Right now the fertility rate in the US is 2.1 or replacement rate.

That's only if you include in the Hispanic immigrant population. Without them, we're at 1.6--in other words, the Hispanics are all that's keeping us at replacement at the moment.

But never fear, we're teaching them how to destroy abort, contracept, and sodomize themselves into oblivion so soon they'll be no threat.

You miss the point. We are above replacement when you include immigration. Our population is increasing at about 1% a year or 3 million people. Since 2000, we have added 25 million people or about the population of Texas. In the next 40 years we will add 135 million to our population or the equivalent of the populations of Mexico and Canada.

An Older and More Diverse Nation by Midcentury

The US will have a population approximating half a billion by 2060. We have all the people we need. And importing the poor and undeducated does not help us in the long term.
