americans were doing them before the wet ones invaded. It's that not enough Americans will do those jobs for the wages they're paying. 10 years ago, Americans were doing those same jobs at Swift & Co- only they were making $18-$20 an hour, plus benefits. The wetbacks are being paid $11-$12/hour with no benefits.

One criticism of the GOP you hear all the time is that they "just want the cheap labor" for their buddies in big-business. Not Chimpy. He actually thinks letting the beaners flood in will get them to vote for Republicans instead of DemocRats- which, of course will never happen.
