The big story of yesterdays protest rally’s across the country over immigration reform was not the numbers of protesters or immigration reform controversies, but the protesters own remarks over what they believed they were fighting for.

What a bunch of crap...

The real story is the complete and total failure that Bush Senior, Clinton and Bush Junior have been in regards to the protecting the borders of this nation.

COMPLETE FAILURE by both parties and the Federal government.

And now your going to be sold down the river...and these felon parasites are 'assimilated'.

GW Bush is a failure. So are his predecessors. So is our government.

Maybe some folks around here will start waking up to what the hell is happening to this country...

"It's about time we exercised some of our civil rights," said John Chavez.

Then go home and exercise them.

This is one argument I remember having (along with a friend of mine) with some fluff headed college girl some years ago. Some seem to think that our rights automatically encircle the world and that anyone who steps foot over here automatically qualifies for those same rights, as well as citizenship. The underlying argument almost always comes down to, "oh the poor people, they need our help". These people have countries that are responsible for them.

"They want to make a law that would make it illegal for me to talk to my wife."

This statement, beyond its patent absurdity, should be the cue for responsible media to ridicule the whole thing. Of course they won't.

And hey, if his wife's homely enough, maybe such a law is just the get-out clause he needs. But I digress.

The message, of course, is as muddled as it is misguided. They want rights (read: handouts) from the government of the United States? Then why brandish Mexican flags? Do you see Koreans, Syrians, South Africans or Senegalese waving the flags of their home countries while barking about what George Will calls "freshly-minted rights" once they have emigrated legally to the US? Isn't it the legal part that they are really protesting? And when will the next protest in favor of bank robbers and car thieves be, as long as we're promoting lawbreaking?
