It's obvious these two are here simply to disrupt. Don't feed the trolls.

You got that right, but there are more than just two of 'em.

FAIR is a well known immigrant hate group.

Do you usually just say whatever pops in your head or would you like to offer some evidence for this charge?

"Sorry to disappoint you, friend, but I ain't no independent!"

I said keep up the independent attitude, not the Independent Party. It was the Independent Attitude that caused the Revolution, not membership in a Party.

I don't recruit for ANY "Party". And since it's impossible to get ALL Independents to agree on a "Party" platform, the best that CAN be done is to vote for your favorite "non-GOP" or "non--Dem" candidate. Unless you feel a strong urge to just Belong to the corrupt two parties, that are actually opposing Mobs, and continue the march to Globalism.

Immigration is the battle that will determine whether our heritage will survive or be driven to extinction.

Wow that almost same passage was said 100 years ago and America is not extinct.

Dane, did you ever say what state you are from?

You are using UK and Australian spellings in your posts. Are you even IN the US?

LOL! I have already stated many replies ago that I from Pittsburgh.

Getting back to your reply #587 do you and Ms. Cleo have meetings in your ""Hall of People who are Smart Enough to Know What is Going to Happen".." weekly or monthly?

You know, ordinarily I'd be open minded enough to listen to the arguments of the five defenders. But, I'm old enough to remember the "one-time" illegal alien amnesty deal of the 1970's. "One-time” means once - not twice.

I won't be fooled again!

"you wouldn't have a whole host other vegetables or food if it wasn't for their labor"

"so you want "expensive" food"

How much of the cost of a head of lettuce goes to pay field workers? According to the University of California, is costs around 22 cents to grow and harvest a head of lettuce. Of that, about 15 cents goes for farm labor. If we doubled the wages of farm workers, the cost of a head of lettuce would increase by fifteen cents -- even less if labor saving machines are justified. For labor costs to force lettuce to $5 per head, farmers would have to pay field workers $280 an hour. At that rate, it would be the kind of work "every American would want to do."

The problem with illegal immigration is not that labor costs too much; it is that growers compete in a commodity market. If one grower can outdo another by using illegal labor, then his profits will increase. Inevitably, all growers must do the same thing to survive. As recent studies show, illegal immigration is driving down the wages of millions of Americans, while at the same time increasing their taxes. To stop this downward spiral we must control the borders and police the work site as well.

Are you acknowledging that you are a malcontent?

I represent that remark. I will stay that way as long as Presidente Jorge keeps up his nonsense about ammesty for illegals.

Sure. Lets try first right here at their website. They are an aryan organization apparently with a compound up in the hills of Northern Michigan.

Don't forget the "one-time" illegal alien amnesty deal of the 1980's.

Here's a nice quote that might be consistent with some of the beliefs you hold near and dear:

"FAIR claims to favor restricted immigration to protect US workers, and to ensure that the US has resources to provide for the people already here. However, many view FAIR as a hate group. FAIR was founded 20 years ago, ostensibly because of concerns about overpopulation. Memos written by the group’s founder, John Tanton, show that the group may have racist overtones. According to this memo, English should be the official language, there is a danger of a Hispanic “population explosion,” and the large number of new immigrants who are Roman Catholic is a concern. Critics of FAIR point out that these are the same concerns expressed by those who opposed the high level of immigration in the early 1900s." LINK
