Mickey Kaus has a good little essay on this.
I have a suggestion: A few years ago my niece was speaking of a class of people as “Canadians.” I wondered about that because the characteristics she was discussing were not in any way attributable to Canadians. I suddenly realized what she was talking about and began to laugh. It’s a great illustration that no matter what you call an identifiable group, people see through your euphemism and know what you’re referring to. So here’s a suggestion, let’s change the term from “illegal alien” to … oh, “Martian.” Everyone will know what you mean and it will drive the Left nuts. What can they say, that the real Martians may object?

We should.call them “illegal aliens”.
We should call faggots “faggots”.
We should call Barack Hussein Soetoro Odinga Obama a communist.

I have always found “Wetback” perfectly serviceable; as do my Mexican relatives.

Excellent comment. judging from the rest of the comments on this thread, I am guessing that my suggestion of 'human beings' won't be all that well received.
