It may well already be here....yesterday, I think it was Rush who said he just had numbers in from one county in Texas and that hundreds of illegals have been registering to vote and in the last election 40 some illegals actually had voted...as Rush says, that’s just in one county, and that number of votes can easily skewer the votes of legal citizens and affect the outcome of an election.

If you are familiar with this phone in site, you will find out if someone uses a stolen SSN their names will not match the number givened. If businesses claim such a system is a burden to run once, how do they cope with doing the same thing with credit cards which they do hundreds of times in a week? The problem is motivation, checking an illegal once is a burden because it deprives you of cheap labor, running a similar process for credit cards is not a burden because you want the credit fast for a sale. Let’s try another excuse because the one you gave is a lame one. I can see why in history the merchant class in many societies are ranked just above entertainers and slaves.

I cannot deny the logic in your post.

At least I can say that I was one of the few Freepers who refused to support him in the primaries in 1999-2000.

I gave up on him a while ago.

For me it was the trifecta immediately after 911 when he did nothing about the border, went to a mosque to praise Islam as a "religion of peace," while the smoke was still billowing from the New York rubble, then started talking about Iraq and the "Iraqi people" constantly.

I don't care at all for his deceptive newspeak about the borders and our sovereignty, "work Americans won't do," I'm against amnesty," his contemptible line about "vigilantes," referring to American citizens, etc.

To me, it's difficult to listen to this, know what he is up to and trust him on anything else.

I would add two more to Boortz's list

1. Put a heavy tax, 50%, on all monies sent out of the country which will be returned when - IF - the person does his tax return. So that if they are't legal and don't file a tax return, meaning they aren't paying taxes, then we have half of $20 billion to work on immigration and build that wall. 2. Just because a woman comes here and craps a baby out, does not mean the baby is a citizen. Do away with that - make it more clear just what it actually means.

I guess it wouldn’t do well to put out a warning that 60 taliban may be trailing you? :(

That looks like a scary situation at the border. I’ll ping you if I see other articles today.
