Other Reagan mistakes were Sandra Day O’Connor, Anthony Kennedy, George Herbert Walker Bush, and King Day, which fed into white guilt.

The republicans are on a political suicide mission.

Most of us do see that. Frankly, they are in bed with Schumer’s bill.

They are helping Obama’s party. Warning. Danger. Sober. Up.

Let’s also note, for the sake of the bigots here on FR, that there are millions of illegals from countries besides Mexico, including Ireland, China, Russia, etc.

Bigots? You got to be f***ing kidding me. You're really going to use the language and name calling of the Left to try to shame conservatives here into accepting their own demise? How about you go screw yourself.

Calm down. Tuck your chest hairs back in.

Read the rest of the posts.

Then you can return and converse with the adults.

They want the cheap labor.

And they want a NAU.

I’m so disgusted I don’t even care to watch anymore.

These folks are going to do what they want. There’s nothing we can do about it.

I’d call my Congressman, but he wants this. I’d call my Senators, but they’re only sorry this didn’t happen sooner.

I’m relegated to third to fifth status in my own nation.

Screw em...

Bigots? If so, point them out. Many that you consider bigots are surely not. Yes there are many illegals other than those from Mexico; they all need to be deported.

Illegals from Mexico are usually the topic for several reasons that have nothing to do with bigotry:

There are far more illegals from Mexico than any other country.

Illegals from Mexico have several groups that are advocating for them, most other groups do not.

Though it is said they “hide in the shadows” they are far more high profile than other illegal groups.

For some reason many in this country have greater sympathy for those from Mexico than those from other countries, and are willing to give them special treatment in many ways which causes resentment from people like me that think they are not above the law just because they come from Mexico.

I must have not communicated my point...or people aren’t being taught reading comprehension skills any more.

I never defend illegal immigration from anywhere.

My point is that Mexicans aren’t the only ones living off welfare and assuming they belong here.

Go to Boston and check out the illegal Irish community there. It’s immense and the girls are very cute.

Go to New York and check out the Russians. When I was living in Seattle back in the 80’s, the Chinese illegals (and the crime that accompanies them) were a problem back then.

Only a provincial view obsesses on Mexicans. They’re numerous, yes, but they’re not alone.

I think some people need to turn off the tv and invest some resources in travel. It broadens the perspective.

I read the rest of the posts, smart guy. You've got no business saying things like that here. Let me enlighten you on something - you and plenty of others cry about "bigotry" when you hear or see people making disparaging remarks about Mexicans. Well, guess what - it is a natural reaction for people to become angry and frustrated when they see their country invaded and altered for the worse by hordes of law-breaking invaders from another country/culture. Any disparaging remarks are the result of that frustration and anger.

Given that the number of illegal Mexicans in this country DWARFS the number of illegals from anywhere else, it is perfectly reasonable for people to focus on them. Plus, the ridiculous level of tolerance we have for Mexicans flouting the system results in tolerance for all illegals in general. Our corrupt government is not going to crack down on Irish illegals while allowing 20-30 million Mexicans to live here, because it would be quite obvious to the lowest idiot that racial/cultural prejudice was going on. So they have a greater tolerance for all illegals.

It is an Orwellian tactic to take away any language that one could use to show resistance or contempt for something that is attacking you. That is why the cries of "racism" are both diabolical and effective whenever someone criticizes Obama or his policies. If one can no longer use language to show contempt for a thing, than one is handicapped when trying to resist that thing. One is not allowed the language to express the thought, and therefore has difficulty having the thought in the first place, and certainly cannot communicate that thought to others. Crimethink is not allowed.

More news for you: I'm sure you are very proud of yourself for having married a Hispanic woman, and it makes you feel warm and fuzzy to know that you're not one of those evil, hateful, bigots who are pissed off. Well, I know lots and lots of Mexicans, both green card holders and illegals, and I can inform you that a good portion of them, if not a majority, have no intention of ever being American, whether they stay here or not. And, in fact, many of them have nothing but contempt for the gringos, and speak of the gringos in less flattering terms than you'll ever see here on FR with regards to Mexicans. Why don't you go explain to them how bigotry is so wrong?

By the way, I'm part Mexican, myself. So take your cries of "bigotry" and stick them where the sun don't shine.

I take it that job behind the cash register is unfulfilling?

What arrogance. I live about 6 miles from the Mexican border, I deal with the results of illegal immigration and other criminal activities on this border every single day and have for over 30 years. I guess my personal experiences have made me pretty obsessed but I will not apologize for that.

I am aware of many illegals from many other countries that are also an issue- I think they all need to be deported. I don’t have to turn off my TV and travel to broaden my perspective on illegal immigration, I have a front row seat.

ITG’s like yourself are hilarious, but I’ve got end the taunting and go.

Lunchtime! Japanese! Bento!

Work on those communication skills and women will want to have something to do with you.

Their children will not even know how to rebuild or what went wrong.

I think of the movie "Idiocracy," with the old skyscrapers held together with rope because the people are too stupid to fix them or build more. That is just what we're heading for.

...if they get away with this, we'll be a nation of 50 states that are all as irresponsible and stupid as California

Only if these evil bastards can hold together the Union by force of arms. Otherwise, I see about 8 separate new countries (one of which will rejoin Mexico), including the one which contains Moscow, er, I mean, Washington DC.

I admire people like your wife who chose to become a citizen by following the law. I cannot imagine how amnesty will be explained to those who came here legally, or those in the process right now.

God forgave me for dancing in the street when ted kennedy died.

First thing I thought of, as with lautenberg's passing: "Ding dong, the witch is dead."

I offered to pour a pint of whiskey on Ted's grave - "if I could filter it through me kidneys first" (Pat the Irishman), but got no answer.

ITG? Really I am an internet tough guy? That is pretty funny along with your idea that I need to work on my communication skills to attract women. No thanks, I am straight.

You are an arrogant ass that doesn’t even bother to read posts, just jump right in and label us bigots if we discuss illegals from Mexico. How very liberal of you. It didn’t seem to occur to you that many of us live on the Mexican border so that is our interest, nothing to do with racism.

2014 the GOP will lose the house if they pass this bill because the base will be fractured, depressed and pissed off ...especially when the first numbers come in and say 25 million have signed up for amnesty .....it’s the end...no recovery for the country ever ....

New immigrant citizens vote 80% for the Democrat Party.

What else needs to be said?
