Thank God we have representative government, with some semblance of rational, thought-out decision making, rather than the angry masses ruling via direct voting.

I'm just wondering what the nation's demographics for people under 45 or so are. B/c that's gonna be our demographic as a nation in about 20 to 25 years plus/minus immigration (legal or illegal), and birth rates amongst the varying subsections.

Somehow I don't think that traditional Americans are gonna have a substantial margin of majority. Utopia for some. We'll see what it does to this nation.

In this case, it's more like phony reporting season. CBS has picked and chosen from among a set of statistics that pretty much match the last Field poll.

Yeah, I figured. That's what they did on the last poll. The data was overwhelmingly against open borders, but they found one scrap that somewhat favored them, twisted it and headlined it.

Maybe if we ban all abortions that us white folk are getting, it won't be so bad?

The last CA Field Poll on this issue was much more extensive, by the way.

This one is a joke.

Let me guess! Illegal aliens and their families were polled and found to be supportive of illegal aliens?

Ahhh yes, the fruits of the morality that we've chosen as a nation.

Here's the September CA poll.

http://field.com/fieldpollonline/subscribers/RLS2171.pdf

81% expressed some level of concern about illegal immigration.

Hmmm...looks like little has changed since September but the Field sample and the media spin.

The poll that you linked to show that the voters agree with Bush in opposing vigilante groups.

Maybe you wrote their headline.

Sure. Have fun misrepresenting it, as your posts here show that you are determined to do.

Misrepresenting? It speaks for itself.

"Yes I Know that you want to deport the illegals, but that is not being discussed in DC."

Red herring. I never said anything like that. I just want our border patrol properly manned, maybe a fence/wall, and no amnesty. Never said anything about deporting them all, though a certain percentage wouldn't hurt.

Leave the Illegals alone.


Arrest, convict, fine and incarcerate for a minimum of ten years all those that are hiring illegals.

And yes I mean the rich old couple with their maid too. Wrong is wrong and illegal is illegal.

If they can't get work, there is not reason for them to be here.
