There are two problems
1 (if I may quote Marine Inspector)
"Our immigration laws amount to efforts to repeal reality. There is honest work available in the United States for people from Mexico willing to do it. The legal-immigration quotas are unrealistically low."
2 Mexico/Central America. A question I heard a couple of years ago, "Have you ever noticed that there are not 10's of thousands of Canadians swarming over our northern border?" They (Illegals) aren't coming here because 1 we're such warm fuzzy people or 2 they've always dreamed of cleaning our hotel rooms. It's because we have jobs and they don't, and they will keep coming until there are jobs there.
It seems unfair to legal immigrants who have to fight our bureaucracy to come here. These guys came up here against the law, and now we find some of them may be Moslem terrorists disguised as South American Hispanics. It's scary to me to think a potential terrorist could work in a food plant, oil plant, or sensitive place.
You're right Danny. You may remember stupid CA Lt Governor Bustamonte awhile back addressing a group of black democrats absent mindedly uttered the word "ni66er" 2 or 3 times without virtually a word of reprimand.
Then I suggest a course correction back to the Constitution as the founders envisioned it.
That raises a question about the refinery explosion in Texas. The FBI said they ruled out terrorism. But they haven't determined the cause.
That came to my mind, too, about the explosion at the BP plant. Homeland security has warned about this recently and it seems to be a risk to allow illegals some sort of status when we're at war.
Yea but their Massive War Hardened Military, what would we do about them?
(Sorry I was flashing back to Dan Rather and that crazy Canuck Jennings loser)
Buy Mexico an give it to Haiti? Grrrr, I know.
Did the KKK come up in this story? <(•¿•)>
>>>I believe such an arrangement would be the death of the American middle class, the end of our rule of law, and create a schism in cultures that would make the Balkans look pleasant<<<
You also believe in the Easter Bunny
The Government of Mexico is a couple hundred Thugs and the rest of the population wants to be in the U.S.A.
Seal Team 1 could liberate Mexico by itself, over the weekend while drinking copius amounts of Dos XX.
It isn't DC or Mexico City, hate to say it but it is the "World Community" that would have to be placated. Right now the US has bigger Fish to fry.
"I" like the Annex Idea, I don't know where you get your intel from, hope you didn't pay much for it because it's $hit.
I saw that, too, and had used it for a tag line briefly!
Magnificent Seven <(•¿•)>
I had a Deja vu moment when I heard the "this was not terrorism" line. When flight 587 crashed, I heard some official say the same thing even before the wreckage had cooled.
Because the Bush dynasty is all about a New World Order.
I don't think it would be very good idea for the US to annex Mexico. Do you know how much money Puerto Rico gets from us in welfare payments?
Mexico would bankrupt us from earned income credits alone.
President Bush's answer was a cute politician answer. He did not say the MM Project was vigilantism, he simply stated he disapproved of vigilantism.
Not me. We should all be vigilantes. Citizens should all carry guns and the police should be prohibited from carrying guns.
"On Wednesday President Bush, at the summit meeting with President Vicente Fox of Mexico and Prime Minister Paul Martin of Canada, when asked about the project, said, "I'm against vigilantes in the United States of America. I'm for enforcing the law in a rational way." "
If you were enforcing the damn laws we already have their wouldn't be a minuteman project. We need more of these groups all along our southern borders until our government starts doing what they should have been doing all along.
We had a houseful of illegals cleaned out of our neighborhood.
All it took was a couple of dozen calls to INS....
