Senate approves fence, guest worker program- and citizenship possibility for illegals

The Senate has approved a 370-mile, triple-layered fence and 500 miles of vehicle barriers along the border with Mexico- along with a guest worker program and apparently some feature extending the possibility of citizenship for at least some illegals.

Rep. James Sennsenbrunner (R-Wisc) and other immigration "hawks" continue to misuse the word "amnesty" in order to oppose guest worker provisions and other details of the bill which would allow illegals to remain in the country under any circumstances.

The evolution of the Senate version of the immigration bill continues.
