This is the quote:

We hear claims that immigrants are somehow bad for the economy even though this economy could not function without them. All these are forms of economic retreat, and they lead in the same direction toward a stagnant and second-rate economy.

He DID NOT say "illegals" no matter how you want to spin it.

I don't care what you ~think~ he meant.

Now there is the EXACT QUOTE; thanks Corin.

Any of you who say different are damned liars. But I'm expecting to see it.

Bull crap. We hear claims that immigrants are somehow bad for the economy

The only time anyone EVER talks of immigrants being bad for the economy it's talk of ILLEGALS. You're deliberately being mislead and defending an indefensible policy of essential amnesty for illegals, continued coddling of the corrupt Mexican cartels and puppet leadership.

I have never in my life heard where immigrants can hurt this country. Illegal immigrants do. Read between the lines. I don't think the Minutemen are along the our borders trying to stem the flood of Irish illegals from flooding our country. Jeez, get real. We are a country of immigrants...not illegal immigrants.
