"Wow!" said Roy Beck, executive director of Numbers USA, an immigration restrictionist group. "That is really big. It is a very good time for attrition through enforcement. "Wow!" Said Owl_Eagle "I always thought Numbers USA was just against illegal aliens!"

It’s beginning to work, but we have a LONG, LONG way to go.

Yeah. Right. It’s just about winter than this poll sounds like a con job.

a slowing U.S. economy, particularly in the construction industry. I keep seeing this and I wonder where the construction industry is slowing. My son is an iron worker here in central Illinois and he works an awful amount of over time. Even in the winter when it's supposed to be slower.

"The employers are asking for Social Security numbers, proof of ID, stuff they know we don't have," Mr. Crespo said. "I could get some fake papers, but when you don't feel welcome anymore, why return to a place where they close the door on you?"
That is exactly the type of thinking we want. Strictly enforce the existing immigration laws and many will leave voluntarily.

An immigration restrictionist groupWTH???? ARRGGHGHGHG! Stop making the good guys look like the criminals!!!

“It” so far IS enforcement-lite without a completed wall. And we were told the “real full blown it” (employer enforcement and a wall) would not work. Guess it depends on your definition is “IS” is.

It's just one example of course and doesn't imply a trend but my son-in-law, a pipe fitter, just moved from Arizona to California, near L.A. to a job site that is supposed to last 5 years.

How long before Mexico sues the United States for causing this slowdown so as to discriminate against Mexicans?
Think I'm kidding??

“Illegals the Real Scabs”
Not to most unions I’ve heard comment on Illegals.
The union that struck Ralphs and Albertson’s groceries in Southern
California a few years ago was solidly pro-illegal immigration
(it was fun to hear REAL unionists try to explain why that was INSANE to
the union spokes-person pimping for illegal immigration).
And teachers’ unions seem to be pro-Illegal through-and-through;
but it makes sense because they are looking for more students to
keep public schools full while the rational folks pull their kids out
for home-schooling.

I'm sure that will change should a dimocrap attain the presidency in '09.

Two years earlier, that number was about 107,500. INEGI pollsters use a formula to make those estimates based on the percentage of Mexicans age 14 and older who said they would seek work abroad.Abroad? Where is "abroad"?

Just heard a report this morning. The vague report stated that the median price of family dwellings had dropped something like 10% in October. One month...
