I live on the border where salaries for illegals are well under $15,000 and families are often large ---I would bet the majority of illegals given amnesty in the 80's are using some kind of welfare programs, CHIPS, food stamps, WIC. Most illegals use WIC if they have children and get taxpayer provided health care at the county hospital. Very few illegals get health care benefits from their employers.

I guess as long as you have your steak you will put up with insults, a different language, religion, laws etc. Eventually at the present rate you will be an alien in your own country. But at least you will have your steak-for a while.

It has never been about the Mexican government, it's always been about OUR government. We are so easly misled because the blame always rests with us. "He has so much and we have so little." We have given up the authority to run the country to a bunch of marxist bastards. I say bullshit! We will begin to act as if this is a sovereign nation of God in spite of the govenment, or go down in flames. All real freepers out there, know and understand this. FREEDOM!!!

I think the whole population of southern california needs to go south just before the next mexican presidential election, register with their motor voter laws, and vote in THEIR presidential election.

What? They do not have reciprocity?? < /sarcasm >

The Mexican underclass's exodus into the US is nothing else than the worlds biggest case of "ethnic cleansing",

You are correct, that is exactly what it is!

Right on the money you are. Money goes out of our pockets to the welfare state to provide health care and child care to a group with an ever lower standard of living as more arrive. All this so our gated community RINOs can go to Beaver Creek and and get a cheap vacation.

I have something to say to the G.C. Rinos, as a rural living white man I say, make your own damn beds, cook your own damn food and wash your own dishes and raise your own spoiled brats and if you do all that when I have time I'll show you how to butcher and cut your own meat!!!

Before the business I worked for moved it's location, we became surrounded by a welfare office and a WIC office. Nothing but crowds of Mexicans in line, no other race represented a fraction of the Mexicans in line for the dole. And guess what, not any of them were Americans, they didn't speak a lick of English, everyone that worked in the welfare office had to speak spanish.

Maybe I should go video tape outside that office to prove my point, I would need some help with how to get it online for viewing. A picture is worth a thousand words they say.

For the sake of the United States, and Colorado in particular, the issue of undocumented Mexicans must be resolved, she said.

Who is this broad think is talking to and further more who elected her to tell North Americans what to do.
She should better take care of her own people first who are living in squalor. It's a shame that proud people like the Mexicans are forced to live like cockroaches in shacks made of card boards and pallet wood and eat from a pile of garbage despite aboundant riches from the land.

Mexico as a country and resources available should be on top with other nations, but because of people like this woman is still a third world country who can not find her ass with both hands because is so awkward and upside down. One is asking himself how it is that having this giant[US] as a next door neighbor you never learned anything from?
Questions abound...

You can’t just get rid of them without a lot of economic convulsions.

You talk as though that were a bad thing. Believe me, there are worse things then mere economic ripple effects.

And if you think that the economic effects would be bad now, just wait until we have a civil war on our hands. I'll gladly risk an economic convulsion in the short term if it will save this country in the long term.

The problem with you "economy uber alles" types is that you are horrendously, incorrigibly addicted to short term thinking. Long term thinking is the only way to avoid slipping down from civilization into the swamps of third world barbarism.

Well the government has taught them well since FDR. We also had migrant worker all along.

(......)

But the "not having to learn English" thing happened because of the MC crowd.

And your point is what, exactly? I frankly don't feel that it would make any difference if these people do eventually learn English; there are far too many of them, from a single, neighboring country that resents us, coming over in too short a period of time, to expect them to assimilate into loyal Americans as a group.

Look, there are plenty of people up here in the northeast who still speak German, Italian, Portuguese, etc., in addition to also speaking English, and they are fully assimilated Americans. Their ancestors came here legally, expecting to become Americans. This is not true of most of these Mexicans and Central Americans.

The multi-culturalists make things worse, but we would be having these problems even without them. However, what you do not seem to grasp, is that the left, the socialists, the Democratic Party, and the multiculturalists, are all empowered by this invasion of immigrants. These people count on them for votes and see them as footsoldiers in their assault on traditional America. By not doing anything to stem this tide, by actively encouraging it, Bush and the GOP are helping to ensure that their party is going to be reduced to permanent minority status within a generation. And when that happens, look out: there will be nothing, nothing to stop the outrageous class warfare, multi-culti anti-white political correctness, high taxes, big government, and all the rest. It will be too late.

If you want to reclaim anything worthwhile about the old America, you have to stop immigration now. You can't wait until we "fix" the problems of the welfare state and multiculturalism. By spouting nonsense about the economic impact, the evils of multi-culti or FDR's New Deal, and all the other plethora of excuses, you are avoiding the central question of the day and handing the keys of victory over to your enemies. Take away the power of immigration which the left is counting on, and you have disarmed them. Then, and only then, can we tackle such issues as the evils of the welfare state and multiculturalism.

Rather be under the dictatorship of Bush, than the dictatorship of Buchanan.

You have branded yourself a fascist-loving NWO advocate who is blinded by Bush's self label of "conservative". Well you've got your wish.

BTW, I heard that toadys get a lighter set of chains.

The government of Mexico is a strong believer in sovereignty - for Mexico.

It should be resolved by throwing them all out of the country.

“We would like to see the people of Mexico living in Mexico,” she said.

So would I...all of them.

I'm sure that she has a rather elastic definition of the borders of Mexico.

I read in another article that Mexico has 10 consulate offices here. I have never heard of any other country having consulates all over the U.S.

Does anyone know who approves these consulates and how we could go about stopping the granting of any more? I think we need to get the rest of these extras rescinded and kicked out of the country. They are obviously here to bribe local legislatures within their "region".

Let's not also forget what the Right gets out of this: cheap labor. After having bought up most of the small and private farms, what is left is big corperate farms. These guys care only for the bottom line: they pay as little wages as they can, and the Illegals are the cheapest around.

This results in both the Left and the Right getting something out of the illegals: the Left gets voters and the Right gets cheap labor for their friends in big business. In both cases, we lose.

But, as another poster pointed out: I blame ourselves for this mess. We're the ones who are oh so happy to have cheap produce. We're the ones who are glad that fast-food stays so cheap. Most of all, we're the ones who elect these sons of bitches who, like Bush, want to welcome all these illegals into our lands with open arms...and please send us more!

The claim that America couldn't survive -- that *any* real industry couldn't survive -- without Illegals is a lie. They survived before we had this enormous population of Illegals, therefore they can survive after they're gone. Yes, there'll be a tightening of belts and some hard times until our capatilistic system resets itself to the way it is *supposed* to be -- the way it would be now if Illegals didn't artifically depress low-end wages.

The State Department approves the opening of foreign consulates - the last time that I checked, this department is under the direct control of the President of the United States. It seems, however, that it is controlled by Vicente Fox.

A couple of things:

First, what in the heck are you doing milling about through the pages of the Summit Daily News?

Second, these illegals are part of the landscape of the Colorado tourist (skiing) industry. While us gringos mostly choose to work the "hill", it is the illegals that clean the rooms and wash the linens. Many folks may not like it but it is in fact the way things work and there are very powerful folks who work to insure that the current system remains intact.
