TRY THIS THE NEXT TIME YOU STAY @ A MOTEL/HOTEL

AP: Millions of Visa Overstays Overlooked

MEXICO CITY (AP) -- Millions of illegal immigrants in the United States never jumped the U.S.-Mexico border where Congress wants to erect impenetrable walls and President Bush is sending National Guard troops to patrol. They never sneaked in at all.

The little-acknowledged reality is that nearly half the estimated 12 million undocumented foreigners in the United States entered on bona fide U.S. visas - and simply never left. Authorities call them "overstays" who have been largely overlooked in the vitriolic debate on immigration.

"The southwestern border gets all the attention, but it's staggering the number of people who come and overstay their visa," said Dean Boyd, a spokesman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Washington. "It's a very large-scale problem."

A study by the Washington-based Pew Hispanic Center last month indicated that 45 percent of the undocumented migrants in the United States overstayed legal visas.

Yeah try this the next time you stay at a hotel/motel and see what happens then!

We can't do a damn thing right in the country and it gets worse each day. This nation isn't being governed and hasn't been for a very long time, its simply being given away piece, by piece!
