Etc....
On the other hand:
A lot of voters have lawn services possibly employing illegals
A lot of voters bought houses built in part by illegals.
A lot of voters have used house cleaning services employimg illegals.
A lot of voters drop their kids off at daycares employing illegals.
A lot of voters dine at restaurants which employ illegals, including friendly waiters..
A lot of voters see illegals building and maintaining roads.
A lot of voters work in office buildings, hospitals, etc.. with cleaning services employing illegals.

A lot of voters attend churches that have outreach programs for impoverished Hispanic immigrants.

A lot of voters are Christians who know compassion instead of just hatred, envy and jealousy.
The real macro numbers are also on the side of immigrants. They are replacing the 40 million aborted workers. They are essential to sustain our economy. The phony studies by FAIR and similar ZPG groups will not stand up in Congressional hearings when compared with OMB, Dept of Labor, Census, and other official government statistics.
Add the testimony of the Secretary of Homeland Security that we have to have the immigration reforms in order to secure our borders from terrorists, and the sell isn't going to be very difficult at all.
I don't agree with it, but that is your right.
Your echoing of Mexico's President Fox (and you are echoing him almost ver batim) on the rationale that the United States now "needs" the additional labor from Mexico to replace an entire generation (est. 40 million) aborted U.S. citizens . . well . . .
I take that one with a grain of salt. Vincente is basically grasping at straws on that one, even though morally I do agree with him on the reason for it being the 40 million abortions.
Apparently, the majority of those holding public office at the congressional and senate levels agree with you also - evidence being the open border with practically zero enforcement or prosecutions of employers hiring illegal aliens.
Can that be sustained without substantial backlash?
If you truly believe this, then you are even more ignorant than I had previously thought.
A lot of voters are Christians who know compassion instead of just hatred, envy and jealousy.
I wonder how many of the 47% of Hispanic voters who voted in favor of the anti-illegal alien measure Prop 200 in Arizona know hatred, envy, and jealousy when it comes to illegal aliens.
Where I work in Memphis, TN is almost half illegal aliens. We're talking a major warehouse from a big name company in the center of the country. Don't try to tell us that MOST people aren't having trouble with illegals cause it is BULLSH!T.
Take that open borders nonsense somewhere else.
With all due respect, Rod. I thank the good Lord above that you are a minorities minority.
No one is being hurt by ILLEGALS? Haven't read the news lately have you. Crime by ILLEGALS is growing every day in every state. People are tired of seeing these law breakers walking around with impunity defying our government. If the ones in power won't do something about it, then they will be changed. Count on it.
