I should clarify that-----"declare war" as in STOP paying for the nuclear umbrella the US provides Mexico for free.

STOP all foreign aid to Mexico and SA.

STOP the decimation of the US economy by allowing $50 Billion to be wired back to Mexico and SA from the US (which is actually money laundering-----illegal proceeds from drug deals, US tax dollars stolen w/ fraudulent forged documents, using multiple stolen ID's and several SS nos.

Just watched the 'post Oprah' local news...

Lots of talk about "American and Mexican flags" and doing "something for their country" (snicker) but no mention that the televised flag count ran about 1 (us) to 3 (them) to 12 or more red flags with Che's picture on them.

On a positive note, Mayor Villiagarosa (last year's 'El Pachuco') climbed on a different stage to explain why he didn't have to attend every march that comes along.

As an immigrant, I have not had one moment of fear of deportation in all the 37 years I have lived in America...

You have a lot of nerve obeying the law! Next year you need to be in Chicago with your sign!

I still cannot believe what I saw in an upscale supermarket the other day.

Three Mexicans 4’ tall and 4’ around the waist-——dressed exactly like the banditos in Treasure of Sierra Madre.

They were pushing a carriage almost filled with what looked like large pork roasts (guess they gonna have El Barbaqua).

This was in an upscale supermarket where homes sell for a million dollars.

Scary.

If they would build the darn fence that has been authorized and appropriations made to start, there might be a future in ‘declaring war on Mexico’. But as is, we’d lose in a slow bleed as the democraps enroll the illegals for ‘social benefits’. When Teddy the drunk Kennedy recanted his agreement to Reagan to close the border, the handwriting was on the wall for democraps to protect their new source of dependant voters. It has become so bad and so blatant that I would even agree to amnesty for those with a US born child, if the fence with troops were put in place!

LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa--Hillary's 2008 National Hispanic co-chair---and Bill Clinton.

"Psst! Antonio. Hillary has me on a tight leash---I hafta elbow her volunteers
just to get a cheap feel. How about fixing me up with hot latina babes for a
threesome?"

"Ai dunno, Beeley. Latinas mad Heelary dun wanna geeve us no driver's license.
Ai dun't theenk hot mamasitas wanna tango wit chu undah da sheets, enymore,
Beeley." But chu can still have da name of my denteesta."

HERE'S WHAT THEY SAY IN LATINOLAND FLORIDA:

OUR OPINION: NO OFFICIAL SHOULD HAVE SUCH POWER TO IGNORE US LAW
Miami Herald | Apr. 30, 2008 | Staff
FR Posted on 04/30/2008 5:15:30 AM PDT by fweingart

In the poem, Mending Wall, Robert Frost questions whether ''Good fences make good neighbors.'' In the Department of Homeland Security's push to complete a 670-mile fence along the Mexican border, it's bullying and intrusiveness that are making us a bad neighbor. By disregarding more than 30 U.S. laws, not to mention common sense, DHS will damage the environment and violate property rights in the region. Already the fence has raised hackles among U.S. residents and Mexicans along the border. And it has drawn deserved constitutional challenges. And for what? There are signs that, no matter how high and thick the wall, determined immigrants will find the means to breach it.

===============================================

News reports say illegal invaders armed with torches, hacksaws, ladders and even bungee cords are making it around a section of the US border fence hailed as the most efficient way to stop them.

Shucks, and here we thought illegal aliens were all harmless farmers violating our borders for a better life---to take jobs Americans won't do---flipping hamburgers and picking lettuce. (/sarc)

>”It’s going to help my family and friends,” Orozzo said of the effort. He carried a preprinted sign which read ‘Stop raids and deportations that separate families’ in both Spanish and English.<

Don’t look now, Orozzo, but the USA is still a sovereign nation. The government might not think so any longer, but the American people certainly do!

If you’re from Mexico, North Korea, the Middle East, or China - stay home! Sneaking illegally across our borders separates you from your families, not raids and deportations.

If you want to live here as Americans, come the legal way. Otherwise, go away, Jose!

"We're marching to end the raids and the deportations, but we're also marching for health care and education and good jobs," she said."

Your reasoning is idiotic, MHG.

The Japanese were brilliant in their taking our technology (that we gave them after the war) and using it against us. Mexicans haven’t that genius.

Hey MHG or MGH or whatever your call letters are,

Quit sounding so “RINO”-like! Quit making it a “Demorat bad, RINO good” argument...it won’t wash. Hillary is going to go right as soon as she wins the nomination—you watch! She’ll come out against amnesty in a lurch to the right to capture disheartened conservatives and Indies who can’t stomach voting for McAmnesty. It will be a HUGE political calculation. She can’t do it now or she’ll lose the support to beat Obama. She can distance herself and look “patriotic” compared to the sell-out McLame if she does this.

But, even if she doesn’t pull this move, you’re not going to convince enough conservatives to vote for McOldman. Our only chance is to concentrate on the House, bringing in conservatives to knock out Pelosi and the Dems.

There were different perspectives in my post. Apparently you couldn't stop long enough to see them: with Japan, when we won against them we allowed them to become our major competititon and for decades they were beating us at capitalism; with Germany, when we won we placed a huge contingency of troops there as a buffer to the Soviets; if we beat Mexico, what will we gain except another arm of the welfare state?

You might want to slow down and read more thoroughly before opening that trap and inserting foot. ... BTW, the 'are you nuts' was a 'tongue in cheek' comment, as Liz understood but you apparently missed.

Called both of our senators (and congressman) this morning and raised hell about Washington's continuing failure to enforce our immigration laws which, in turn, encourages the brazen demonstrations by illegal aliens, cluttering our cities and streets, disrupting traffic and interfering with the normal course of business.

This will, of course, fall on the usual deaf ears in Washington. In California, both of our moonbat senators are heavily pro-illegal alien and ardent latino ass-kissers.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm ready to support the use of deadly force to protect the borders, security and sovereignty of the United States.

America is the “bread basket of the world” in our capacity to supply world markets-—what happens here affects the world.

Nice try on your part.

Might be best to emphasize to our cockeyed legislators that anti-illegal is a consensus issue----has been proved time and again that anti-illegal unites all segments of the political spectrum. Reason why federal immigration bills have failed more than once.

CASE IN POINT: The Dim attempt by ex-Gov Spitzer to license illegals bombed bigtime and brought pro-licensing Hillary down with it----the begining of the end of her "inevitability" strategy.

The proliferation of state anti-illgal laws is also a very positive sign that Americans are united on this.
