There you have it: If you don't agree to throw your country over to the 3rd world, you're an irrational hater.

LOL! Remember, laws mean nothing to dims. It’s all about perception and feelings...

"crushed the recent proposal in Congress to reform the nation's immigration laws."

'Reform' my eye -- Shamnesty wanted to dispose of them.

Business’s need taxpayers to support their low wage slaves.

Look, news media, people are here illegally, using illegal documents, stolen identities, carrying crime records of unknown lengths, moving in and around us with impunity, being let go on their own recognizance even when they are caught doing something illegal.

What part of “illegal” do you not understand? Why can you not understand this is not a form of racism, but a desire to protect ourselves DURING A DANG TERRORIST WAR!

IDIOTS!

Since when was enforcing our nation's laws "extremist"?

Typical liberal bull-honkey. Since they can't get away with calling anti-illegal forces "racist" (yeah...since when was illegal a race??), they have to resort to maligning those who dare to uphold our laws as some sort of mob.

Funny how these same people who bash the U.S. for daring to enforce its laws consistently turn a blind eye toward how Mexico treats the illegal aliens in their nation, hm?

Swift and others know exactly what they were doing. Meatpacking jobs went from $18/hour to 8-10. They knew that their mainly spanish speaking workforce didn’t come out of thin air and take those low paying jobs.
Those jobs were good jobs for working men with families..they turned them into jobs that couldn’t support one person.

In the Swift case, court records show that the company dutifully filled out required forms known as I-9s when hiring employees.

Dutifully, well why did they need a translator! what a crock,

The reason that immigration reform has failed is that extreme elements are stirring the pots of hatred. [They] are anti-Hispanic

Nice. If you support the rule of law, you are a hateful, extremist bigot.

Did John McCain write this article?

The dims? The dims?

LOL, ah, I think you need to remember which president and senator were trying to push through a ‘not an amnesty’ amnesty.

As for being haters, that comes with the territory when you advocate our nation’s laws be enforced these days.

Our side seems to agree with that as well, sadly.

Maybe Scott cheapo Parson had better try paying 18 bucks an hour for his help instead of 8 and then he’ll have all the reliable help he needs. The cheap bastard. Cheap lying crimminal hiring bastard.

Now that thats over..I have personally witnessed delevolpers here hire illegals to put up their cookie cutter houses (tract housing) and pay them min wage. Then, after the crappy cheap shacks are done, they slap a 300 thousand dollar price tag on them. Problem is, the slime balls cant sell their crappy houses now.

When I see these companies actively recruiting in poor neighborhoods and willing to employ more just out of school workers then I we can talk. Also these companies could sponsor immigrants if they wanted to.

Clark Ivory, CEO of Ivory Homes, the state's largest home builder.

"The reason that immigration reform has failed is that extreme elements are stirring the pots of hatred. [They] are anti-Hispanic, very vocal and very vindictive with these politicians," Ivory said. "A moderate, thoughtful and quiet voice that comes from business is not heard over that extreme voice that comes from the far right wing."

Clark Ivory can kiss my lily white ass. I'm not a racist of any sort. BTW, if you want to make Mr. Ivory hear the "extreme voice that comes from the far right wing", Ivory Homes has a wesite that lists their corporate phone number as (801) 747-7000. Be polite, be gentle, but be direct and clear.

Well, there are millions of unskilled US citizens who are now in jail. Eventually, most of them will get out and need jobs.

Shall we send them around to apply?

Wrong. Anti-illegal immigration is bi-partison, if not more stringent in left labor/union circles.
