Sentiment Against Illegals is Powerful and Growing

Had any hospitals in your area closed due to illegal aliens? Have your taxes raised due to illegals (actuall you have if you pay Income Tax)? Seen your infrastructure crumble under the weight of illegals?

On The Day Without Illegals, traffic was GREAT. We saw what a day without illegals was like and we LIKED IT.

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).

Except Secion 8, WIC, Food Stamps, School Budgets, Road Repair, etc.

A redirection of tax dollars from other purposes to support illegals IS using them.

I'm not sure we're on the same wavelength here. I was saying that the anti-illegal immigration groups (MMP, etc.) have organized without using taxpayer dollars. Is that also what you're referring to?

Traffic was down 50% on the 405 in So. California. Amazing!

He was talking about the minutemen, DD.

Indiana?? My God, now they have the midwest too.

Dude, come to Ohio. We are swamped with aliens here in Columbus.

[buccaneer81]

The SSA informs employers if they have a SS#/name mismatch

Last year I got a letter from the IRS telling me that my 9 year old son's SSN was used on another tax return. Identity theft by somebody, possibly by an alien.

When Woodrow Wilson was President, around 1914, he wanted to overthrow the regime of Huerta in Mexico. This so enraged the Mexicans that they tied the American flag to the tail of their donkeys to sweep the streets. Information for ideas...

I still don't get what he's talking about. LOL.

[stephenjohnbanker]

We have 5-6 MILLION of them in California. They are taking over 200,000+ population cities here, one after the other.
And yet we have many FReepers that see no problem, and are blindly following Bush. INCREDIBLE!

And the pisser is they have that person's return address & employer (W2) & yer screwed.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Well, I plead the 5th.............or has the govt. outlawed that too? : )

Yep. I asked the IRS if they could track the return and they said yes, but the Social Security Administration is the only agency that can help.

The IRS said PRIVACY rules prevent them from going after the bums who used my kid's SSN.

What a country!

[TheOracleAtLilac]

& if the bum's working for wages, SS knew of the bad # months before the filing & only informed the employer.

FWIW, I believe U can contact SS & report the problem & they'll minimize down the road damage.

The national news media, which spent most of its energies covering the marches as a heartwarming civil rights effort, is belatedly recognizing that much of America doesn't see it that way. As the Los Angeles Times reports, "Activists who take the toughest stance against illegal immigration have formed too many groups to count, and more seem to crop up every week."

...Editorialists seem to discuss the illegals mostly in terms of compassion and the impossibility of deporting the 11 million already here. But the core of the problem is that illegal entry is a never-ending process....

The PROPAGANDA CAMPAIGN AIN'T WORKIN' ping!

Three cheers for Lou Dobbs! I'm a Lou Dobbs kind of conservative voter. My only problem with Dobbs is he's too negative on Iraq. That's too easy and gives aid and comfort to our enemies.

[stephenjohnbanker]

"The IRS said PRIVACY rules prevent them from going after the bums who used my kid's SSN. "

They LIED!! There is no privacy law protecting identity theft.

[La Enchiladita]

Thanks for the ping.

BTTT. It think it's true and am glad Lou Dobbs is giving a voice to our "sentiment."

"The PROPAGANDA CAMPAIGN AIN'T WORKIN' ping!"

As the traitors in Washington will soon learn.

[hinckley buzzard]

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.

The reconquista faction is not interested in the slightest in making a decent living. After Aztlan assumes jurisdiction, they will confiscate all property and the jefe's in charge will greedily fall to the plundering of the spoils of the American Southwest in an orgy that will last for a whole generation. "Jobs? We doan' need no steenkin' jobs. We got zjour country, mon!"
