Geraldo Demands To O’Reilly: No More Saying ‘Illegal Alien,’ Because It’s Like Saying ‘Negro’

I keep saying, that “illegal alien” is so overused as an expression that it has lost its punch. However, do not accept *their* substitute for it. Instead call illegal aliens “Mexican citizens”, because it restores perspective.

These are citizens of another country that want American citizens to support them. So why not send foreign aid to Mexico, so they can stay in their country?

Guaranteed, liberals DO NOT want to remind everybody that illegal aliens are just some of the 6.6 BILLION people in the world that are NOT American citizens.

You want to pay for them, too?

I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to discover that O’Reilly and Rivers go out for a few beers after the taping; sharing a few laughs about how they are yanking the viewer’s chains...

Bingo! I am sure both of them look down their noses at us. Glad I don’t watch either one of them.

What Geraldo doesn't understand is whatever word is used to describe people who break into our country - eventually that word will become ‘dirty’.

It's NOT the word that's the problem - it's the people representing that word - they're offensive.

If we used the term “undocumented democrat’ to describe these people, in twenty years that term will be a offensive. We could call illegal aliens the ‘sweet smell of roses people’ and in twenty years that term will be a slur...

Geraldo needs to knock the chip off his shoulder and get real...

You’re probably thinking of the days before Juan fully went off the rails. I used to be able to stand him, but not anymore.

“Criminal invader” has a nice ring to it, as well.

So what is saying "United NEGRO College fund" like?

Geraldo should definitely condemn anyone who contributes to a fund with such an inflammatory name. I think Gates gave a billion dollars a few years back. But that assumes there is some actual logic or consistency to Geraldo's race baiting and bigotry.

I believe ‘criminal alien’ is the correct term and should be used!

That's good ... another appropriate term is "crimmigrants".

Geraldo, come on..illegal refers to breaking a law. How can he assume what he is saying has any merit. He must know some crazy people. I never relate that word to immigration. This guy comes across himself as being racist because he has to speak about race. If we break the law (no matter our background), we have to either pay a fine, hire an attorney and possibly onto court (missing work as well)..these are the first things that come to my mind. He's a troublemaker/very judgmental to generalize such a claim. Why did Foxnews ever bring him back into the public debate on anything since he's a very narrow-minded liberal on many issues.

Then by all means, we should just refer to them as 'democrats'.

Criminal Mexicans - the large majority are from Mexico or came up through Mexico.

Here is a thought-exercise for Rivera:

Given the proposition that someone who bypass legal immigration processes is not an "illegal alien," but simply an "undocumented immigrant," does it follow that someone who breaks out of prison is not an "escaped convict," but simply on "undocumented furlough?"

You can break in and be okay, but you cannot break out and be okay?

Bonus question: Given that the Constitution gives the power "to establish a uniform rule of Nationalization" to Congress, is it unconstitutional for a person who is not even a citizen to define their own state of naturalization? Isn't calling someone an "undocumented immigrant" the same as letting the illegal alien define the rule of naturalization instead of Congress?

Outstanding work. Not sure BOR could come up with this on the fly, or cares either way.

Worth getting to him, I would think. He is good about working in things from viewers, good or bad.

Nah just something about Juan is, he seems honest.

Irritating. You bet. But he at least seems to be speaking from the heart. Or maybe this is just my humble opinion...

Geraldo is just full of it.
