THE WASHINGTON TIMES has a major story on illegal immigration -- and what our government isn't doing to stop it. Quotable:
"Taxpayers each year spend more than $7 billion to educate the children of illegal aliens, $1 billion for health care and emergency treatment, and nearly $3 billion to detain illegal aliens in state and local jails."

"The vast majority of illegal aliens flooding into America � an estimated 1 million a year � draw little attention once they pass through the "border region"

"Nearly half of the 48 al Qaeda terrorists tied to violent acts in the United States between 1993 and 2001 committed significant immigration-law violations prior to those events but were never detained or deported."
