That's right. The invasion is still underway. Even while the world was pressuring Israel to cave in to Hezbollah. Even while were watching this strange little man confess to a murder he probably did not commit .. the invasion continues.
Here's an interesting website for you. It's called immigrationCounters.com The #1 Site for Real-Time Immigration Statistics. I can't vouch for the accuracy of the information on this site .. but it sure does get your attention. Here are the stats as of about 6:00 this morning:
Illegal Immigrants in Country 20,426,887
Money wired to Mexico $23,575,296,302
Cost of Social Services for Illegal Immigrants $397,469,111,828
Illegals Enrolled in Government Schools K-12 3,749,373
Cost of Illegal Immigrants Enrolled in K-12 $14,489,987,299
Illegal Immigrants Incarcerated 315,460
Cost for Incarcerations of Illegal Immigrants $1,446,245,595
Illegal Immigrant Fugitives 623,761
Here's a statistic from elsewhere, one that I did check out. Out of all of the outstanding warrants for murder in Los Angeles, 95% of them are for illegal aliens.
One more thing: You do remember that immigration fuss in the Congress some weeks back, don't you? The House had one version that called for the borders to be controlled and contained no guest worker program, the Senate had a bill calling for amnesty and only a token attempt to control the borders. Nothing got done. The Senate bill was written by Harry Reid and Ted Kennedy. It contained a provision for about 370 miles of fencing along the Mexican-U.S. Border. But .. here's what you probably didn't know. That fence can only be built with after consulting Mexico as to its location. Well isn't that special! Mexico gets to decide where we put our border fences!
Thank you for posting. Disturbing, isn't it?
Where I get off the Republican Bus.
The ONLY candidates that get my vote ( and my MONEY) in November will be for
NO AMNESTY
A REAL BORDER BARRIER
SANCTIONS ON EMPLOYERS
Thanks for posting the numbers, interesting, in some cases disgusting.
With all the talk about securing this nation to leave the borders wide open is outrageous!
To allow criminal activity to continue (illegals being hired to work) and taxpayers still funding welfare benefits for non citizens is pathetic!
You undercut your entire argument by framing it in terms of ethnicity. Are Hispanics the problem or illegal immigrants? I think there's a huge difference.
That's right, Alter.
We wouldn't want guys like this moving here.

And a "new world order" and Islam is a "religion of peace". END SARCASM!
I thought Hastert was fixing this in commitee... /sarc
Muzzle flashes?
ILLEGAL HISPANICS!!
No one could argue about the contributions made by the numerous ethic groups that are comprised of legal citizens
My grandparents came from Italy and become citizens, legally
BTW more soldiers of Italian hertiage died in WW2 than any other ethic group
can't count that high, but judging by Boortz's figures, I'd say it's more like a billion point$ of light.
20,426,887? Is he sure? I thought it was 20,426,889. Oh well, nevermind.
In truth, I don't think anyone knows. I've been thinking it was probably around 22.5 million. I wouldn't be surprised to find that it was actually higher. I know some folks will find that statement bazaar, but the flood gates have been open for six years and the problems being reported around the nation reflect a massive number of illegal aliens in country.
When I think of the rights and opportunities our forefathers and military have fought for to develop and sustain for us, it makes me proud that we share it with new immigrants. It also makes me furious, to realize how many illegals have stolen it, and how many of my fellow citizens couldn't care less.
To the degree that we are willing to allow others to steal quazi access to the rights of citizenship, the value of our citizenship is deminished.
But the title of this thread is "The numbers on the Hispanic invasion"
We don't want any illegals here. Not the Poles in Chicago. Not the Irish in Boston.
Lots of Spanish speaking people immigrate here with proper visas, work permits, etc. Maybe you could consider these legal immigrants to be an "invasion".
Our great country, I fear, is circling the drain.
"Muzzle flashes?" ---How bout "Muzzie Flashes" as they blow themselves up in a 'work accident'?????
Lesson #4 in Principles of Success is UNDERSTANDING PEOPLE. So we here in Mexico DO need to understand, and I think your issues are valid. Let me give a Mexican Perspective. Here in Mexico much of our politics have shifted to include more North American values. Many times I have talked with civic leaders in Mexico who had positive experiences in NYC the USA and wanted to be town mayor and have a more pluralistic approach to solving ideas in Mexico. Some Mexican workers who went to Ft. Worth came back to town to show the rest of the population the benefits of Drywall, sheetrock. Last week I went to the local Walmart in MEXICO and purchased a washing machine WHIRLPOOL was what my local MExican applicance repairman said I needed, MADE IN THE USA. Here in MExico we too complain that shoes are being made in CHINA, while 80% of the footwear people have on is Asiatic. More people here in these parts want to learn English, and to stop this FLOW of immigrants to the USA, we do need to get economies of the rest of the world set up based on ethics, integrity, character issues and end corruption.
