This is so true!!! N/C

[Doc]

OK. I THINK I GET IT



Let me see if I understand all this....



IF YOU CROSS THE NORTH KOREAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET 12 YEARS HARD LABOR.



IF YOU CROSS THE IRANIAN BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU ARE DETAINED INDEFINITELY.



IF YOU CROSS THE AFGHAN BORDER, YOU GET SHOT.



IF YOU CROSS THE TURKEY BORDER ILLEGALLY, YOU SPEND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE IN PRISON!



BUT, IF YOU CROSS THE U.S. BORDER ILLEGALLY YOU GET:



    A DRIVERS LICENSE



    A SOCIAL SECURITY CARD



    WELFARE



    FOOD STAMPS



    AND, FREE HEALTH CARE?



Oh well sure.  That makes perfect sense.

Only if you come in from the south

If you try to get in from your friends in the north you get sent home

I cant blame all this on O bama,Bush was sleeping with the mexican pres. and Putin.There hasnt been a president or congress with balls enough to really address illegal immigration.if you say anything  your a racist.Iam thankful i LIVE in rural america.rusty

There hasnt been a president or congress with balls enough to really address illegal immigration.

look up eisenhower.  pretty clear it's not that hard.  no dual citizenship.  no anchor babies.  we let in 700,000+ legal immigrants every year.  so room isn't the problem.  breaking the law is, which all we ever do is make more laws and not enforce the ones we have which is why i don't buy that we need new laws.  ie cell phone and driving.  if you are driving distracted, there is a law for it, but for some reason, we have to respond to the loud people on both sides.

Oh Mr. Doc,  my shorty friend,

You forgot a few other fringe benefits.....free school lunches, ESL programs, mentoring programs, free immunizations, free birth control, rent control houses, energy assistance programs.

We take better care of them than we do our own elderly population.

I will stick my neck out here, put I am in favor of a nice brick building at the border that does issue REAL ID's so that their PAYROLL TAXES can pay for these programs instead of just us!

JMHO

knabe, didnt go that far back.things were lot different back then,we were all proud to be americans.I think it changed  and this is my opinion with Carter and the Iran debockle.Illegal immigration has always been there and happened as far as I can remember,I am 50.I Tthink the past 10 years we have had a increase.The hispanic vote it is very important to these politicians and they dont want to stir the pot.rusty

The hispanic vote it is very important to these politicians and they dont want to stir the pot.rusty

when a racial vote becomes more important than an american vote of any group, THAT is worth stirring the pot for.

my dad was interviewed the other day and was asked what his experience as a "danish" american was.

he got upset and rejected the premise and stated he was an AMERICAN.  if he had to "label" himself, it would be rural american rather than any STUPID hyphenated something before american lack of american allegiance label.

there must be NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO compromise on illegal immigration.

yes, it is always there, but if you raise the risks for both the illegal and the employer, their numbers WILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL go down.

There is absolutely no reason to "live in the shadows".  there is a line.  people need to get in it, or the norm WILL be illegal and their will be no reason for any law.


more from hasan.

The Washington Post reported Tuesday that Hasan gave a PowerPoint presentation to fellow Army doctors in 2007 in which he said, "It's getting harder and harder for Muslims in the service to morally justify being in a military that seems constantly engaged against fellow Muslims." He recommended that Muslim soldiers be given the option of being released from the military as conscientious objectors to decrease what he called "adverse events." Under "comments," he wrote, "We love death more than you love life."

perhaps some should be released from america.

"We love death more than you love life."

perhaps some should be released from america.

That's the thing that a lot of people just don't grasp. That's the reason why they don't feel bad when they kill a bunch of innocent people. IMO that's why we shouldn't be in Afghanistan, we are not committed . They are fighting to defend their homelands & their beliefs. We won't ever give our soldiers the personnel they need to win , so why even go over there . I've said this before & I'll say it again. We are the only country that fights with morals & is worried about who we will offend & when you are fighting against someone who says & BELIEVES a statement like above , then it's tough. 
Thank You to all our veterans , past & present!!!!!! <hero>
