What right does Congress have, or for that matter the Executive Branch, to override our immigration laws? You know very well that the proposed "reform" of immigration law specifically FAVORS illegal Latino immigrants. So, the differentiation as to nationality starts with the politicians.

Your move...

You mean, aside from the Constitution? (E.g., Article 1, Section 8.) Congress made the immigration laws in the first place -- do you suggest that Congress has no power to change them?

You know very well that the proposed "reform" of immigration law specifically FAVORS illegal Latino immigrants.

It's not a matter of "favor," so much as recognizing that the vast majority of the illegal immigrants come from our neighbor to the south, and therefore just happen be Latino.

So, the differentiation as to nationality starts with the politicians.

There's certainly a racial aspect to the debate -- and you seem to be on the other side of it.
