"A citizen that commits a crime is something we have to deal with. An Illegal Alien committing crime is something we should not have to deal with."

That would be the ideal. But such is not the case. Crime is crime and can and should be prevented regardless of citizenship.

She might fit in with PJB's crowd if she donned a flaming pitchfork.

Congress acts with the best interest of the country in mind not MY interest. There are exceptions but for the majority their actions are based upon what they believe to be best. Claiming those who disagree with you are "corrupt" is silly.

Good lord. Google!

There is rarely an immigration thread here that doesn't quote the stats. They are very high.

Here, it's the first hit:
"In Los Angeles, 95 percent of all outstanding warrants for homicide (which total 1,200 to 1,500) target illegal aliens. Up to two-thirds of all fugitive felony warrants (17,000) are for illegal aliens."

Look, she has her right to her opinion; but when she starts it off using "George W. Bush II" I might as well be reading words written by Michale Kinsley.

In all seriousness, the woman is an embarrassment. Eagle's up.

Third party last time was The Constitution Party.

And the guy who FOUNDED The Constitution Party endorsed Bush.

I agree with you on spending, which is an embarrassment under a Republican majority, but inflation has been in the low single digits for years.

What is your definition of inflation? Food, fuel, housing and commodities are all up, when the boarder is closed LABOR will rise.

Anyway.....

"I'm not now, nor ever been, a one issue voter."

Immigration is not now, nor has it ever been, "one issue". It effects every social issue to some degree. Pick one, health care, education, any one, there will be some measurable impact from immigration.

What is their source? Its a stat that is non sourced in the article. How can you give credence to it? BTW, how many homocides are even solved in LA County? I would venture a guess, without a cited source, its around 50 percent or less. So it really doesn't mean anything does it.

How about the border fence legislation and the $40 billion curb in spending growth? Modest? Yes. A good start? Probably not even as much as that. But it's something and shows our voices are finally being heard on these issues. Am I about to waste my vote on a 3rd party wet dream or stay home and pout and not vote just as we're beginning to see some signs of life on these issues? Hell no! I'm going to do whatever I can to keep and enlarge the GOP majority in the hope we'll continue to see forward movement on these issues. The alternative is Speaker Pelosi, Majority Leader Reid, Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy and House Ways and Means Chair Charlie Rangle? Is that what you want? If you think you're not getting enough of what you want now, just wait until we're stuck with the Party of Evil running the Congress and see how much of WHAT YOU DON'T WANT you'll be getting.

The fact is the Democratic party is so extreme and lunatic that we do not have the luxury of pouting or 3rd party follies in this upcoming election. In more reasonable times, maybe. But not with the Democratic party in the absolute grip of evil and extremism waiting in the wings to take over. No way.
