Try again to explain to me why you excuse the fraud and deceit of illegal immigration and illegal tax evasion resulting in lower wages in the US but choose not to excuse the fraud and deceit you perceive in the Iraq war.

I'm sure we both agree that if the government could make money taxing the air we breathe, they would do it.

Yet, they literally turn their back to enforcing immigration laws.

Why do you suppose that is? Because I'm right and you're wrong, that's why.

You excuse illegal immigration for the same reasons you "sometimes drive 80mph" or "fail to wear your seatbelt".

I assert that is false - further I assert that you have another unstated reason.

The only likeness driving without a seatbelt, driving over the speed limit, and illegally entering the US all have is that they are all illegal. I'm glad you at least admit that much.

But that's where the similarity ends. It doesn't cost me when you drive 80. It doesn't cost me if you choose to not wear a seat belt. But it does cost me when someone illegally enters the US. Do you fail to see the obvious differences making your analogy laughable?

Why not tell the real reasons behind your positions? Are you afraid of telling them?
