That's one way to spin it, I guess...
Also, given that 14 million Americans cannot find a full-time job, we should avoid amnesties, guest worker programs, etc., and truly start deporting the illegals so that we can protect American workers' wages and have a lower American unemployment rate.
Fun with illegal immigration PING!
I feel so much safer now that those parrot smugglers are behind bars.......
I am saddened, although not surprised, that money has trumped national security and sovereignty.
LOL! God bless you, Tom. Give 'em h*ll!
Tolerance, thanks for posting this! It was great! :)
No Norwegian Blues? Lovely plumage...
That's total BS and you know it.
Is there a "Conservative Parrot" ping list? I know my wife would love to be on it. See, she's got this thing for birds, and for years she's bugged me for a parrot. I've tried to explain to her that the Jack russells and the Manx cats like parrots, too. This approach has done little disuade her. But I figure if I keep her occupied with reading about parrots, she won't have time to bug me for one.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Or, as glen Beck would say, " Happy Ramahanakwanzmas!"
It's not a silly as it sounds. While I agree the borders need to be protected from illegal humans (pleasse don't send them here), there are many danges posed by animals. Ever heard of Bird Flu, Congressman? How about West Nile Virus? Leptospirosis? All carried and transmitted by birds.

This would be a funny article if it weren't so true and scary and maddening.
"...if somebody who is here working wants to be a citizen, they can get in line like those who have been here legally..."
It is high time that the President and everyone else begin to understand that the line to wait for citizenship has to be formed on the south side of the US/Mexican border. Those on this side illegally should be deported and not allowed in the line for some period of time - say 5 or 10 years, and then only if they have remained south of the border.

The EXCUSE that we need ILLEGALS to "do jobs Americans won't do" is a farce! How long do illegal immingrants intend to do these jobs? Forever? No. AT most they will do these jobs for a generation and their offspring will not be doing them at all, since that is the American Dream.
So, inevitably, the stream of illegals coming to the US MUST NEVER END. It MUST continue indefinately so that no American born passed 1980 will EVER have to work at McDonalds or clean a toilet!
