"Sentiment Against Illegals is Powerful and Growing"
AS IT SHOULD BE!
Ain't it the damn truth?
Does that mean that Wisconsin is really Germania...when all those Germans settled there way back when?
Not saying that illegal immigration isnt a problem, but this is classic misdirection.
The Federal Goverment needs to keep its eyes on the ball in regard to world wide terrorism, nuke proliferation, and the national economy...empower the states to manage their borders.
The more I see the outrage over illegals, the more I get the sense that something sinister within this country is driving the ire...
Exactly! The in-your-face defiant demonstrating has awakened people to the problem it really is. The fact that they are costing taxpayers in welfare benefits, the overcrowding and the rhetoric where they cite they want all gringo's gone and this is their country and we all need to get out did not help the situation.
Viva la National Security!! Viva la border control!
"The more I see the outrage over illegals, the more I get the sense that something sinister within this country is driving the ire..."
Interesting. I see something more sinister pushing the amnesty and "no borders" crowd. It's called socialism and communism.
There is nothing "sinister" about expecting people to obey the laws of this country. There is nothing "sinister" about protecting our borders. There is nothing "sinister" about attempting to relieve the HUGE burden illegals pose to our social services, prison sysytem and education system. I could go on and on...
Let me see if this makes a much non-sense to others as it does to me.
The illegals who want to "retake" the US southwest via sheer numbers of people voting in the pro Mexican candidates to California's and other states legislatures want to reclaim these states as part of Mexico. So they want to extend the Mexican border to encompass these states and bring in the same corrupt Mexican government they have today to run these states as a part of Mexico. Why? So they can then illegally migrate to the rest of the US to escape once again the corruption, lack of a vibrant job creating economy, rule by bribe or thuggery that is the current state of the Mexican government? What sense does this make. When they have taken over all of the US, where will they then go? to Canada? These people are totally bonkers. To undermine the only country where they can make a decent living, raise their families in relative safety, and maybe realize their aspirations is total insanity. I cannot fathom the mind that thinks this is a good idea.
Not umtil they read their reelection stats.
Perhaps when they need to call Allied Van Lines to come pack them up to move elsewhere (of course never back home where they might have to rub elbows with their great unwashed former electorate.)
I am not in the "open border" crowd. I am in the anti-hysteria...this has been around for 30 years...why is this now being used to bash bush crowd, understand?
Again, Illegal immigration has been a problem but now it's being used as an alarmist propaganda tool of those with an agenda to depose the Republican Leadership. I am also in the rational, get to the root of the problem (Corrupt Mexican Government), crowd.
And they did it without any funding from Soros, the Ford Foundation, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, etc. and with nary a dollar from any government grants (aka taxpayers' dollars).
Ping!
Typical misdirection. There is no comparison between the Germans and other nordic people settling areas in our northeastern states(such as WI) and ILLEGALS swarming across our borders today. The people who settled WI ASIMILATED and didn't maintain a seperate culture, they came here legally and they came to be Americans.
BSing yourself and others about ILLEGALs will not make the problem go away. There is a huge problem here with national security and the soverienty of the US. If you can't see it, I pity you. The republicans pols had better act fast or they will find themselves replaced in Nov.

The Capital of the US should be moved to Phoenix or Denver or Dallas.
More representative of the present instead of the past.

They can't do that! The fence to keep all those poor peasants out would cost too much.
