It is really, really time for immigration reform. Honestly, the election of Sarkozy could be a very good thing for the US.
Citizenship is given far too freely in this country, and so, predictably, is esteemed far too lightly. I think it's one of the Founding Fathers' biggest oversights, that the Constitution contains no provision for the forfeiture of citizenship.
reverse jihad is the only solution
iranian exploding buses and collapsing mosques are the only wake-up calls that communicate we're serious
Look...these people are so insane that these mothers could theoretically come here, about to give birth, in order to give birth here making their children automatic U.S. citizens. We need to amend the Constitution so that just being born here in the U.S. does not make you a citizen. You should have to be born here to parents who are citizens. This would also stop the pregnant mothers illegally crossing the border just to give birth, so their children can bring them over. Time to act. This war is against people who have the patience to wait the 20 years until these kids are old enough to blow themselves up. Couple that with the Left's (and ACLU's) insistence that we outlaw racial profiling....in my eyes we are asking to be attacked again.
It's a bit late for immigration reform. The damage has been done and the bad guys are already here.
"We need to amend the Constitution so that just being born here in the U.S. does not make you a citizen."
I agree with you on this, and so would many others. But don't hold your breath waiting for it to happen.
That map of the Islamic Terrorist Network in America is not a mirror image of the Blue State Red State pattern but it's awfully darn close!!
People who hate the U.S., from different angles, for different reasons.
Bears fans, no doubt...
Hear hear.
....and repeal the Immigration Act of 1965.
You suck
Damn. Was hoping that one of them was a Daley.
Looks to me like there are way more in the Red States
I know that there is a fat chance of it passing, but, I would love to see Congress on the record about an issue like this. Who (besides the usual suspects) could be against it? It's not racist.....it is simply a method of survival. Why should you be able to be here on vacation, have a child, and that child has automatic dual citizenship? Anyone here illegally should have no rights whatsoever, much less the right to perpetuate themselves in this country just by having children. It's not a fence, it is applied across the board, so the issue of race would be a non-issue. America needs to start standing up for its own rights and sovereignty.
Barack HUSSEIN Obama?
Note the 'violent' part. I think they're buying into Islamist claims that Jihad CAN be peaceful, an inner struggle, which is pure nonsense.
