Choose or be chosen for - If you wait until 2007 or 2008, it'll be too late.

I wish there had been more of an outpouring of decent against the day labor site in Arlington County. Then again, it is only surpassed by the City of Alexandria in the amount of loony leftest that occupy its environs.

This trash always gets my blood boiling, and when the media and politicians lump illegal and legal into one category...

First, illegals should be tossed out. Now if only there were some sort of infrastructure for legal workers to find a job. Well there's the classified ads, but that's too obvious. Maybe the offices we dump money into every year that are dedicated to finding people a job. I went to one(heck I'm paying for this trash, might as well use it) and they have a plethora of resources to getting you a job. From resume building, free extra learning classes, to interview training and on and on. Why would you duplicate all that in a building dedicated to keeping people on the low income scale as well as discouraging them from doing anything more with their lives other than working for 50 bucks a day and a free cup of coffee for digging a hole.

The poll finds that a slight majority of northern Virginia residents support using public money for the centers

The article here doesn't mention it, but that "support" among Northern Virginia voters (50%) falls to 34%(with 61% opposed) when they are told that "some of the day laborers were in the country illegally."

When are you people gonna get it through your thick, Neanderthal skulls that it don't make no difference what the voters think?

This is all about "official" power. And Hispandering. And ramming it down your throats. And ignoring the will of the people.

You people who don't want this "regulated site for day laborers" are just a bunch of racists!

Why should there be taxpayer funded sites for day laborers? There are already plenty of private companies that do just that – they are usually called “temps”, but many hire by the day to fill menial labor and other jobs. Should our government compete directly with the private sector?

When it comes to illegal aliens, since when does it matter what the public wants? The businesses and the politicians they own will do what they want anyway.

Liberalism is a cancer that resides in our cities and threatens the rest of the country with its infection. We need to cut out the cancer to save the body.
