For once I agree with the MSM, that the expression “illegal alien” is so overused that it is vitiated, and no longer carries the weight it should.

However, I strongly disagree with their replacement of “undocumented immigrant”, as that is a bold faced lie.

Instead, I think conservatives should restore the context of “illegal alien”, by instead calling them what they are: “Mexican citizens”. Because this is downright accurate.

They are *not* immigrants, and many do not wish to become American citizens. Instead they want to work here and profit from us, benefit from the generosity of welfare intended for *our* citizens, get a free education, yet give little to our nation in return.

By calling them what they are, “Mexican citizens”, it puts both what they are, and the generosity liberals want to extend to them in perspective.

Liberals want to give Mexican citizens free health care.

Liberals want to give Mexican citizens in-state tuition at our state universities.

Liberals want to give Mexican citizens welfare, food stamps, and all the other benefits that Americans pay for with their taxes.

When put in these terms, “illegal aliens” are no longer what the public associates with them, they are, in effect, “foreign aid to Mexico.”

They are Mexican citizens.

So let’s turn around this effort by the MSM to lie to the public, and insist on calling Mexican citizens what they are.

AssPress is LYING when it says they are “undocumented immigrants”. They carry FALSIFIED DOCUMENTS, some obtained through government offices with under the table kickbacks (they aren’t all manufactured at flea markets).
