IN what way does the analogy to totalitarian methods NOT reflect the yells of certain fringe elements who are calling for all illegals to be rounded up...how is that different from the actions of Nazis and Commies?

Uh, the Commies rounded up the law-abiding, whereas we wish to round up those engaged in illegal activity?

That deserves a

DUH...

The methods are the same...and Communists and nazis rounded up people outside their nations too...You define the group and then apply the methods to achieve the goals. Most illegals living here are not committing crimes either.

It cannot be done in the way the screamers like you want it...it would lead to violence, condemnation, and retribution. Sending back millions of illegally residing people is insane and you know it. There are other more reasonable ways to deal with the influx. Part of our tradition is allowing immigrants to come here. Criminals? Deport them. But law abiding hard working?

Dubya is right again. Temporary workers is the way to go.
