[edit] License tagging for Image:McCarthy sig.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:McCarthy sig.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

  • ===Issues of Immigration, Illegal Immigration, and Border Security===

Gingrich encounters friction with many conservatives in his own party by favoring the idea of legalizing the illegal aliens that reside in the United States, and through a process, granting them citizenship. This is evidenced by his recent quote: "Millions of illegal immigrants are here because Americans are hiring them. They have jobs in your neighborhood and you know it. They may be serving you lunch at a restaurant, washing your car, and mowing your lawn. They are probably working on the construction projects you drive past each day. Keeping these hard-working people illegal makes them vulnerable to criminals and keeps them from playing responsible roles in our communities."[citation needed]

Although unpopular among the conservative wing of the GOP (and many pro-union "blue dog" Democrats), Gingrich supports the idea of a "guest workers program" for Mexican citizens. This means that a predetermined number of Mexican citizens would be allowed to work in the United States, but would have to return to Mexico after an alloted period of time. Moreover, Gingrich supports the possibility of these "guest workers" gaining eventual citizenship. Although an H1A visa which allows for "unlimited guest workers" already exists, that plan has the corporations that hire Mexicans, paying for their health care and housing. The new guest workers program would differ in the sense that those services be paid for by tax dollars. The "guest worker" position is clearly illustrated in a recent statement where Gingrich says: "We need a guest worker program to ensure that guest workers pay taxes, get driver's licenses, buy auto insurance, abide by the law, and that filters out criminals and potential terrorists. The program should not be an automatic qualification for citizenship, though eventual citizenship should be held out as an opportunity."[citation needed]

[edit] Suggestion

Here's a friendly suggestion about Wikipedia etiquette. Please be courteous to your fellow Wikipedians by removing the in-use template that you place on a page if you do not intend to edit the page for a while. See Newt Gingrich. It can be confusing to others and discourage legitimate edits. Thank you. Ward3001 18:26, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
