Welcome to FR and thanks for the post. I'm afraid I don't share your optimism because we're now confronted not with an external but a much more insidious internal invasion -- and one which will be irreversible by the time enough people wake up to the catastrophe. Also, during WWII all parties and the people were united by the deadly life or death threat of total war. Today, by contrast, we find ourselves confronted by political parties and leaders pandering to 3 million illegal invaders per year to see who can get their votes and cheap labor. It doesn't matter to them that school districts are facing bankruptcy; that hospitals are forced to curtail emergency public services; that illegal felons in our prisons are costing $3 million per DAY; that the cost for welfare and social services is costing tax payers millions also; that the crime and violence that cross the border with the international drug cartel are costing us billions in law enforcement and social disaster; and, even harder to believe nearly six years after 9/11 we are open to a terrorist attack that could stroll across and kill thousands (or millions?) of Americans. Despite all the bogus claims of the "no borders" lobby that immigrants contribute to our economy many objective studies by serious people have proved this not to be true. In fact, they cost us more they contribute. Much of the billions they earn primes the Mexican economy, NOT ours,since most of it is returned. Even more harmful is the fact that they suppress wages for American workers to the tune of billions. It isn't that they perform jobs Americans won't do -- Americans won't do them for substandard wages and no benefits. And that's what American business interests love! The real tragedy is that we have very few political representatives who are willing to put the welfare of the nation ahead of their desire to compete for free votes and cheap labor. By the time enough people wake up we'll be speaking Spanish -- oh well, just about everything we read and hear already is! (more millions).
