Very few immigrants are terrorists. In fact many terrorists are born here and are citizens! Our insane bureacracy needs reform and that is part of the President's plan.

Protecting the nation requires the reforms involving illegal workers. Illegal workers are not terrorists and they need to be allowed to work in jobs that Americans will not do.

There have been a real lot of discussions about this over the past few years. There are plenty of US citizens to do the work, if the work conditions and salaries are reasonable. What is happening is that the security of jobs for citizens, between outsourcing on one end of the spectrum and foreign labor on the other, has deteriorated horribly over the past four years.

A point of logic. You typed that "illegal workers are not terrorists", and it's probably true that almost all of them are not. It would be best to say that "almost all illegal workers are not terrorists". Even with that, the effect they are having on our economy, social stability, culture, and services is profound. It may not be terrorism, but if this continues it will just as assuredly lead to our demise as a great nation.

"Very few immigrants are terrorists."

I agree, the immigrants we are discussing are entering our country illegally and putting an incredible drain on our social services, not engaging in terrorism. They are bankrupting hospital emergency rooms near the border. Millions are working for cash, therefore not paying taxes. They are sending billions of dollars back to their own countries to finance even more illegals' trips into our country.

While not terrorists, a healthy percentage ARE criminals. Thats right! If you were a criminal wouldn't you rather rape rob and murder in the USA?

Our prisons are becoming overcrowded at an alarming pace due to the incarceration of these "illegals" and it will be our tax dollars that pay to "rehabilitate" them.

The terrorist element is simply entering our country the same way. It's far too easy.

"Illegal workers are not terrorists and they need to be allowed to work in jobs that Americans will not do."

Please examine your premises.

The word "illegal" is a tip off, what they're doing is "illegal". The rule of law take precedence here.

It is a lie that the "illegals" are doing jobs Americans won't do. If the "illegals" were not here, those jobs would be performed by Americans, there is no question about that.

I can appreciate that you support the positions of the president and think that those policies are the best course of action.

Logically, I cannot agree.
