Watch this excellent TV news report about a medical researcher named Paul Polak who was replaced by two H-1B visa holders at the University of Chicago.

Here is your first clue to the question: Senator Durbin (D-IL) is the big ham being interviewed in the video who is talking about his bill to reform H-1B. He sounds like a true friend of the working men and women of the USA. According to Durbin he would save people like Polak from being replaced by H-1Bs. Suspicious yet? If not, you should be! Second clue: Guess who introduced the DREAM ACT as an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2008 bill (HR 1585)? I won't keep you guessing -- it was Senator Durbin! Durbin even introduced his lousy excuse of an H-1B/L-1 visa reform to HR 1585 -- right after his sponsorship of the DREAM ACT.

Durbin [D-IL] Amendment information not available. Proposed: Jul 16, 2007. "H-1B and L-1 Visa Fraud and Abuse Prevention Act of 2007" (255) S.Amdt. 2238 by Sen. Durbin [D-IL] Amendment information not available. Proposed: Jul 16, 2007. Be sure to read these excellent articles on the DREAM ACT: http://www.heritage.org/Research/Immigration/bg2069.cfm A Sleeper Amnesty: Time to Wake Up from the DREAM Act http://www.vdare.com/epstein/070917_amnesty.htm Treason Lobby's DREAM Act -- Amnesty For Anchor Adults ***** SEE, I TOLD YOU SO! ***** When Durbin introduced the H-1B reform bill I was one of the very few that were skeptical. I received widespread criticism from immigration reformists for questioning Durbin. Some people even accused me of being a "Democrat Basher" -- which is kind of strange considering the large number of newsletters I devote to bashing Republicans. Even Lou Dobbs was duped by that snake. Dobbs gushed all over Durbin even to the point of plugging his book, which I won't mention because I won't support his drivel with my devalued U.S. dollars! Just for the record, here are just a couple of those newsletters. 2007-04-03 Dubin's bill on H-1BL-1 2007-04-05 hoopla over DurbinGrassley bill to reform H-1BL-1 ***** MY PREDICTION ***** Senator Durbin introduced the reform bill in trade for support of the SKIL bill. Now that the SKIL bill bit the dust you can bet that Durbin will let this one die a silent death. Amd 2238 was a quid pro quo so that Durbin and Grassley could use to vote for SKIL. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.myfoxchicago.com/myfox/pages/ContentDetail?contentId=3377232 Sen.
