(NOTE: Houston and other Texas cities are bracing for the impact hundreds of thousands of people who need housing. Texas has a minimum of 1.4 million illegal aliens. That is undoubtedly way, way too low an estimate. At least double that would not surprise me. Americans need the housing occupied by illegal aliens. Vicente Fox, we don't need your money. The best thing you can do to help IS TO TELL YOUR PEOPLE LIVING IN TEXAS ILLEGALLY TO COME HOME.)
==================================================
FROM THE STORY, here is a breakdown ---
Native Countries and Regions of Illegal Immigrants
81 percent come from Mexico and other parts of Latin America as of March 2004:
- Mexico 57 percent, or 5.9 million
- Other Latin American nations 24 percent, or 2.5 million
- Asia 9 percent, or 1 million
- Europe and Canada 6 percent, or 600,000
- Africa and other 4 percent, or 400,000
According to the Pew report, Mexicans overall represent about 32 percent of the foreign-born population, a high figure by historical standards but not unprecedented; both Irish and German immigrants accounted for a higher percentage of the foreign-born at various points in the mid- and late-19th century.
The number of Mexican immigrants has increased an average of 8 percent each year over three decades. Their number increased from 760,000 in 1970 to more than 11 million in 2004. The Pew report says about 80 percent to 85 percent of that increase is because of illegal immigration.
Where Illegal Immigrants Live
68 percent live in just eight states:
- California 24 percent, or 2.4 million
- Texas 14 percent, or 1.4 million
- Florida 9 percent, or 850,000
- New York 7 percent, or 650,000
- Arizona 5 percent, or 500,000
- Illinois 4 percent, or 400,000
- New Jersey 4 percent, or 350,000
- North Carolina 3 percent, or 300,000
- All other states 32 percent, or 3.2 million
(BS numbers. Los Angeles county alone has more than 2.4 million)

I was wondering how long it would take for the immigration crowd to link illegal aliens to Katrina.
======================================================
I guess it took until today. Among the other things I do, I'm a commercial real estate broker. Housing will be needed for a huge influx of Katrina victims. A great deal of housing would be available for these people if the housing was not occupied by people who shouldn't be in the country. Cut me some slack. I don't write about the illegal immigration problem often enough.

When all those buses are finished bringing out the New Orleans refugees, they should be used to deport the criminal invaders.

Los Angeles alone has so many illegals, they live in garages (illegal garage conversions), and pack themselves into the houses, apartments so thickly.

WE suddenly have lots of citizens that will need jobs, even low paying jobs until we get this situation resolved. Wonder where those jobs will come from?"BINGO! Some of the job seekers may help take care of our illegal problem.

As so many callers to talk shows have pointed out, Mexico has merely provided the most much needed assistance in our hour of need. They even have a few tens of millions of volunteers pre-positioned. That's how much the corrupt, criminal ruling class of Mexicorruption cares about us.
Ya see, mainline Republicans and mentally ill liberals knew what they were doing. Who'd a thunk it. Nueva Orleans will be up and running in no time.
A new spin for the White House? You don't like "guest workers" and amnesty then how about if the White House welcomes the Mexican volunteers?
