"The term 'illegal alien' works to discredit the honest and thoughtful discussion that needs to take place in reforming immigration policy."

Uhhh, no, idiot, it identifies them as precisely what they are....aliens (that means: owing political allegiance to another country or government; foreign) and they are illegal (reiterating: not lawful). It's called correct use of the language (which in America is English, btw). You should try it sometime. Simplifies things immensely when you use the correct terminology in commucications.
