I think you would be surprised how many LEGAL IMMIGRANTS feel the way I do, i hear them on the radio everyday. They came here the correct way, and work hard like us. We need to do something, or we will never get this under control. |

Since you only listen to right wing talk radio, who else do you think would call in? I'm no fan of illegal immigrants, or immigration. I just detest bigotry. |

Good for you! You'll positively get a much better perspective on the situation than listening to Limbaugh or Beck or watching O'Reilly, Hannity, or the other nitwits on Faux.
Maddow intelligently reports the truth. The others make up crap.
But, then, you obviously know that. |

Illegal immigration has dropped nearly in half (numbers to last fall) since the start of the recession. So, if high unemployment is Obama's fault, is the reduction in illegal immigration his victory?
In the interest of accuracy, Matty, your source includes a "factoid" that the US furnishes $320 B to illegals. Not possible. The Pew research center claims around 11 to 12 million undocumented immigrants. Actually, the total has dropped in the past couple years.

Of course, the big question is what to do about illegal immigrants. Tightening up the borders and laws regarding employment both make sense. To me, so does providing a path to citizenship. If we tighten borders, attrition may continue to reduce the problem on a yearly basis without resorting to mass extradition.
You want to help lower crime rate creeping over our border from the south...deal with the drug problem in this country. Instead, we cut funding for drug treatment programs and programs to keep at risk kids from drug riddled environments. Some of us bitch about drug crimes while toking a j. |

No, no, of course not. Have you lost your good senses?
High unemployment is totally and strictly Obama's fault, as is 100% of the deficits and global warming and the high cost of energy. He was also responsible for swine flu and the tsunami and light bulbs.
The drop in illegal immigration is obviously due to all the policies and practices that were instituted by the previous administration.
The previous administration should be commended for the planning that led to the successful execution on bin Laden, but Obama alone was at fault for the crashed helicopter and the east coast earthquake yesterday.
I think it's going to rain tomorrow. Can't Obama get anything right? |

This issue shouldn't surprise or confuse anyone. According to law professor Wendy Murphy, 70% of the people receiving free health care in Mass are illegal aliens. It's part of Gov Patrick's far left agenda to boost the number of Democratic votes at any fiscal, moral, and body count cost. |
