Strange, I just finished letters to my US Senators (TX) when I found this. What are the odds I will get a reply, positive or not? I don't know how to get their attention in Washington. There is a building anger about the land they don't want to hear it.

Very little immigration is of skilled personnel. Besides, it is precisely because of advances in global communications that we do not have to allow people to move to the U.S. to take advantage of their talents and benefit from their contributions.

We do not need skilled people. We are going to be a service based economy, don't you remember?

I wrote letters several days ago...very, very vehement letters. No reaction whatsoever. While this so-called "Freedom Ride" is going on, no reaction whatsoever. What does that tell me? That they JUST DON'T CARE. And that they really are "Electing A New People." Meanwhile the Republicans continue to send me requests for money disguised as some sort of a poll or (today) a census and I send them back with all sorts of protests written all over them and no money. As long as our government refuses to protect us I'm not going to pay income taxes and I'm certainly not going to give some corrupt political party money.

Don't give up. One of the very popular tactics of the left is to try to make people who disagree with what they are doing think they are the only ones who have complained. I can't tell you how many times I've been told, "you're the only one who's complained" only to find out neighbors and acquaintances have also been complaining.

What was it that Churchill said to rally Britain to fight for its life in WWII?

"Never, never, never, never give up"

I wrote to GWB after Officer Tony Zeppetella was murdered by a deported illegal ex-con, I put a lot of time and thought into it-two months later I get a letter postmarked Crawford Ranch, I open it.......a damn form letter. As usual.

Ah EW your on top of things today. I am so burnt!

This is a good place for my after action counter protest report, one word ARGH!

Should have known it would be rough, our train was delayed for 30 min. going down there! Massive trouble by O'Hare -shrug-

We get there at 10AM and must be already 1,000 of them. I was so lucky that the first speaker I heard was Guitierrez, the troublemaking aldercritter!

The group I met up with was already setup, only a handful at first. We were behind fenced barriers across from the rally. We had screaming meemies that looked like gangbangers and then actual bandito's no kidding! Had hoods on and masks pulled up to their eyes!

Police presence was surprisingly minimal!

So those banditos keep screaming obscentities and threats at us and really singled out my 16 yr old, Kinetic, for some reason and she was simply holding an American flag!

Lemme tellya, they were just coming with signs like cockroaches! They were actually pretty civil and of course loud! Then a speaker gets up who was on the March with MLK!
And had this snappy speech about how this is just like that! I wanted to vomit.

We did have gorgeous weather here today and many pictures were taken of my poster. I wore jeans with stars all over them,an cap with American buttons, a glittered USA tanktop and had rwb stripes on my eyelids and 3 tears falling down my left eye in rwb.

Soon a few more folx came, totaling about a dozen and thats when I began to wonder about the group. Their haircuts, their style, their posters. Turns out we are smack in the middle of a damn white supremacist group!!!
Hateful towards everyone including FR!

New we were in trouble within five minutes when the Feds were taking their pictures and I told my daughter Great, been an honest citizen all my life and bam! Now I'm in the Fed database!

So we got the hell outta there! Went by some cops for a bit who I explained our situation to. I said what is my choice here, hmmmmmmm, Mexican or White racists (both were black ;) and we had alot of great laughs!

But I am disappointed for I had index cards of talking points and there was much media coverage at the Fed Bldg.
And most of the time the speaker's spoke Spanish.

I'll tellya Freeper's it broke my heart to listen to all their demands and see their solidarity, Our fight is cut out for us!

Go Cubbies ;)

We do not need skilled people. We are going to be a service based economy, don't you remember?

Kind of shoots in the ass the ill-conceived "Leave No Child Behind"'s reason for being. For if eleven million plus socially stunted, illiterate, illegal aliens from Mexico, many of whom can't speak the king's English, are finding good paying gigs in the US, certainly Drop-Out David can get a job laying roofing tiles too.

I wonder how many illegals would stay employed if they had to play by the same rules as US workers? Do you think an illegal would sue over an OSHA violation, or declare "sexual harrasment", or deliberately stuff their hand in a deep fryer to get a worker's compensation check?

"...proportion of the foreign born in the population"???

What's the point of a question like that?

Just how many people do you believe the U.S. can accommodate? Wouldn't you agree there are too many here already?

BTTT!

Did the Feds take pictures of the illegal aliens or just the counter-protesters?

are people actually dumb enough to do this?

I had a friend who managed a McDonalds. He told me that this was one of many stupid things his employees would do to get out of work.
