All threads lead to illegal immigration, just like all threads led to Terry Schiavo, and Elian Gonzalez before that . . . .

[Don Corleone]

“Women and Children greatly affected.” Oooops sorry...wrong story.

[Stayfree]

And I’ll bet that they all just arrived from our southern border!!!

[pleikumud]

And the DemoSocialists want to undo all this economic progress by increasing taxes and increasing government interference with free-market capitalism. The Congressional Democrats are socialists and traitors - all of them.

[iopscusa]

As if this 1348 Sh_t bill will make any difference in the Illegal Alien invasion, get real....I have a sinking feeling that we are better off with the status quo, when not if we have another terror attack in the near future that will change the equation on the Illegal problem!

[Recovering_Democrat]

IBBF!

[Earthdweller]

It's ridiculous that the people in this country can't come up with a solution for the sake of our national security.

They think Homeland Security can just put up a fence and it won't be torn down...not by the Mexicans but by our own people!

Well, I'm done with the immigration threads friend. Going out to stock up on more amo, put a wall up around my house and invest in some security cameras. See ya.

[WVNan]

Right. This is an “activist” site and we are focused on the most burning issue of the day......most of the time.

Hoover Alert

I wonder why liberals keep balming Hoover for the great depression when FDR's big government policies were just as bad and even more disastrous than Hoover's.

FDR's economic policies LENGTHENED the Great Depression for another 7 years.

"Quick hide this great news, the Bush Bashers on FR are coming to destroy you and they are going to turn this good news into illegal immigration thread and attack the President."

Close the borders! Build the Wall!! Those damned illegals are stealing all of our jobs!!!

How's that? :-)

"How come every illegal alien can come here and find a job when a welfare queen cannot?"

You're assuming welfare queens WANT to work...

[Red Badger]

You're assuming welfare queens WANT to work...

Silly me......assuming all people would actually want to be individuals........

President Bush could announce he’s sending troops into Mexico and these Buchannonite assimilation trolls will complain - even though they’re the ones always calling for Bush to invade.

They conveniently never b*tched about illegals while Clinton was in office and it was just as bad then, no matter WHAT they say.

Unfortuntely but not surprising Yahoo has this story titled

• U.S. employers continue to hire amid sluggish economy

on their home page

[Uncle Chip]

157,000 jobs added in May

Yeh but how many of those are jobs that Americans wouldn't do???

[1rudeboy]

Not sure what you mean by "focused." If you are suggesting that turning a discussion of the latest (un)employment report into a discussion of illegal immigration is an example of "focused," then what does "unfocused" mean?

[cake_crumb]

"Silly me......assuming all people would actually want to be individuals........"

You have perhaps have not had as much opportunity to view the dark side of humanity as I have.

[cake_crumb]

"U.S. employers continue to hire amid sluggish economy"

Figures.

If thise were still the downhill slide years of the Clinton administration, we're be hearing the media trumpeting the good news 24/7.

[Red Badger]

Oh, yes I have............I was born in Poverty, I was raised in Poverty. I did not like Poverty. So, I left Poverty..........
