I was born in Springfield, Ohio. My wife, Fran, and I have lived our entire lives less than 10 miles from this city.
When we were dating in high school, we would go there to see movies at the Regent or State Theater or to eat fried clams at Howard Johnson’s. I remember Fran taking the bus about eight miles from our hometown, Yellow Springs, to Springfield to shop at Wren’s Department Store. Over the years, we’ve eaten countless doughnuts from Schuler’s Bakery, worshiped at St. Raphael Catholic Church and we logged many work hours there when I represented Springfield in the U.S. House and Senate.
Springfield has a rich history of providing refuge for the oppressed and being a place of opportunity. As a stop on the Underground Railroad, the Gammon House, which still stands, was a safe haven for escaped slaves seeking freedom. And, as a stop on the Old National Road, America’s first east/west federal highway, Springfield attracted many settlers both before and after the Civil War. Immigrants from Ireland, Greece, Germany, Italy and other countries helped build the city into what it is today.
For a long time, commerce and manufacturing flourished in Springfield, which earned the title “Champion City” after the founding there of the agriculture implement giant Champion Machine Company.
But the city hit tough times in the 1980s and 1990s, falling into serious economic decline as manufacturing, rail commerce and good-paying jobs dwindled. Now, however, Springfield is having a resurgence in manufacturing and job creation. Some of that is thanks to the dramatic influx of Haitian migrants who have arrived in the city over the past three years to fill jobs.
They are there legally. They are there to work.

I think all 67 towns and boroughs in America named Springfield are under tremendous stress from this illegal alien invasion. The Simpsons should do a parody about it.
Indirection. The issue is the overwhelming number of invaders dumped in one place. And don’t you dare call it “replacement migration.’

E. Pluribus Unum remains silent. He never comments on his own posts. He just sits there like a spider, collecting free information to feed back to his masters at the NYT. Disingenuous and intellectually dishonest ppl bother me.
While there are also radical factions on the right that don’t want other races coming to America, it doesn’t negate the fact that there is truly a great replacement underway. [1]
“The left is racist and wrong and the kind of extreme elements on the right are wrong, but nevertheless, the left is doing that, and it’s okay and it’s right to call them out on it,” Miller says, adding, “In fact, I think it’s moral to call them out on it.” [2]

Why don’t you tell us what you think about this thread?! You’re not a potted plant, are you?
I am the “Whinging Truffle of Tripe” and I debunk you NYT lies and hold you to account for your crimes. Deal with it, stinker noodle.
I did in post #1. Pretty much says it all.
I am not one of those people like you who love to hear themselves talk.

I answered your initial salvo. You didn’t even read it, did you? You are not paying attention because you post this garbage to either mine for information, which means you are lazy, or you want to start a fight, which makes you a schlemiel.
Tell you what, I’ll stop debunking your crap if you stop posting NYT articles to this forum without you participating in the subsequent discussion. Do you have any ideas of your own?
Admin, am I doing anything wrong by posting articles from the gaslight press that Mr. Poodle doesn’t like?

The moderators here are very fair. You are going to lose that argument too. Continue to post your NYT garbage and I will continue to fact-check the content. First you try to correct my grammar and punctuation. Then you resort to an argument from authority by presenting your credentials.
Why not try a logical argument based on reasonable assumptions? Feel free to use rhetoric and semantics which form the basis of liberal arts. Not invalid syllogisms or circular reasoning, assuming the premise in your conclusions, ensuring a predetermined outcome. You should go into climate science. The government is handing out grants for fake research.
You resort to repeated ad hominem attacks and then you run to HR like a beady-eyed rat snake Typical of a pointy headed liberal You probably wear a silly hat too. By the way, which one’s pink.
Mother, do you think they’ll drop the bomb?
Mother, do you think they’ll like this song?
Mother, do you think they’ll try to break my balls?
Ooh, aah, mother, should I build the wall?
Mother, did it need to be so, high?
You really do love hearing yourself talk.

What you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. Billy Madison
First, I noted it was a NYT article. Then, I would more likely recognize what Vivek found out than what the Ohio governor says.
For posting things you don't like.
Wow.
...may God have mercy on your soul.
For posting things you don’t like.

1) If you encounter a conservative and you’re forced to debate them call them RACIST or you’ll lose.
2) If you encounter a conservative online HAVE THEM BANNED or you’ll be forced to debate them.
3) If you see a conservative news channel call their sponsors and HAVE THEM BANNED, or they may open the public’s eyes.
