Perhaps it was an error to abandon the traditional committee process. But that is where we are. and we need more time to flesh out the grand compromise. the grand bargain which we have structured so far. If we are not able to legislate. we are not going to be able to provide for people who are interested in bringing 11 million undocumented immigrants out of the shadows. which is the main benefit that comes from those who want to proceed in the traditional American way to welcome the immigrants under a systemized plan. If we dont have comprehensive reform. we are not going to provide the border controls and the employer sanctions to stop illegal immigration. It may be this is our last best chance. I would urge all sides to take a deep breath and to rethink positions on all sides and try to find a rational. bipartisan way to proceed.
