We hit the streets "en masse" during the recounts in 2000, and in Miami we hit the streets in massive numbers during the Elian Gonzalez affair,..

Cubans took to the streets of Miami over the Elian affair. They had an axe to grind. Did you ever hear of the "silent majority"?

As for taking the jobs, it isn't just about filling positions. It is about lowering wages for those here legally. I drive into DC once a week, and pass by gathering sites set up by the local gumts, to aid the "day laborors". I see dozens, and sometimes hundreds, standing around waiting for the odd pickup truck to whisk them away to their $6-8 an hour jobs. A comparable "local" would get paid twice that.

They are hard workers, but they are also invaders. I have no problems with hispanic peoples (yo habla). I do have a problem with illegality. I have to play by the rules, or go to jail (or pay a fine).

I am a businessman. I pay top wages for the works performed. I am finding it increasingly difficult to compete with those who don't play by the rules! I have loyal workers, and low turnover. They all speak english, and don't take from my grandchildren's heritage. Why should I want to employ an invader? Money is only one part of life, and it is not the MOST important!

We also took to the streets in massive numbers to stop the Democrats from stealing the election in 2000.

Did you?

Quit double-talking.

Out of one side of your mouth you claim that illegals march because they don't have jobs, and out of the other that they steal jobs from Americans...which is it?

Here's another thing we never discuss, the only reason that ten million plus illegal aliens are taking jobs from Americans, is because millions of Americans are giving them jobs.

There are TWO guilty parties here, and two people breaking the law...the person who enters the country illegally, and the person who hires him.

Punish the employers and see how fast the jobs dry up.
