The "guest worker" proposal is actually Vicente Fox's plan.

The fact that the enemy within has legs to stand on is pathetic...
Maybe someone can get the Minutemen Loons some folding chairs, then.

I'm vehemently against open borders and illegals, and I'm very much still here.
I thank God everyday for your site, Jim. My wife however, thinks that I belong to a secret cult or an illicit chat room, because she sees me typing and never bothers to see what I'm doing. Oh well..
Regarding illegal immigration. I was with the LAPD in the early 70's. I remember getting a disturbance call and we found 17 illegals living in one house! Even at that time the orders from the city were to do nothing. The invasion started long ago.

The Mexican government is trying to stop Proposition 200 ---- which the American voters of Arizona chose. That to me is about as absurd as anything we've seen --- but no one dares stand up to them. You are correct, Breyer on SCOTUS probably wouldn't, but Scalia and Thomas would.
Look who cares that the Mexican govt. is trying to overturn Prop. 200, they can't, the people who will try to overturn it would be a Clinton/Carter packed 9th circus court in San Francisco.

There is no problem with my "Ants" as far as I am concerned...that's my opinion, and I could care less about yours.
Or at least, no more than you care about mine.
Now, I want you to do me a favor, and I am asking in the nicest way possible...please do not post to me any longer, there is absolutely no reason for you and I to communicate as I am convinced that we will nevr agree on a thing.

. . . when the Bracero Program was folded.

I guess the rules apply to me because my post was deleted and maybe deservedly so but I don't think I was too over the top. So how do you call someone a liar without calling them a liar when the lie to you? :)
Rule #3: Do keep it clean - A bruise or two between Freepers is tolerable, but refrain from abusive attacks, engaging in senseless flame wars, and using profane language. Considering the range of topics we discuss, it's hard to be a family site, but that's what we aim for when at all possible.
To: Luis Gonzalez
Then return the favor. You've asked me that before and I accomodated that --- until you posted to me. It cannot be one way you know.

I think we should care when Mexico starts writing it's stupid comic books, fails to support us with the war in Iraq, condemns the voters of America for not wanting to do what the Mexican government has never wished to do for it's citizens.
The whole massive immigration problem originates in that corrupt but wealthy country and that's where the best fix can take place. It's not going to get fixed until we actually stand up and tell them it's time to get it done because we're not going to continue this.

I AM AGAINST OPEN BORDERS AND ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.
Who isn't? So is President Bush, and you ought to get behind our American leadership to land the immigration reform our country needs.

To: FITZ
Your concern of the internal problems of Mexico is not displaced, but its focus is. We do not have the luxury of waiting for the social, political, and economic conditions in Mexico to improve before we try to reform our immigration policies.

I guess the rules apply to me because my post was deleted and maybe deservedly so but I don't think I was too over the top. So how do you call someone a liar without calling them a liar when the lie to you? :) Youre against illegal immigration, so you can't call anyone a liar. The other folks only claim to be against illegal immigration and are friends with the management, so they can call you a liar.
Yes, it is a double standard, but it's one that's been going on for years and is supported by management. It's just something we have to deal with.
Anyway, it just takes away from the site as everyone can see the hypocrisy of the management and those they protect.

Chill dude. That was a John Wayne quote from True Grit.

Amnesty is not immigration reform.
To: fatima; Marine Inspector
A guest worker program will free up the border patrol to concentrate on stopping terrorists instead of having to fool with harmless gardeners.
Well said. Those who come to be productive guests will run through a gauntlet to get scrutinized, photographed, fingerprinted, and DNA-sampled, while those who continue to violate our borders will get the lion's share of our national security resources.
