Lopez said in Spanish, "my English is not very good."

But she's an informed voter, right?

HOPEFULLY things will change dramatically and soon.

As you know, I live in a farming community. I have deep respect and even affection for families of the farm workers. But we cannot have ILLEGAL immigrants in the United States. They must be here LEGALLY. With workers permits.

Only then, can things be RIGHT for THEM and for US. We can make sure they are taken care of properly, better migrant workers housing, living conditions, pay, medical care. But with SECURITY for the US intact!! Right now it is just plain crazy!!

After reading this, look at all the possible VOTING violiations!!!

This will be corrected I'M SURE!! Or.. I should say.. I PRAY!!! With the SLEAZE DEM tactics working.. who knows. I won't hold my breath.. until this one is OVER!!

"There's a feeling of not knowing how to do it because they come from a different country," Koenig said.

The voting booth is the easy part. Understanding US politics takes a lifetime. There is no way on earth they are informed enough if they have trouble with the voting booth, itself.

Not only is it a security risk, we also have the problem of the Flood of Ignorance. They do not understand US politics. Most illegals are cynical about politics in general. We don't need more ignorance and cynicism in the voting booths, we need less.

O'Reilly had Tom Tancredo and J.D. Haywood on last night talking about the Arizona's illegal-immigrant situation. The rat governor there wants illegals to have to right to drive. O'Reilly came right out and said it was because it would make it easier for them to vote and they would vote democratic. The Republican Party needs to wake up to this or they'll never win another big election.
