- Without undocumented workers this sorry economy would collapse. I would love to see some Republicans and Conservatives try working in the fields, washing toilets and doing numerous other jobs that take real work. The undocumented workers are the ones who clean the filth in this country day in and day out.
The reason companies and private individuals (including Republicans and Conservatives) hire undocumented workers is that they work better than most Americans doing the same work. They, also, don''''t have to pay them as much (and sometimes, not at all).
They contribute a hundred fold more to this economy than they will ever take out. As stated, the economy would be in even a worse condition under the Republicans than it is now without these hard working and decent people.

Well, after the economy collapsed, there will not be a need for them, will there; besides, these border criminals send most of their money back to where they snuck in here from. - Reply to this comment
- Maybe we shouldn''''t have a wall at all...
Maybe we should buy up the land within 10 miles of the border, build a nice road 10 miles in country, and set up 50 caliber macine gun stations every quater mile. Then invite game players to the ultimate challenge. The purpose would be to see how many jack rabbits yo can get. Of course, we''''d need to make sure we posted signs down range warning folks of the dangers of entering the beaten zone.
Contestants would pay for ammo, the road, and the cost of the firing range.
Bet we could pay it off in less than a year.

As for THIS moron...
"The problem is not Bush you moron. Its Congress. Congress won''''t let us drill for oil off Florida"
Drilling offshore is just more money in GWBs pocket Remember he has his money invested in oil exploration! Not to mention it will be a drop in the bucket WHEN we get oil from offshore in 25 years! Dude YOU need to stop making stupid, ill informed statements about "congress" and get your facts straight before insulting others. - Reply to this comment

Me get MY facts straight? You have NO clue what you are talking about do you. 25 yrs??? It only takes 10 years to go from drilling to refinery to gas pump. Do some research before you spout off. Second, more money in GW''''s pocket?? When are you demo dummies going to get off that lame dead horse. SO Bush gets all the Oil profits Huh? And you know what, if he did make a profit, would that be enough reason to NOT drill for more oil? I don''''t see how that has any bearing on what we should or should not do. AND YES, Congress has shot down every attempt to open up for drilling. And it would NOT be a drop in the bucket. Drill in Alaska, Florida, California, Texas and you have an actual supply. It doesn''''t have to be on the level of opec you idiot, it would be kept stateside to increase OUR supply not the world supply of oil.. Geez, you''''d think some of you would get a 3rd grade education in economics AT LEAST before you opened you mouths.

- Try as I might, this conservative can''''t deny Leviticus 19:34 that states, "But the stranger that dwelleth with you shall be unto you as one born among you, and thou shalt love him as thyself; for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God." Besides, fences are contrary to the whole concept of freedom. Let me finish by quoting Ronald Reagan on the Berlin Wall: "Mr. Gorbachev, Tear down this wall!"
Posted by denn034
Again, another dem totally confusing the Berlin wall with the border fence. They have completely different purposes. The Berlin wall was built to keep East Germans IN and to keep 1 country divided. The Border fence is to keep people OUT and 2 countries divided geographically. And fences exist everywhere in the US. So is the fence around YOUR yard anti freedom? No. Why? Because you have a RIGHT to keep people off your property. Guess what? So does the US. Build the wall. Its about time we do something and stop letting the demodummies halt any form of immigration reform. - Reply to this comment
