This was a well written and reasoned commentary. If you can't grasp it, I understand.

It's a date! I'll bring a case of Grey Poupon and FRench Champagne.

Somebody is gonna have to help me figure out how to get it out of the trunk of my new Lamborghini Ferrari Tomaso stretch Mini-SUV van tho... I couldn't make up my mind which one to buy so I bought them all and had them all put together by ChopShops'R'Us.. Their motto, "You shop, We chop." They don't hire illegals there for some reason tho, so I can't speak to the quality of the work they do, but Hey.. them's the breaks. ;-)

I'm having the Swedish Female Sharpshooters squad flown over too so I hope you have a hugh Hot Tub at your new place, I hope? ;-)

My dear PRND21, the left and their fellow travelers love illegal immigrations. Check out the marxist sites that support the Palestinians and the illegal immigrant at the same sites. You should know about them already you're so deep in the defense of these folks.

As for that person's last comment, so what? I want a president that thinks of citizens lives first.

As for me being a basher of Bush, I'm also a defender of Bush. That's the way it works for those of us with a brain.

"This was a well written and reasoned commentary"

Its a rehash of "talking points" published at VDare.

I would agree that citizenship in a state and membership of a nation might be similar, but they are not the same.

If both the citizen and the member were pulling in the same direction, it could be quite similar. Still, until you are a citizen, there is a difference.

If you love the nation, kudos to you as a member. Hopefully you'll take the next step. When you do, and as long as you respect the nation and your fellow citizens, there is no difference IMO.

If you come to a nation and despise it's citizens, break that nation's laws, continue to break them every day and protest in the streets against that nation holding a foreign flag, you are not a member of that nation or on a par anywhere close to that of a citizen.

Oh Ben, get off it. You don't like it because it reveals the silly excuses for something that is not only against the laws of the United States, but exposes our citizens to all manner of downsides.

Thanks for the comment.

Pay no attention to the poster who obviously is in need of his or her meds.


Anyone who deviates from their moderate view of the world is a lib or Bush hater. ;)

Vanities tend to be the opposite. Shallow and utterly self absorbed.

I much prefer "vanities" to a barrage of smug, cheap shots ridiculing what someone wrote rather than engaging with it.

Thanks. When did it become evil to demand that U.S. law be adhered to? When I joined up we prided ourselves on the rule of law, high moral standards and compassion for our fellow man, which just happens to be U.S. Citizens.

I don't like what I see in Mexico, but it's the Mexican's duty to fix that. Not ours.

I appreciate it.

I can't decide which is more ridiculous. Bush saying we're a nation of immigrants, even though 85% of us were born right here, or that the consensus guest worker proposal is anything more then backdoor amnesty.

Bush, McCain, Spector and Graham have joined forces with the Senates liberal Democrats to form a coalition for passage of a liberal immigration policy. I don't see anything conservative about granting amnesty to millions of illegals, unless of course you're a Democrat. The Democrats will be the winners in all this. They will see huge gains in Hispanic voters. There is no upside to amnesty for the GOP. None. The GOP will come out the losers.

A big part of your "essay" is the negative economic of illegals.

But your thesis is contradicted by the Dallas Federal Reserve Bank who did the landmark study. CATO, Heritage, and other have done studies that contradict you.

Excuse me, but I will look to these groups as infinately more credible than you or VDare.
