WE SHOULD BE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION (lest we forget)

Oddly enough, of all the myriad issues the Obama administration has tirelessly -- and sometimes tiresomely -- addressed, it has been utterly silent over the highly emotional one of immigration. Not a mention of the fact that, despite some runaway returnees to Mexico from this bad economy, there remain millions of illegals living off-the-grid lives in America. Over the years, generally 80 percent of Americans polled have said they want immigration reform, yet not a word from the president on that issue. Even more silence from Congress.

So I went recently to the 30th annual meeting of the major immigration control group, the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), to see what was the thinking in this representative group, and I found two things: (1) They are more convinced than ever that they represent the feelings of the masses of the American people for immigration control and against illegal immigration. But (2) they are deeply afraid that the White House, along with Congress, is at any time ready to push through another amnesty for the 13 to 20 million illegals now already in the country.

GG reminds us again of the threat to this country posed by illegals and our not being vigilant.

Not a good time to close the borders. Americans are going to need a way to escape in the near future.

These commie pukes never will do anything about it. THEY WANT THE VOTES!!!!!
Lesbo Janet is taking border patrol troops off the Mexican border and moving them the the Canadian border.
And Mr Bush ain’t off the hook either—he did zilch about the problem.
In 25 to 50 years this country will be Mexican and Muslim. Thank God I won’t be here to see my beloved country lost.

U.S. Ambassador comments on immigration reform

Carlos Pascual, U.S. Ambassador to Mexico, said that the migratory reform process in the United States is programmed for the early part of 2010. During a short visit to Tijuana, Baja California, the ambassador said that both the U.S. Senate and the House have a representative at the White House to deal with this issue. He added that the problems related to health care must first be solved before this reform may be carried out. He pointed out that first it is necessary to control the enormous health care costs, 16% of the U.S. GDP, and thereafter consider making them wider, which ties us into the issue of migration reform.
