The dirty secret is that before the recession, illegals in SoCal, were making $20 per hour and not paying taxes or union dues.

Where?

There is something profoundly stinky in your screed, Teddy, and do you know what it is that smells so bad?

The entire thing reads like something that may have been written by Luis Gutierrez, the IL Dem congressman who is a pro-Hispanic racist.

As a Southern California contracter I missed that, where were you running into all those $20.00 illegals?

Why aren’t these festering arse orifices back in their own country complaining about their immigration policies. Mexico would have the Guatamalan criminal handcuffed and sent back to the border.

A day without Mexicans and this country would be just fine. Imagine a day without the US taxpayer to coddle the illegal Mexican.

Sick of this crap!!!

Even the posters on Solon are reading this guy the riot act.

Where are all these people, Left or Right, that want massive illegal immigration. If I am not mistaken it is close to 75% of the population that wants the borders closed and less than 50% agree with any type of ‘path to citizenship’ (amnesty).

I ran Teddy Cruz’ letter through a tranlator from English to Spanish then back to English, and the result was “Gimmedat.”

The Guat thinks uncle sam should go get all his friends and neighbors in Guatemala and bring them to the US.

I bet they have lots of stories that the media isn’t interested in about rich liberals and their cute, young, foreign, live in maids who are very vulnerable and impressionable, and hardly a match for wealthy surgeons and important rich people whose homes they live in, and from what I have seen, lonely and bored, and the house is their whole world.

Ugh! I am sickened. Did Cruz test this letter for weaponized ebola and entrovirus?

Illegals have such a sense of entitlement. I saw two morbidly obese ones the other day at Lowe’s. Briefly considered climbing into the ride-on and mowing them down, but decided against it. A day will come when there is justice for the taxpayer burdened by these freeloading bums who snuck in like roaches.

GO BACK TO GUATEMALA! Write a letter to your president there on why he sucks. Don’t bother the original Cruz, who has more class and style than the entire diseased illegal population put together!

Bring on the America-loving, communist-hating, Eastern European immigrants!

Oh, I forgot. They aren't "real immigrants" in the same way that Sarah Palin is not a "real woman."

The author certainly has verbal diarrhea but with all those words I’m still not sure if he’s talking about American cities or los ciudades de la home countries. ???

If city governments didn’t let their cities become crime-infested, $hit-holes and forcing the middle class to flee then the wouldn’t be defendant on new illegal immigrant masses to be the new victims.

Please, if I have to read another one of these ‘the United States owes us, needs to pay us, should allow us to steal everything just because’...idiots, I’m going to be sick.

He says he’s an American but only freeloaders think like he does. There isn’t an ounce of respect for the American dream in him, just his hand out yelling gimme, gimme, we foreigners deserve...

The land value in Tijuana is not our responsibility. It’s just makes no sense that people complain about the differences in wealth between the US and Mehico when the richest man in the world is from Mehico. Why aren’t these clowns complaining to him.

Finally the low info person talks about policies being anti-democratic. First, we are a republic, not a democracy and if he wants to see democratic, just give every American citizen have the opportunity to vote on whether or not lawbreakers and anchor children get to stay and continue to take advantage of our country. I’m certain that in a democratic vote by citizens, every single one of them would be returned to their home countries and required to remain there for the rest of their natural born lives. Only those who had not broken the law to get here would be allowed to apply to be here if we put it to a democratic vote.

There was so much stupid in that screed it was difficult to decide where to begin.
