The reality is most Illegals don’t give a rats butt about the US or have any patriotic feeling for it.

I suspect you are right that most “Illegals” do not have any patriotic feeling for our country. My son-in-law is a “legal” immigrant who fully appreciates our country and embraces our conservative heritage. We need to be sure that we do not push those away who wish to join in just because they are not white, Anglo-Saxon, protestants.

And I don’t blame them either.

They are economic refugees who left their families, neighbors and country.

They are people coming to the land of opportunity to better their lives and that of their children.

For most illegal immigrants they consider themselves Mexican, Guatemalans, etc.

They didn’t come here to become an American.

That is why I am against reform.

Get in line like the guys and gals of India who spend years and thousands of dollars to become an American.

Or like mu friends from Argentina who came here and spent more than 10 years in the hope they would become a citizen.

What does their sacrifice mean if illegals can simply be pardoned and made an American rather than earn it like so many before them?

Ethnic diversity is OK, but cultural diversity causes balkinization!
