I’m as religious as the next guy. How about discussing the immigration issue under “my terms” as I think it is more humanitarian. In short, let’s not disrespect those obeying the law and arrest those who do violate the law. There, done, very humanitarian.

[AmericanInTokyo]

BARF ALERT.

These people are traitors.

What about the thousands of victims killed by illegals since 9/11/01? On our OWN SOIL?

OF COURSE, not a PEEP out of these people about those deaths. We need divvvvvvvversity and compaaaaasion. Sick of it!

[LachlanMinnesota]

By desctructive attitude, they mean any opinion which differs from their own...

George Orwell Support Local number 1345 (”couched in Christian love and understanding”).

Let us start with having the illegals respect us, by respecting our laws, and by not requiring us to pay aid to them when I have never voted to authorize that aid, thus requiring me to pay higher taxes for schools, medical costs, public services, and many other areas.

I am out of cheeks to turn...

[dforest]

Tell these people to “bite me”.

[abigailsmybaby]

Swell. I suppose the next thing they’ll demand is amnesty because it’s the Christian thing to do.

New Tone.

Lets give them new tone by stapling whizz whistles to each of their rectal sphincters, thats the new tone they need!

"During that conversation, representatives of the Obama campaign pledged to stop using the term “illegal aliens” and to examine their literature and remove offensive language."

The lefties are going to destroy this country!

[TexasCajun]

I would say every Freeper here supports LEGAL immigrants.

Just NOT the ILLEGAL ones.

[notdownwidems]

The petition states, “We pledge ourselves as people of faith and goodwill to stand with our immigrant neighbors who have come to the United States from throughout the world. Recognizing the moral imperative to welcome the stranger in our midst, we commit ourselves to support laws that affirm their dignity, preserve their families, and acknowledge the value of their presence among us" Gee what about all that separation of church and state biz? I guess that doesn't really count if the left is doing it?

[vladog]

Quote: Iowa—Members of the Iowa Interfaith Immigration Coalition are urging presidential candidates of both parties to conduct the debate over immigration policy in a civil manner “that respects human dignity.”

How about respecting the laws of the US instead and take their illegal bodies and go the hell home where they belong!

[HighlyOpinionated]

These are the same people who don't understand that it's about Heritage, not about hate, when Southerners fly the Stars and Bars.

It's about ILLEGAL, UNLAWFUL immigration, it's not about immigration.

Picture a Mexican Flag, flown upside down, with a "no" (circle with off-set line/diameter) on it and the Spanish word for "illegal/unlawful" written under the circle/no.

[longtermmemmory]

translation: they still want amnesty.

[AuntB]

” In a Dec. 4 news conference, Connie Ryan Terrell, executive director of The Interfaith Alliance of Iowa, led a group of speakers who gathered to “change the negative, public attitudes and rhetoric which demonize and dehumanize our immigrant friends and neighbors.”

Ms. Terrell said this “destructive attitude has permeated our nation,”

Ugh, she sounds like Huckabee.

[LibLieSlayer]

The UNITED STATES belongs to “We the People”. The UNITED STATES has well defined borders and laws controlling those borders. Those borders belong to “We the People” and we want them sealed by humans, technology and a secure fence perimeter. Jesus educated us on these things when he said, “Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto GOD the things that are GOD’S”. He does not compel us to commit National Suicide to help those less fortunate. We are on the verge of giving Mexico many more BILLIONS of Dollars to help their people... we have already given many, many BILLIONS of Dollars to them as charity. We are not bound by scripture as a Nation to allow our own destruction.

IOW “shaddap and learn Spanish you f*&%ing racists!”

is what they mean.

[William Terrell]

Get'em the hell out of the country ought to be good tone.

[Lloyd227]

uh... how about... no

and I just remembered why I decided not to become a panzy @ssed global humanist Methodist...

[Brilliant]

Of course they want a new tone. They are losing the debate.
