I can’t help noting what to most sentient people is obvious, to wit: Abortion is a death penalty imposed on a totally innocent human being by the personal choice of another person, not being accused of any crime and denied access to a court of law. Perpetrators of capital crimes have access to every civil right protection afforded by our judicial system, including opportunities for virtually endless appeals, before they can be executed. Moreover, such felons are not executed by being sliced up and dismembered, limb by limb.

We native born Virginians had illegal immigrant problems in Manassas back in 1861 and 1862. With a little help from our friends we were able to expell them all for a time.

I'm afraid history will repeat itself to expel the invaders from the whole country. This is the only way, especially with the choices we're facing in the '08 election!

Imagine how successful we're going to be, trying to stop the next amnesty bill with a dumbo Congress and President or the traitor-in-chief, McPain!

>>>>>>In other areas, like construction, illegals are crowding out native-born workers.

I’ve actually run the numbers.

In the late 70’s myself and my college pals were making $6/hr or so as general laborers. One year I happened upon a federal contract (DC MetroRail) and got $8/hr.

By any common measure such as the inflation rate or the CPI, that $6 to $8 and hour would now be $22 to $28 an hour.

Anecdotally I hear that illegals (who have completely taken over all unskilled labor jobs are making $12 to $15 an hour.

So illegals have underbid American workers by about 50 percent since the late 1970’s.
