Not true. I don't have the time during this discussion to look up the facts, but around the turn of the century we took in a huge number of immigrants. Many millions, in a very short period.

I think the numbers were something like 1/3 of the entire population of the country was born elsewhere. That would be like having 60 million illegals here now, not 10 million.

You are a liar. It was not 33%. More like 8-10%

Insults are not becomming. Even if you're right, I have honestly portrayed what I believe is the truth.

Calling me a "liar" is no different than the left calling Bush a "liar" on WMD. Both he and I are honest in what we have told you.

But even if the numbers were 10%, that's still equivalent to 20 million illegals now, not 10.

In the mean time, it would help your argument if you actually had a link on that number. Until then I continue to believe the number was 1/3 of the country at one time was born elsewhere.
