"Let's go back to square one. The purpose of American immigration laws and policies is not to be either humane or inhumane to illegal immigrants. The purpose of immigration laws and policies is to serve the national interest of this country."

Regardless of age, this guy always writes stuff I wish I had put into words right after I read what he said.

All this worry about Mexican illegals, amnesty, and who they're going to vote for is besides the point. 911 proved there are people who would do us great harm; "...everyone who comes across the border from Mexico is not Mexican. It is the height of irresponsibility to leave that border open and the people who cross it a protected group."

I agree. The solution is simple. Secure the border and deny all aid to non-citizens except life-saving medical care and the problem will take care of itself.

Unfortunately, politicians are much more influenced by the media, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Hispanic advocacy groups than the voters.
