Most all people who came here were very grateful & proud to be new citizens. Now they are contemptuous & spit on our flag, form groups like La Raza, gangs, barrios. And who else besides Mexicans come over the border? Why, people from the ME with no good intentions, South & Central Americans, who could be from anywhere.
The decent Mexicans who come here are hard workers and they are being exploited by our government. If McCain thinks white people could pick lettuce even for his crazy $50 hr, he is full of it--Anglos cannot do this kind of work at least for very long, not these days.
This is not to say that immigrants many years ago were not exploited by big business interests. and we should not repeat that, either.
B.S. I suggest you take a look at how an awful lot of Anglos made their living on farms as recently as the 1970s. Ever seen a Maine potato farm? Poor white folk always have done a fine job of harvesting those spuds.
If being exploited means paying no income taxes, getting free health care, free education for my kids and being able to cry, 'Racism!' every time somebody looks sideways at me, and not having to learn the language or respect the law, then I'll take a slice of that pie, please.
Be Ever Vigilant!
But the southern invasion was unnecessary from the start and it was fueled by politicians. Long ago we had a good program--Braceros--out here but somewhere along the way it was abandoned.
I feel that way too! But my point is—when the Open Border crowd tries to defend this invasion, they use the worn-out argument that people just want to come here to work—it’s now only a small percentage because the handouts/gov’t support cancel any need to work. The exploitation of people who want to work is the real reason —cheap labor for the illegals who refuse handouts. And these people are taking Americans’ jobs. Not just farm labor—go by construction sites & observe. I’ve heard contractors call radio shows and say they have to hire cheap laborer(or skilled) because they would go broke. Nonsense. And this was a few years ago in the height of the building boom-real estate boom. There are so many thngs wrong with this invasion and it must not continue or we go the way of the Balkans.
Agree 100%. My house was built 12 years ago, mostly by Mexicans, and they did a fine job. But I was only half kidding when I told the builder that he should be passing on some of his cost savings to me.
LOL! How true. My granddaughter knows a Black-Mexican mix girl and the girl says she can't stand Blacks. I asked why and she said they are so loud mouthed.
Here is a question: Pres. Bush made quite a few trips to visit Mexico's Presidente, plus meetings at the Texas ranch. Mucho dinero was given freely, one figure I recall amounted to $50 ml. Where did it go? Who were the recipients, poor Mexicans? Improvements in living conditions, housing, urban projects, schools, medicine?
Why didn't Jorge instead try to work out a plan where Mexico could be helped to improve their country, other than a few factories whose employees had to live in improvised shelters of cardboard because they were paid unconcionable wages? Next time a GB apologist claims 'he kept us safe for 7 years' I will remind them of this ongoing invasion.
Didn't we learn in school about Woodrow Wilson's slogan in l916--'He kept us out of war'. And then what happened in 1917?
The list includes Newt Gingrich...and some conservatives still like this enemy.
Grover Norquist: Dangerous to our health & sovereignty. Islamic wife.
I used to like Jack Kemp, mainly because of a fine speech he gave at the Rep. convention in ‘80. Very patriotic, and supported RR who of course won. Now, well, just another malo hombre, si?
Look at the societies the current immigrants are coming from because when here in sufficient number, that is what America is going to look like. Like Mexico, any country in Africa. Haiti, etc. For a preview look at Detroit.
Hasta luego.

if we gave away less,taxes would be less and we could afford at least some differential in wages from the companies view and less taxes means more spending power from the workers view.
Dear Wiggen, Americas only chance for survival is to be able to produce new and innovative products that only we can manufacture. China and Taiwan can imitate anything we make. I also think that America should also stop giving foreign aid to any country that asks. We as a conutry have a right to say no, especially to countries that want to see our demise. Americia gives billions of dollars to countries that hate us.Can you imagine what would happen if America said no to all these countries?? We could save a fortune and use it to help Americans. America must find a way to build its manufacturing base. also America must pull back from this insane idea of socilalism, it does not work and the average American must be made to understand this....
i am not an isolationist mind you but rather a preservationist.
Dear Wiggens, i am not a isolationist either. but we must choose our fights and our money (overseas aid) give aways better. Lets take care of home first then help others, as the saying goes help your self so you can help others. I think the goal of the socialist left is to turn the U.S. into a european socialist country and just an other country in the list of U.N. countrys (after they have raped and sucked all the resuources from the U.S.)in other words, one world goverment...............
