None of the September 11 hijackers was Mexican. It seems ridiculous to punish them.

What the hell kind of leap of logic is that!?

The kind that tries to cross a chasm with two leaps, and then pretends it didn't hurt upon impacting the canyon floor.

Isn't this whole idea of making the criminal Mexicans legal a bit disrciminatory? If we use the liberal dictionary of terms we can even say it is racist because the want for amnesty does not include other nationalities.

It's just another example of Emerson's famous quote, "a foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines."

It seems to escape the folks who make arguments like this that there is more than one reason to be concerned about immigration....
