As the immigration debate rages and becomes increasingly polarized, I can not help but wonder if liberals parent their children with the same consequence-free approach they would like our society to take in confronting illegal immigration.

“If junior gets behind the wheel drunk one Friday night, do they simply think hey….he just really wanted to go to that party and he didn’t hurt anyone that time…no big deal?”

Not any parents I know well, liberal OR conservative, although it’s usually the richer parents with more influence who try to get Junior out of trouble for driving drunk.

Asked a liberal friend of mine about your comment. Here was his response. P.S.: I DID NOT SAY THIS. I’M JUST QUOTING.: “The question of Amnesty for illegals is more a matter of practicality. They’re here. They work. Many pay their taxes. Wouldn’t it be better to say, “oops. We fowled up in letting you get away with this for so long and now we’re going to start over?
Comparing the issue to child care I would say that the conservative approach would be tantamount to watching your kid steal candy from the stor every day and pretending not to notice and then once the store decides it doesn’t like the kid doing it spanking him and sending him to bed without his dinner.”

SOMEBODY ( and it is NOT ONLY "Liberal Parents!) are allowing their children to MARCH & PROTEST along side those favoring Open Boarders-and Letting the Illegals Stay!

"SOMEBODY"-and it's NOT Only the Liberals-are NOT asking questions-finding out what their High School/professors are saying about ILLEGALS :TEACHING Their children while they are in SCHOOL that, " It's Okay!! They are only here for Jobs.."

"Somebody"-Your Neighbor-Children's SCHOOL-YOUR Local BANK!- the Businesses YOU and THEM go to - knowing HAVE BEEN Using Illegals to work for them for years too!

BLAME YOUR DOCTORS, DENTISTS along with their LAWYERS-who do NOT "Question" their Financial Advisors who are the ones KNOWINGLY Giving the "Start-Up Monies" for the Businesses that Mainly Use ILLEGALS!!

I walked into my bank's Manager and said-"I am PULLING MY ACCOUNTS from your bank BECAUSE I had written your BANK'S MANAGER to tell them they are using a COMPANY that Knowing HIRES ILLEGALS to do their lawn work on their bank's Property..and they wrote me back saying (in other words) -SORRY to see you go-at least you got a Free Toaster while you were with us-We will MISS your Business....NOT!"

As with ALL Issues -Illegals, Drugs, Crime- "WE" are our own worst enemies. Unless you are like most Conservatives that DO Write Letters! and DO go to Rallies & Marches!

I am curious now to see HOW MANY out there show up in DC this Sept 15th now!
