I don't defend them for breaking the law, but I don't stick my head in the sand and refuse to recognize reality.

Oh, I'm sorry. I meant to say you excuse them for breaking the law. Big difference.

Reality is that illegals contribute $800 Billion to our GDP,

Only Raul Hinojosa, ethnic apologist, says so. You and the Republican Party getting your talking points from HIM now????

that our economy is dependent upon them,

No, scofflaw employers are "dependent" on them, only in the sense that they don't want to obey the law and pay a wage competitive for LEGAL workers, or pay benefits that taxpaying chumps have to pay for instead. And since that's their "dependency," I'm more than happy to cut them off "cold turkey."

that we have aborted 45 million American babies,

A irrelevant and deeply disgusting attempt to emotionally link the illegal immigration issue to pro-life sentiment.

that unemployment is dangerously low at 5%,

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! Yeah, we can't have less than 5% of our able-bodied citizenry unemployed! Your scofflaw clientele might have to hire LEGAL WORKERS!!!

and that our immigration laws are in dire need of reform.

Sez you and your abuela. 80% of America's citizens disagree with you.

I don't personally know any firemen either, but I fully appreciate the need for them.

Yeah, all the firemen I know are working illegally, as "vigilante firemen." [/bitter sarcasm]

Why do you resent people who come here to do jobs you don't want to take? Someone has to do those jobs.

Someone legal. Not necessarily me. But someone in compliance with the laws my representatives passed. Why? Because I and my fellow citizens are masters in our own home. That's why.

Dang, beaten to the punch yet again!


(Insert OBL'er-type comment of "Huh from the sound of it that punch is probably kool-aid JMO.)
