Illegal Immigration (Shameless Vanity)

Ah yes, a shameless vanity. Anyways, I'm writing a paper on illegal immigration and was wondering if anybody had good sources that illustrate how illegal citizens affect the political culture of the United States, i.e. politicians pandering to groups, etc.

Thanks in advance, and sorry if I'm violating any rules with this. Hey, at least I didn't put it in breaking news.

Just remember that 98% of it is peoples' opinions, not facts. Most of the sites used as "sources" have an agenda and are composed mostly of the author's opinions with a few facts thrown into make the author sound like he/she actually knows what they're talking about.

Remember, when writing a paper, using an Internet site is usually frowned upon by instructors unless the site is either a site with official records or is run by a reputable organization (Jane's Information Group would be an example). Using articles by people with an agenda like Michelle Malkin or using press releases by Tom Tancredo would be the quickest way to ensure you receive a low or failing grade.

Alrighty, thanks guys. I think I have enough sources. Much appreciated!

Oh, haha, by the way...I'm not really a newbie, in case people were wondering. I just haven't posted many vanities. Vanity newbie, maybe?

Thanks again!

That is very good advice. Let me give you some well known conservatives on the subject.

--snip Illegal immigration is like any other illegal business practice: a way for unscrupulous people to exploit others to gain an advantage over their law-abiding competitors.

DOBBS: Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is warning of the threat of terrorists entering this country through the same routes as those used by illegal aliens. Secretary Rumsfeld, traveling in South America, warned that enemies look for weaknesses and take advantage of them.

DONALD RUMSFELD, SECRETARY OF DEFENSE: The risk is that some of these human-smuggling routes into our country from this hemisphere could be used just as easily for terrorists.

DOBBS: And three million illegal aliens are estimated to be entering this country this year.

Secretary Rumsfeld also said the United States has to be, as he put it, smarter and quicker in securing our borders. The federal government's failure to secure those borders is leading individual states to take action. Arizona's Proposition 200, which limits state benefits for illegals, passed overwhelmingly two weeks ago. Now at least half a dozen other states are considering similar measures.

3 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS TO FLOOD THE U.S. THIS YEAR

The U.S.’s borders, rather than become more secure since 9/11, have grown even more porous and the trend has accelerated in the past year. Based on a TIME investigation, it’s fair to estimate that the number of illegal aliens flooding into the U.S. this year will total 3 million, enough to fill 22,000 Boeing 737-700 airliners, or 60 flights every day. It will be the largest wave since 2001 and roughly triple the number of immigrants who will come to America by legal means, TIME reports in its cover story , "Who Left the Door Open?" (on newsstands Monday, Sept. 13th).

TONY BLAIR, BRITISH PRIME MINISTER): The public concern about this is very simple. It's a play by the rules concern. It's a concern that people, for example, who come in to claim asylum should be genuine refugees, that people who come in to work or study here should genuinely be coming in to work or study, and therefore what you need in place are strict controls that work in the interest of the country that means that only the people who play by the rules come in, and those that don't, DON'T!
