There are 1,000,000 illegal Mexicans in my state

Absolutely NOT true.

Findings
Impact of Illegal Aliens.
Table 1 shows which states gain and which states lose when illegal aliens are taken out of the 2000 Census counts. The table shows that four states each had one fewer seat because of the presence of illegal immigrants. Indiana, Michigan, and Mississippi each lost one seat in the House, and Montana failed to gain a seat it otherwise would have gained because of the inclusion of illegal aliens in the 2000 Census. California picked up three seats because of illegal aliens and, surprisingly, North Carolina also gained an extra seat. Although the INS estimates that North Carolina is home to only 3 percent of the nation’s total illegal population, the state was right on the threshold of gaining an additional seat; the presence of nearly 200,000 illegal aliens allowed it to be awarded an additional seat.

The situation is bad enough without false information being posted.

Come take a trip through my state and make a casual estimate. I think a million is an understatement. They've even taken up a dozen units of Section VIII welfare housing a few blocks from my home. Packs of them are everywhere, in the city, in the little towns, out in the country. We now have two television stations catering to them, with a third on the way.

You can't run interference for W from reality forever.
