This week, as a guest on a Spanish language radio show, President Obama stated his continued support for giving amnesty to 12 million illegal immigrants, which would force Americans looking for a job to compete with amnestied aliens for work. (El Piolin Interview, February 18, 2009 and CBS4 — South Florida).
During the radio interview, President Obama said: "We're going to start by really trying to work on how to improve the current [immigration] system so that people who want to be naturalized, who want to become citizens … are able to do it; that it's cheaper, that it's faster, that they have an easier time in terms of sponsoring family members." Following that, President Obama acknowledged what legal American workers already know intuitively — that amnesty is not in their best interest — but then endorsed amnesty anyway. President Obama said: "And then we've got to have comprehensive immigration reform. … Politically it's going to be tough. It's probably tougher now than it was, partly because of the fact that the economy has gotten worse." (El Piolin).

That’s it! Bring in more poverty to America. Americans aren’t miserable enough yet. I’m going to choke the next bass turd who tells me about how bad “poverty” is in this country. If poverty is so damn bad, why the hell are we importing more of it?
One thing I believe you’re missing is that the illegals are working for illegal wages - that’s why they’re here. It’s against the law for employers to hire citizens under the same conditions. So if Juan from Guatemala is working on a lawn-service crew and gets deported, his employer is not going to be looking to replace him (at three times the wages, plus benefits) with a citizen.
I think they were put on alert for a possible call up.
I do not know. I now live in Virginia and am out of the loop on Texas’ goings on.
that's just the southern part of California....
Thanks.
Mexico is actually a simple problem. Simply annex the country, and treat it as a colonial entity, part of the greater American empire.
The US hasn’t annexed any territory since McKinley. If you want to restore the American Empire, you will probably need to wait until there is another Republican president.
Union SUCKERS!
Many of the idiots who voted for this travesty will come to realize what a colossal mistake they made.

Makes political sense.
Obama solidifies the Mexican vote and ensures black remain on the government plantation.
Its a two for.
.....Its a two for......
Rob the country, prop up the decaying cities.
At the rate they are moving... it will not be long.

Why I am Not Surprised? Typical NWO ‘0’ Puppet Move...Biden. Franks, Dodd, & Polesuki leading the way.
Keep yer powder dry and be prepared for all kinds of shortages.

“Is there a 12 step program or psych group for people like me?”
Can you let me know when you find it?
I’m in the same boat.
He, Peloosy, and Reid are running hell bent for leather for the prize before 2 years is up.
They will not repeat the RAT "mistake" when they took too much time and lost their socialist medicine opportunity in 1994 via the Gingrich Revolution.
By the time 2010 rolls around, we will be living in "Utopia" along with the new illegal-to-legal citizen converts. You will not be able to vote them out because of the Federally subsidized power of ACORN.
Rural America is gonna be a tough nut to crack.
