Analysts agreed, saying the attacks had turned immigration into a national security issue for the United States.

No kidding!!

[Brownie74]

Ping!!

[Brownie74]

Ping!!

Holy cow!

• Stock market tumbling
• WTC being taken out by foreigners
• 5000+ Americans being killed. 
• (How many of our illegal alien Mexicans could fill in for them? Trading bonds etc. LOL)
• Economy headed to the crapper.

Bad news with the only silver lining being this amnesty/ normalization garbage is ON HOLD!!!!! For the foreseeable future

Some analysts recalled 1942, when World War II created a significant need for laborers to keep the country producing food.

Instead of using them for laborers to produce food, why don't we register them for the draft, put them in uniform and send them to Afghanistan? You would see a mass exodus headed south to the border.

If they are willing to serve, really serve, for 5 years then they can apply for citizenship. 

Sh*t! Maybe we can get el grand Coca Cola salesman Vicente Fox to command an all illegal Mexican battalion for us.

It is still very prudent to be vigilant on this issue. Our attention on the mideast could just be what enables the benefactors of open borders to sneak something in the back door while our focus is elsewhere.

"Migration talks are, for the time being, defunct," Mr. Camarota said. "They're off the table for now."

Yea, but what about the un-inspected Mexican trucks rolling freely across the border?

I will have to say, I've seen alot of American patriotism on the Mexican channels lately, including (American) flag waving and singing the national anthem....More displays of American patriotism on their channels than ours in fact....They even showed Mexicans enlisting at the recruiters offices.

Very good point.

Bush essentially said we had no more important relationship with any country than with Mexico while Fox was here. Well, where are the Mexicans now? The British and Australians (and Canadians and New Zealanders?) stood up and immediately and unequivocally offered their support, including military support. I guess culture, language, history, and yes, blood does count for something after all, even if the clueless open-borders globalist corpocrats think that all that matters is economics.

[Brownie74]

Yea, but what about the un-inspected Mexican trucks rolling freely across the border?

As far as I know, Mexican trucks are still limited to operating within a 20 mile zone north of the border.

As far as Mexicans enlisting---that is the law. The law (Selective Service) states that all aliens, including illegal aliens</font color=red>, must register for the draft.

[Brownie74]

Don't expect any help from Mexico. They only know two words---WE WANT!!

They don't know the meaning of the words---WE GIVE!!

[B4Ranch]

This has been the one benefit from the WTC fires.

[FreePaul]

Does this mean that there will be no more illegal immigration from Mexico? Ha Ha.

[Brownie74]

No, they will keep coming and they will keep taking!!

[lodwick]

You got it!! Bump!

I just heard on the radio that Boeing may have to lay off as many as 30,000 workers. Reports coming in from DFW airport say that it is not nearly as busy as in the past. The same with Dallas Love Field.

Government figures say that there are 18,000,000 illegal aliens in America, 3,000,000 of them being Mexican. Who are the other 15,000,000? Where are they? What are they up to? Why did our government allow this to happen? They (the government) is simply not doing it's job.

I agree with Marine Inspector. There is no control or exit policy. Five minutes after these people enter our country, they scatter like quail and we loose track of them. It doesn't make sense to me.

[Marine Inspector]

Free green cards for anyone who spends 4 years in the military, fighting the war on terrorism.

Sounds good to me.

That is exactly how a lot of legislation gets through.  They get you focused on one issue while they quietly pass legislation on another.  They have the advantage on us.  There is so many issues we need to track it is difficult to keep abreast of all of them.  They control the agenda, not us.

If this disaster causes the federal government to rethink immigration and to control our borders it will be the only bright spot I see in this whole mess.  Hopefully that will be the case, but I'm not too optimistic about it considering the track record of our so called leaders.

The failure of the federal government to control our borders is in large part what made this attack possible.  This attack did not come from outside this country but from within.  It shouldn't have been that easy for the terrorists.  The terrorists lived here, trained here and made the attack from here.
