MODERATOR, PLEASE REINSTATE THE ARTICLE I POSTED BY TED RALL. OR AT LEAST READ IT FIRST.

In this case, Rall correctly points out that if a poor nation like the former USSR could control its enormous borders

Mao's China also could control its boarders and that wasn't a rich nation. Cuba controls its boarders pretty well even today.

Golly, how do those poor nations manage it!!

You have to be a real Kool-Aide drinker to follow Rall. I think 35-40% of the population now falls into that category, after Clinton people will accept any type of rude, vulgar behavior. It's the Clinton Legacy.

Actually this thread has quite a history.

I just received some comments on it and after responding, more came.

I'm sick at home with time on my hands, so why not work at persuading some people?

Perhaps one day you too will call for the control of our borders.

[HighFlier]

Bad English perhaps. LOL I'm not thin-skinned so fire away.

Banned!

I see more than a few of that percentage in here CT, and on a college campus I go to on occasion. It boggles me how they have been brainwashed, it really does. Clinton did a lot more damage than I thought possible.

[HighFlier]

I know where you are coming from, but sometimes I enjoy reading those posts with "</sarcasm>" tags.

[bigsigh]

I enjoy reading sarcasm, it's the need for tags that I find annoying.

[HighFlier]

Right you are. Just look at that Churchill fellow.

[John Lenin]

I came to the same conclusion last night when I tried to figure out how America got so messed up in the last 30 years, I figured out that it was the 90's when things really went crazy, the Clintons unleashed all the domestic terrorists in this country under the radar and they came out of the woodwork once Bush got in. As much as I hate the Patriot Act I'm glad it's their for the time being. These morons have to be taken down.

[HighFlier]

I didn't know the link was no long valid. This is a very old thread. But I like the debate it brings.

[MeekOneGOP]

Uh, Dude ..... your link is bad:

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=127&ncid=748&e=2&u=/ucru/20050119/cm_ucru/legalsafeandcommon

[HighFlier]

You could be right about that (trying to track businesses hiring illegals), but I have seen numerous articles that point out businesses that have openly hired illegals. Some are probably fairly obvious, like growers.

[HighFlier]

I'm with you.

[HighFlier]

I see what you mean.

[HighFlier]

I was just told about the bad link. This is a very old post. The main topic on it now seems not to be the story, but whether or not stories like this (or more appropriately stories by authors like this) should be allowed to be posted.

Thanks.

"We must seal the borders and
put a moritorium of 10 years on all Immigration Now. "

Barbara Jordan chaired the US Commission on Immigration and reported recommendations to Congress in 1995. The bipartisan commission was right on, and if the jerks in Congress, from Gingrich on down, had paid attention, we would be in far better circumstances today.

Read her summary statement here.

Oh, yeah. I see now that you posted it a month ago.

Eyes open now. Thanks. :^)

There is a lot about the Patriot act that bugs me, but the good thing is that right now it seems to be doing what needs to be done about the morons. A lot of the problems (I think) stem form the haste in it's passing right after 9/11

I forget, when is the PA's sunset date?
I know there is some serious tweaking to be done to it
