The U.S. population grew by 2.8 million in the past year and is edging toward 300 million, a threshold that should be reached within four years.

The South and West added the most people in the year that ended July 1, and Nevada was the fastest-growing state for the 17th consecutive year, according to Census Bureau estimates Thursday.

Immigration and a high birth rate among Hispanics...

Immigration? No "illegal" in front of that word? Oh that`s right, it`s in vogue to ignore that word today.

[Happy2BMe]

"Immigration and a high birth rate among Hispanics -- now the nation's largest minority group -- helped fuel the increase."

We of a certainty have been duped. Does anybody notice a pattern here. .

Q: Why does the United States Government permit wholesale illegal Mexican immigration?

A: For the workers.

Q: Why does the United States Government need foreign workers (not just Mexicans)?

A: It does not have enough labor force to meet the service sector and other blue collar work sector demands and growth within it's economy.

Q: Why does the United States Government not have enough workers to meet economic demand?

A: Over TWENTY MILLION AMERICAN WORKERS HAVE BEEN ABORTED OVER THE PAST TWENTY YEARS.

Q: If over twenty million American workers have been aborted over the past twenty years, who is going to pay for (read: generate taxes) the Social Security of the baby-boomer generation (now reaching critical mass)?

A: Mexican workers.

Any questions?

I believe that was Fritz Hollings remark.

[gcruse]

No surprise to me. I can't imagine voluntarily living in the NorthEast. Been there, got out.

Washington, D.C., lost almost 5,800 people or about 1 percent of its population of around 563,000.

That's just the people who were murdered and the bodies never found.

Can you imagine if we have another baby boom? We will have more then 300 million. Also, if abortion was not performed we would have more than 300 million people now. Marry Christmas to you all.

That's not the whole of it, Consider how many fewer children have been born since the introduction of the pill.

[Az Joe]

Most of the growth is in states that Bush won in 2000.

[winker]

If all the illegal criminal border jumpers were deported the population would probably be around 100 million give or take a few!

[Old Professer]

It's no wonder, they're busing them in here already pregnant.

[Green Knight]

That's what I was going to point out. Seems that the blue states are aborting themselves out of existence, while the red states continue to grow.

[Old Professer]

At least they would be citizens.

[Old Professer]

???????????? Since when? California is like three states all by itself.

[fishbabe]

i figured it was the number of whites who got out before they were murdered,raped,or robbed by the citizens of wash d.c.,who never seem to work,or take care of their 12 kids,or go to school......

[Ramius]

Wow... I've never seen somebody try to make a tie-in between abortion and illegal immigration before.

Remarkable.

[Happy2BMe]

Remarkable is not the word for it.

Think about it - Hispanics are one of the most prolific races on earth.

Americans have killed in the past twenty years almost as many Mexicans as have entered America.

It adds up.

[RLK]

I liked it better when it was 132,000,000.

Bush has picked up a net of 7 electoral votes. If he wins just the same states again he comes out with 278 E.V.s.
