Somewhere I read that Michelle Obama said the illegal "immigrants" should not have to live in fear of the raids.

Please post a link to this info...

I seem to remember reading somewhere that John McCain was thinking about hiring some illegals for some lawn work or maybe even for VP.....

Keep in mind the vast majority of illegal immigrants in this country come from countries and cultures where daily deception, lying and breaking the law are the norm. This is one of the primary reasons why they come here illegally to begin with, and why they are so brazen in their disregard for our laws once they are here. Culture is amazingly persistent from generation to generation, and anyone who thinks these new illegal immigrants will be assimilated into the dominant Anglo culture is truly kidding himself.

Really wish she would stay out of it.
These are not just undocumented immigrants, they are illegal aliens. They are commiting a crime just by being here without the legal paperwork. The illegals then add to the criminal activities by false and/or stolen Social Security numbers and other identification.
The fines for the employers of the illegals should be raised considerably with some added jail time. Most employers know whether the workers have false or no legal documentation.

Correct. And there are disturbing tactics taking place by supporters of illegals such as trying to make the legal citizens of this country feel guilty or trying to label the legal citizen as racist or phobic of immigrants. They also label the illegals as undocumented workers which, in most cases is a crock.

I still support very limited legal immigration to some extent but at what point do we takae it seriously and enforce a checks and balance system? At what point do we realize this country is in some serious financial trouble and cannot afford to take on any more poor, uneducated immigrants whether they are legal or not? If we keep turning a blind eye to this and other problems such as "free" trade, we will eventually lose the American way of life.

It may be time to take a look at the wording on the plaque at the Statue of Liberty and in the constitution and revise it accordingly for the sake of preserving this country for current legal citizens and their future generations.

A fence would go a long way towards stemming the tide of illegal immigration into this country. A fence would be imperfect, and some people would still get across the border. But properly done, a fence could stop 99% of the illegal interlopers (and drugs and other illegal items) who are now crossing our southern border. There is too much pressure from Latin America''s failed societies and burgeoning populations to do anything else. We need to be realistic about the unfortunate fact that the time has come for a physical (not virtual) fence all the way along our border with Mexico. I would be very pleased to see my tax dollars spent this way.

Face it we will never stop illegal immigration as long has there is money to be made. Which is what America is all about right?

Wasting money building a fence along the boarder will only result in a more crafty "Super" illegal immigrant because the fence will weed out the weak, dumb and over weight immigrant that could not get over under or around the fence.

All the new Homes that Americans purchase today are built by Undocumented Hispanics that are paid in Cash by all the Major House Developers. Yes, they do not pay Income Taxes. I have 5 brother-in-laws in the Construction Industry.

If your brothers employ illegals they should be in prison...

I promise to earn respect as long as you earn your legal papers to be in this country.

Folks,
According to the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Center for Diseases Control, Legal Hispanics have a very High Positive birth rate and Anglo-Saxon Whites have a High Negative birth rate. At current birth rates, Legal Hispanics will become the Majority race in the entire USA by 2042. If Whites continue to give Hispanics more poverty and a poor education, the birth rates for Legal Hispanics will increase further meaning the Majority status will happened before 2042.

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/08/13/national/main4349428.shtml


By 2042, several new laws will be passed by the U.S. Congress and Signed by the U.S. President:
-No more Raids.
-Amnesty for all Undocumented Aliens.
-Elimination of the Quota system in the Immigration laws.
-Return of Stolen U.S. Territories back to Mexico.
-Spanish as the Official Language.
-Outlaw the Republican Party.
-Not place the Whites on the Endanger Species Act listing.

Don''''t you people know that many of those "fake" ss numbers are stolen from legal citizens? Why do you think the government charges them with stealing identities? ----

So the IRS doesn''t think it''s strange that Bob the electronic engineer in Florida also seems to be collecting a pay check from the chicken plucking factory in Mississippi.

"is your ? in jest?? "
"if the SS# is fake, chances are so are the names"
Posted by sbbm at 07:26 PM

Yes in jest to a point. You would think the IRS would be aware of what numbers they have given out. The fact is they collect billions of dollars a year on these fake SSN''''s that they will never have to pay back in SS or medicare. So they have no reason to correct this hole which helps the illegal doc business
