Illegal is the operative word! I don’t care if they have come here and turned into priests! They are illegal and will continue to be illegal every day they are in this country. The progressive establishment can utilize a plethora of terms, however, illegal is illegal every day of the week. We must start somewhere and it must begin with enforcement of the laws we have. As citizens, we are not allowed to pick and choose what laws we follow, and we are not allowed to pick and choose what taxes we pay. The Justice Department must enforce all the laws, including the Logan Act, which Nancy Pelosi could be prosecuted under.

About damned time.

ICE should have hung out at the big protest march yesterday. And had a fleet of prison busses to haul away the illegal bastards.

The arrogance of these criminals is galling!

[CBart95]

Think for one second what the toll would be if our officials at all levels merely enforced the existing immigration laws that are now on the books.

Before we vote anybody in or out of office, how about making the bastards do their jobs first?

From the top down!

[Bigg Red]

Boy, Geraldo had better not hear about this, or that carotid artery will surely burst this time.

Larry Carig, RINO-Idaho, is probably fuming mad today.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

As is the number one advocate for these ILLAGALS in American government, george w bush.

Critics say the campaign against fugitive illegal immigrants ensnares many hard-working people who are in the country illegally but do not pose a danger.

If they're working, they're likely using a citizens SS #. For those whose identities are stolen, they do pose a danger and commit a felony. If they're using a TIN (taxpayer ID#) they'll pay a lot less in taxes than they get back on earned income credit. Using our tax dollars in this manner is a danger as well.

[freekitty]

I agree. There is no reason in the world to send these people back to their own country and I mean all of the illegals.

[EGPWS]

Illegal is the operative word!

To a hard core liberal like "J"eraldo "illegal" isn't a word, it's slang.

[ClaireSolt]

Also, they probably drive illegally without license or insurance.

Yea, well I don't pose a threat by carrying a firearm but I still have to get a permit.

[wku man]

No doubt.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

[ca centered]

It’s a nice number of ilegals picked up if your happy with one days worth of invaders.

Those critics can kiss my elbow.
Let them send checks for the support of the illegals so my taxes won't be used to support them.

Illegal is illegal and undesireable, danger or not.

"They're trying to sell it as something where they target (criminals) but it's become part of a larger dragnet," said Pedro Rios, director of the American Friends Service Committee's office in San Diego.

Guess what bone head? If they're in the country illegally, they ARE criminals. Just what don't you get about this concept?

[Southack]

"As is the number one advocate for these ILLAGALS in American government, george w bush."

You are deranged.

President Bush *formed* ICE, fired two federal prosecutors for not prosecuting illegals (ooooh, the big "Attorney-gate scandal"), and this is a news story about Bush's efforts resulting in 18,000 arrests...yet you are so *deranged* that you hold up President Bush as a proponent of the very thing for which he's arresting thousands.

Look, spare me the "it's not enough" and "too little, too late" clap-trap. You're just unappeasable.

You should be banned as a left-wing troll.

Look Pedro, being here illegally is a crime in itself. Some of us don't care how "hard working" anyone is if they have entered illegally.

Boo-Fricken-Hoo.
