The fact that Texas seems to be leading the way in caving in to Mexico, and the Bush family history of doing business in both Mexico and Texas and governing in Texas, and Bush43's appointment of a Tex-Mex as AG, all seems to be related, doesn't it?

Well planned, no coincidence...

Americans of all races will do these jobs that the illegals are doing right now.

Our culture of free govt money inhibits many from taking low pay jobs. You can make more just taking child support or charity or pan handling.

The employers just want to hire the illegal because they can get around government regulations and taxes.

Some do and some don't. One thing for sure, employers like seeing a friendly face to work with, not the surly unionistas that have stagnated our work ethic with "we'd rather die than take a paycut".

Even a partial border fence would be a huge improvement. Suppose the fence covered only 1/3 of the border, in the areas with the most traffic and where construction is easiest. The Border Patrol resources would be mostly concentrated on the remaining open 2/3 of the border. A team would be contantly fixing the holes and tunnels in the portion of the completed fence. The problem can be managed, with a huge reduction in people crossing.

I was on a thread about 4-5 months ago about this subject and I was arguing against a fence with the other posters that were FOR a fence.... I have since changed my mind---I don't see any other way, and the fence/barrier in Israel is working so well, that it just may come down to that...actually part of the REAL ID Act that was just passed with the Emerg. Supplemental Bill, calls for the fence in California to be completed. Therefore, we know that a significant number of congresscritters are agreeable to a fence....

I'm not thrilled with the idea of a barrier either. I grew up in a time when we taught in school proudly of how we have the longest unguarded borders in the world. But the alternatives seem to be worse.

why doesn't fox just say mexico, or more acturatly their states/prefectures, are applying for US statehood. If mexican lands are stats of the USA it solves all the issue fox is so worried about. Of course it wipes out his source of corruption money.

You MUST be asking yourself why Bush doesn't want to do any of the above.

From a previous thread I wrote:

I have been pondering this situation myself. I think it has to do more with arrogance. Bush, Clinton, McCain, the WSJ, and the myraid other open borders/free trade crowd simnply just can't envision the destruction of our culture and the erosion of our society. They believe the power and strength of the U.S. is immutable. It's just not possible for them to believe that their actions and decisions will be ever be detrimental to the U.S.

The republicans see themselves as both benevolent to immigrants and providing a source of labor for industry (such as it is these days). The left, of course, is only advocating illegal immigration to create a class of people who feel beholden to them so they can return to power.

In any case, neither side can look into the future far enough to imagine a U.S. that has been ruined. Both have evolved into political parties that believe that they are not bound by the history of human societal evolution: They each believe their way will be the first in the histoyr of man to triumph.

Our "leaders", both political and corporate, today are so insulated from the world of the common man that they think their insulation extends to the rest of us. They have enough wealth and power to protect themselves from any societal destruction that they simply cannot imagine it happening at any level of U.S. society.

There is historical precedent to show that when the top of society becomes to heavy it becomes unbalanced and is that much easier to topple. The U.S. is becoming more and more top heavy every year. Soon, external and internal forces will cause it to topple. Unless something is done to change the direction our "leaders" are taking us.

I don't understand---why would you want to "get ahead" by taking Spanish at UTA?

Shouldn't it be that THEY take English? I am not so ready to turn over our AMERICANISM to a bunch of foreigners!

If I were going to take a foreign language it might be Japanese or some language that would help be in BUSINESS---

Do you think you are gonna get rich by learning Spanish?

I am not flaming you---on the contrary, the idea of an American taking Spanish so he/she can "fit in" to a future in AMERICA is down right scary!

I havent posted here for many many months..

It's nice to see you again.

and the reason essentially was I was sick and tired of being called a xenophobe and a racist because of my position regarding illegal immigration.

It's hard to ignore, but try. Sometimes it's just easier, though, to quit reading these news stories and FR for a spell. I know my blood pressure doesn't need to go higher. :-)

muchas gracias, amigo.

I can read Spanish (studied too much latin and french) but I cannot compose in it.

May I suggest the addition of "puta" between "chingada," and "y arreglas"?

I agree that our "leaders" are out of touch with the common American because they're living in their ivory towers. What I wonder about is how innocent their actions are. They can't be that ignorant, no way.

What do I think their intentions are (both parties)? The "new world order" as mentioned by Poppy Bush and smiled upon by Clinton, continued by puppet Bush Jr. Extinction of the middle class, king of the world stuff...the very rich and the very poor, nothing in between. What else can explain the government-assisted invasion of America by a third world country, forcing America to pay the bill? Police state tactics.

I realize I'll get flamed for this, but I think it's true.
