The Houston Chronicle is liberal and generally does not support Perry.

They apparently do support illegal aliens.
Educated immigrants are a benefit to the US.
But no one will ever convince me that illegal aliens are a net plus for America, in any way shape or form. They aren't and never will be.

...I disagree. For a kid to even have a chance at not becoming a complete communist after 4 years of indoctrination in most of Americas colleges, they need a decent upbringing by law abiding parents that teach them common sense with values and principles. Illegals obviously have neither.

Perry is right about educating illegal immigrants "In l997, the National Research Council published a major study on immigration. It found that an immigrant with a college education is a huge net plus for the United States."
Hmmm...what is the difference in these two statements?

Educating illegals and their kids is the moral equivalent to leaving crumbs on the floor - it attracts and sustains vermin.

What are the percentages of illegal immigrants that finally become legal immigrants and then citizens of our country?
Those would be some interesting numbers

Given all the jobless American college grads, I have to disagree.

Zero. Unless they get amnesty.
Immigrants can’t apply for legal status after entering the country illegaly.

They will earn the money here and then send billions to Mexico.

I voted for Perry 3 times for Gov. I do not support him or the 181 Texas legislators,in giving illegals in-state tuition, while your kid can't get past the college admission office.
The Chronicle is a very Liberal rag not worthy of being on the bottom of a parakeet cage.

Bullshit.
This is no different than TAKING Taxpayers' money and providing College Degrees to inmates, who are ALSO law-breakers getting benefits on the public dime.
At least Inmates are U.S. Ciitzens, whereas the illegals are foreigners who committed a crime, and we REWARD them?

I think there needs to be a billboard campaign across the Country. Billboards should read:
il·le·gal [ih-lee-guhl]
adjective
1. Forbidden by law or statute
2. Contrary to or forbidden by official rules, regulations, etc.
