Two things:

One, who gives a rat’s rear end what a bunch of communists think about our laws?

Two, if Arizona was purchased by the U.S. from Mexico, then it wasn’t theft; it was a legal transaction. These ... humans are just ticked off that AMERICANS made Arizona into a thriving territory, instead of the third-world hellhole they would have turned it into!

If we ever get a real president again, we need to do a reverse Murial boatlift times 10.

Currently, it seems to me that our liberal/communist government has conceded that an area about 200 miles north of our 1848 border is now co-owed by us and our southern neighbor. In a few years, they plan to concede that that area is de facto part of Mexico. Then they can apologize and make reparations.

Cuba is nobody to talk: http://babalublog.com/2010/05/illegal-in-your-own-country/

Plus, I would think these Communist would be cheering for the US to close its borders. After all, enforcing its borders would be prevent these illegals from “ever suffering from the evil capitalist system of the US.”

One problem is those ‘banana republics’ have an equal vote to ours in the OAS...who is pushing for elimination of borders. You can bet the Obama regime will side with them.

Unrestricted migration to be proposed- Open Western Hemisphere borders proposed
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2453670/posts

El Universo (Guayaquil,Ecuador) 2/15/10

Open Western Hemisphere borders proposed

The Ecuadorian government will ask the Organization of American States (OAS) to promote the free movement of people within the continent in order to curb the deportation of immigrants who are in an “irregular condition” [Read: illegal].

Hernan Holguin, sub-secretary of the Ecuadorian national department that oversees migrant issues, indicated that the matter will be presented before the OAS as “a matter of human rights” and to stop the deportation of “irregular immigrants.” Holguin expressed the opinion that humanity is advancing toward a “universal citizenship” and that world globalization is not centered only in the movement of merchandise, but also in people, for which reason it is a right for emigrants to come and go in other countries as they wish.

The proposal has to do with urging “an integrated migrant policy with full respect for human rights in the framework of human mobility,” he said. Holguin emphasized that the process of returning to one’s country of origin should be “orderly, planned and supported” in order to avoid situations in which the undocumented immigrant might be arrested for a minor infraction and be deported, thus destroying his life’s future plans. He pointed out that in order to confront this matter, his country, for example, has subscribed to a “migratory agreement” with Peru that is similar to another established by Mexico. Ecuador estimates that it has one-fifth of its population in migratory status, mostly in the US, Spain and Italy, brought on by an economic crisis in the country in 1999 and considered the worst in its national history.
