You disagree with Bush? Your not willing to give him a chance on illegal immigration?

Usual complainin belly aching group from every thread, "I ain't voting for Bush, he likes Mexicans, my God!! Can you believe he likes Mexicans, they don't belong picking oranges legally, they should be only in the shadows- a legal guest working program, oh my, the Mexicans are going to take my job as a CPA after their done working at the Motel 6; oh dear their cooking meth too!!"

Same ole chicken little garbage I expect- nothing to offer but a whole lot of screaming.

What Bush apparently doesn't realize is that making them legal isn't going to solve anything, long term. If our citizens really won't do the kind of work that illegals do, there must be something seriously wrong with our society; something that breeds lazy people.

In 20 years time, when these immigrants' children grow up, they will be "infected" by our lazy culture and not be willing to pick the lettuce their fathers picked. Then what? Ship in some more illegals and repeat the cycle?

It is evident you do not live on the border and do not have to put up with the daily dangers.

Paco may turn into a veritable Paragon of Virtue by the time he reaches your location, but when he passes through Cochise County he is at the very least a monumental pain in the ass.

Quite often he turns criminal while passing through here. Vandalism, burglary, theft, car-jacking, mugging, rape. Acting as mules for the drug smugglers. Leaving millions of pounds of trash and human waste all over our landscape.

Some folks ask if You disagree with Bush? Your not willing to give him a chance on illegal immigration? Lets see, a republican house, a republican senate, a republican White House, and the biggest reason of all any executive can have to secure the border, A WAR! And what does El Presidente do? Keeps the borders open and rewards 12 million criminals for invading our country.

deeeeepoooorrrrrtation the D word. Say it. Embrace it.

But hey, lets give him another chance - to do what? The same thing again - another 12 million in 2008?

Start learning spanish amigos.
Watch President Bush's numbers go down again. Every time he cozies up with Generalissimo Fox, he loses more votes. Why is W. throwing the election away?
No Border - No Voto, Si Border - Si Voto

BS - I've hit the abuse button on comments that were clearly racist on other threads. Little smears like "gee, I wonder if they were illegal" when the subject of an article sported an Hispanic surname. I've called them to task.

Yet, I have a problem with encouraging full-blown immigration. Nothing racist about it.

I don't fear that they will take my job either, by any stretch. What I fear is paying for the $8 head of lettuce you pro-illegals always challenge us with.

We already get the $8 head of lettuce. It just comes by way of taxes to support bi-lingual education, social programs, a burening prison system and also by way of increased healthcare costs, etc.

The problem is, the money I have to pay is filtered through an inefficient bureaucracy, so it ends up costing me MORE than the $8 head of lettuce.

Take away the costs of cheap labor, and I am more than happy to pay $8 for the head of lettuce. That, or implement Prop 187 and deny services to illegals AND legals (and even U.S. born citizens as far as I'm concerned), and then I won't have a problem with any immigration. At that point, those who come here would be the ones I welcome with open arms.

"I ain't voting for Bush, he likes Mexicans, my God!!

Why is Bush deporting all those Haitians? If we need so many uneducated low-skilled workers --- what's the deal? There are hundreds of thousands of Haitians willing to come and take all these jobs being created --- why just Mexicans? Is that racist or not?
