Frankly, I've seen that here on FR. Folks make snide comments about anything having to do with folks with Latin American sounding names, deriding them as probably being illegal immigrants, without ANY evidence to support that contention.
MOST people in the US came from immigrant stock, and there will continue to be immigration to the US, legal and otherwise.
Oh, yes, that is precisely what he is talking about. He's still whining and fuming because about 70% of the American people opposed his amnesty for all illegals nonsense. Remember his snide and smart-assed: "See you at the bill signing" after an initial defeat of his amnesty during the summer of 2007?
That defeat is the only reason he keeps whining and bringing this issue up. He's said that he regrets he couldn't get his amnesty done, though he was by no means honest enough to call it the amnesty that it was.
Of course most came from immigrants, but not illegals.
By your logic,,, please explain who on earth cannot claim American citizenship? It sounds like you think anyone who simply *gets here* is entitled?
Why is it so impossible to discuss illegal immigration without it being a discussion of immigration as a right?
Also,, when do we get to discuss lifting the draconian immigration limits placed on mostly white european nations? It seems like you have to be brown or from a third world hell-hole before the door swings open. How many Somalis have we taken in,,, as opposed to say, Poles, Brits, Ukranians,,etc??
Why are whites largely not allowed to become US citizens anymore?
I don't agree with that. I think Bush is confusing the two issues. He thinks that to be anti "illegal" immigrants is to be anti immigrants. He's wrong. My grandparents and one of my parents were immigrants - legal immigrants. So I don't think anybody is against immigrants. Just illegal ones. Bush can't make that distinction. And of course, there are other idiots, like Bush, who can't make that distinction. Maybe that's who he's talking about. The dummies who think that if you're against illegal immigrants, you must be against all immigrants.
