Stinks. You taxes to educate illegal aliens

[Brownie74]

....when's the rest of Mexico moving in?

Funny you should mention this. I was just sitting here thinking about the day we go to our mailbox and find a letter from the government that will require us to board a Mexican family.

We give them everything else - might as well let them have my last pair of Fruit of the Looms!!

". Obviously the parents brought them over, so they had no idea that they were undocumented and they had no idea that they were 'illegal'," he said. "We can't blame the kids for what their parents did."

B S </font size=6>Old enough to be a high school graduate, smart enough to be accepted into a college and "had no idea" they were undocumented!?!? Give me a break, you have assemblymen willing to let someone blatantly pull the wool over their eyes.

I'm truly sorry for your state of affairs.

A citizen of Arizona has to pay higher rates than a citizen of Mexico! How have these people gotten so far without being deported? K-12, now college, and no one has questioned their citizenship? Liberal programs and quasi-open-borders are a dangerous combination.

We have the same here in Texas, in-state tuition rates for their college education,

Well then, it must be from the hands of God.

Don't dare object!

I just watched Peter Jennings on ABC. He said that in Washington, world leaders come and go but Vicente Fox gets more attention than most. Bush looked like he was totally lost.

[HalfIrish]

Have you seen this thread, Mercuria? Now Bush is seriously considering using HIS (negligibly argued) executive privilege to protect Clinton. So he not only bends over for Fox, he bends over for Clinton, too.

[B4Ranch]

State Sovereignty Socialism is here. Sit down shut up and do as you are told or else we all will have to pay for your misdeeds! The good peoples, American citizens and illegal aliens have voted in the present government and you do not count anymore.

If you think I don't comprehend the situation, ask your President. He will tell you I am one of the few who is fully aware of what is happening in these United States.

Now, I will go into the bedroom and continue to cry with the Founders.

[sarcasm]

"What our thinking is, is that these kids are here for most of their lives, they are not going to go anywhere,

I can think of a place that they can go.

[HEFFERNAN2]

Thank you very much for the information...These guys are going to get flamed by the Irishman. Semper Fi, Mike

[Dutchy]

BTTTT....

[Gritty]

I say let 'em give them the tuition. Then these illegals will get a better education, take their jobs, and vote their own government in - either throwing out the Socialists, or putting worse in. Who cares? Kalifornia's gone. Just about anything would beat what is in there now.

Yup. Give the illegals a chance to take over Kalifornia, fair and square. Just don't let those fleeing Kali as immigrants come to my state. Seal the borders of Kali with the AZ, NV and OR National Guard, and shoot to kill. They caused their own problems in theirs! We don't need their idiotic Socialism in ours.

A Pox on their house, if they plan to pass laws like these. Let 'em reap what they sow.

[ex-snook]

Guess 'illegal' is the operative word. Maybe Bush and California will grant amnesty to any Little Leaguer faking his age and allow them to compete. Depends on what the meaning of 'illegal is' is. Does it have anything to do with laws or does it have to do with vote pandering?

[firebrand]

They never should have received K-12 education to begin with. Their parents should have received temporary work visas and when their parents' temporary work visas expired, the whole family should have been sent home. Naturally if they have thought of themselves as just like legal residents and citizens for all these years, they are going to demand in-state college tuition rates too. I think it's too late. Unless everybody really gets mad, it's already too late.

[Joe Hadenuf]

I think Texas already did this. The insanity continues.

[Joe Hadenuf]

You may be right. We are being sold out. No question.

[Keyes For President]

When will the insanity stop?

[Joe Hadenuf]

I thought I heard that New Jersey was considering allowing illegal aliens to vote in local elections.

Did anyone else hear this today on radio news? Is this true?

[Joe Hadenuf]

It doesn't look good when you have the President of Mexico at the White House today, making dead lines, on demands.
