He don't get it, and no matter how many times we show it to him, he still won't get it.

I think the best thing everyone on this thread should do is completely ignore him and Dane. That's my plan. You can't debate with a bozo.

True enough, but sometimes it is hard to resist the impulse; like slowing down to rubberneck a car crash. It's just fun to watch someone make a fool out of himself repeatedly, and still not get it.

Watching Danevogado try to logically reason his way through an argument is like watching a very large, very slow moving train wreck.

Just before Clinton left office, he tried to push through some sort of amnesty. The Republicans were all over on tv condenming him, saying they could never support that. Now it's a Republican president, and they can't wait to give him whatever he wants. They're playing politics with the security and well-being of the country.

Thanks, SW. Bumped for reading when I can comprehend, like in the morning.

Next election, I'm voting for whichever candidate puts halting immigration first--

After 9/11 I thought for sure things would change - people would start being concerned about immigration, government officials would start closing our borders, the news would cover this as a major crises ect...
None of that happened, no one blamed 9/11 on our immigration policies, FOX News, Rush, O'Reilly they all disappointed me.
So I like you will vote with immigration as a litmus test but unfortunately the masses wont even consider it.

You have showed me no supreme court cites

Congress' power to admit aliens under whatever conditions it lays down is exclusive of state regulation. The States ''can neither add to nor take from the conditions lawfully imposed by Congress upon admission, naturalization and residence of aliens in the United States or the several states. State laws which impose discriminatory burdens upon the entrance or residence of aliens . . .  conflict with this constitutionally derived federal power to regulate immigration, and have accordingly been held invalid.''  (Takahashi v. Fish & Game Commission, 334 U.S. 410, 419 (1948); De Canas v. Bica, 424 U.S. 351, 358 n. 6 (1976); Toll v. Moreno, 458 U.S. 1, 12 -13 (1982). See also Hines v. Davidowitz, 312 U.S. 52, 66 (1941); Graham v. Richardson, 403 U.S. 365, 376 -380 (1971).)

As long as this thread is, it is a "must read."

The son of one of the war lords in Somalia was a Corporal in the USMC reserves. I THINK he was Adid's son,but may be wrong about that last detail.

He was a Corporal (active duty) in 1st Bn, 8th Mar. and he was Adid's son. We both served together in 1/8 at the same time. He was in a different Company, and we never met, but I heard that when we got to Somalia, he was not allowed to go ashore.

I also heard he just took over as some type of head honcho in Somalia.

[Illegal immigration--it's not just for Mexicans anymore]

I remember a comedy from the 80s called "Born in East LA". The central character was a vato from Eas'Los who got deported in a roundup. He didn't speak Spanish, only that pidgin gang slang and so he went to work for an American in Mexico who was helping wetbacks get across. One of his job assignments was to train some non-Mexicans to act like vatos from his barrio because they didn't speak Spanish or English. I think that deal about ME's and others coming in via Mexico has been going on for a long, long time.

Yep, I've been a fan of both those fellows for quite awhile now. Sowell's a professor too, I forgot. He has my respect and admiration as well. You may remember during Gore's election tantrum in Florida that Foxnews had a legal professor from GMU on as a commentator. His name was William Lash. Dr. Lash had a slight stutter and didn't have the slick presence of Judge Napolitano (the liberal jerkoff shyster) but he called correctly what the supremes would do 100% of the time while Napolitano was predicting that they would do what he would do in their place. There are some good minds at George Mason.

The cost of immigration to the American taxpayer in 1997 was a NET (after subtracting taxes immigrants pay) $70 BILLION a year,[Professor Donald Huddle, Rice University].

A lot of toilets can be cleaned with that kind of money.

Well, well, well...the truth comes out of you finally. Here you were spouting off about how you only want better lives and to help us out, all the while you knew what the real plan was. Fox must be proud of you.

FYI This was Indian land not yours and even if it had been, someone would have pissed it away long ago. It is people like you that make people like me want the borders SEALED and send you all back to where you come from.

Go ahead and gloat. Just remember Americans wont go down without a fight.

[Twodees]

Sure there's something we can do about it, boy. We can just let the Apache, Comanche and Navajo loose on you again. They still hate your asses. Y'all would go home pretty quickly if we did that.

[Native American Female Vet]

LOL It seems you and I think the same ;-)

[WRhine]

We are taking our old land back and there is nothing you peoble can do about it!

Keep talking. I love it when belligerent, semi-literate radicals tell us what they are going to do to America.

[Reaganwuzthebest]

I'm not saying a firestorm is going to happen, only that if we are to stop the invasion, it's the only thing that will.

You are right though - beer, potato chips, and the couch appear to be the order of the day for now.
