This is one of those rare instances in politics that truly make sense.
How anyone in the American Political system, even thinks that it is Alright to take care of people from another country Before they take care of a LEGAL or NATURALIZED citizen, is just beyond comprehension. It's MINDNUMBINGLY PAINFUL!
Forget the Fact that I'm out of Work.
Forget the Fact that I am paying my own way through School(Yes out of my own Pocket)
Forget the fact that I have done everything you are supposed to do as an American Citizen(Work And pay Taxes, Pay my own way)
Forget the fact that their are Honest people here in the U.S. that Bust their ASS'S for most of their lives to get to where they are.
Only to see a United States Douchebag of a Politician Tell Me and You that some poor deprived Mexican citizen that wont lift a fucking finger to help his own useless country, Defend or even protect it; Deserves it all for FREE.
Mr Reid,With all due respect; You can Kiss my Ass.

The Senate on Saturday blocked a bill that would have created a path to citizenship for certain illegal immigrant students who came to the United States as children, completed two years of college or military service and met other requirements, including passing a criminal background check...
In a floor speech, Senator Richard J. Durbin, Democrat of Illinois, a main champion of the Dream act, urged a yes vote. “I want to make it clear to my colleagues, you won’t get many chances in the United States Senate, in the course of your career, to face clear votes on the issue of justice,” he said.
“Thousands of children in American who live in the shadows and dream of greatness,” he said. “They are children who have been raised in this country. They stand in the classrooms and pledge allegiance to our flag. They sing our ‘Star-Spangled Banner’ as our national anthem. They believe in their heart of hearts this is home. This is the only country they have ever known.”

DREAM Act Would Cost Taxpayers $6.2 Billion Per Year, Group Says
Prepare to say goodbye to America!
This is one of those ignorant things that Politicians do to get some more credit with non Americans.
With all the crap going on in the United States, someone in power(Harry Reid)thinks it a better idea to help out Non Residents, Rather than put his effort into Helping out those People he supposedly works for.
Better to help another country I guess, than to help your own.

A group advocating for tighter immigration laws estimates that a hotly debated bill that would give tens of thousands of illegal immigrants who attend college or join the military a path to legal status would cost taxpayers $6.2 billion a year and "crowd out" U.S. students in the classroom.
A new report from the Center for Immigration Studies says the so-called DREAM Act, which would give more than 2 million young immigrants brought to the United States before the age of 16 a chance to become legal residents, could erode the educational opportunities available to U.S. citizens.
Wendy Sefsaf, a spokeswoman for the Immigration Policy Center, said CIS has "a very common formula," which factors the costs of anything without the benefits.
Her group cited an estimate by the liberal Center for American Progress that it would cost $48.6 billion to deport more than 2 million illegal immigrants who were raised in the U.S.
"The U.S. economy doesn't need more deportations; it needs more college graduates," she said, citing a Georgetown University report that shows Americans in 2018 will fall short of achieving 22 million new college degrees -- the number some say is needed to stay globally competitive -- by at least 3 million.
As a person who is out of work, and trying to pay His way through college right now, I am DEEPLY offended at the thought that it is better to Give my Tax dollars to an Illegal Immigrant, Before even looking at my Student loan Application.
F**king Bastards !
