  2. Sorry, not my quote from this thread you attributed to me.

    But who do you think the USA belongs to if not its citizens?

    Illegals had a "day without a mexican" protest once and they really stuck to their guns and din't go to work. I noticed on my commute that we had no assholes on the freeway at all. Usually there was a guy going up the hov lane holding the speed down then speeding up when the passing lane opened up, usually if my Camaro was really detailed great, nice and shiny, assholes all along the way would swerve out of their lane to make it miserable for me, usually guys gave me dirty looks and ran the stop signs right in front of me, usually traffic was going about 45 mph, usually there were piece of shit overheated cars all along the way...

    = H E R D wrath = bearmarket sentiment

    BEARmarket 101 Theory and Practice:

    “Major bear markets are accompanied by a reduction in the size of people’s unit of allegiance, the group that they consider to be like themselves. At the peak, it’s all ‘we’; everyone is a potential friend. At a bottom it’s all ‘they’; everyone is a potential enemy. When times are good, tolerance is greater and boundaries weaker. When times are bad, intolerance for differences grows, and people build walls and fences to shut out those perceived to be different. Ultimately, persecution and war result.”

    ---------------------------------


    And for the record I voted "NO"

    In my book, ALL are welcome to America. As for illegals, if you can get in buddy, best of luck and congrats - you earned it. Give it your best shot. You've come to the right place.

    And if it was you and your family that were running across the 405/5 at 3 a.m. and were shocked to see the car slow down and turn off the headlights and no Immig. officers come out, , yeah, that was me. Glad to help you make a new life.

    OBAMA COURTS LATINOS BY SUING ARIZONA
    By DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN


    "Why is President Obama suing to invalidate the Arizona law on illegal immigration? Why is he incurring the enmity of even his own Democratic Congressmen from the Phoenix and Tucson areas by trying to kill a law that two-thirds of Arizona and a similar proportion of America as a whole supports?

    The answer: It is a desperate, last ditch attempt to rebuild his sagging popularity with America's Hispanic voters.

    Furious at Obama for failing to keep his election year promise to promote comprehensive immigration reform when he had a super-majority at his disposal, they are deserting the president and his party in droves. Unemployment, a sagging economy, and their sharp disagreement with Obama over social issues don't help the president's cause any.

    So Obama has seized on the Arizona immigration law as a symbolic target, hoping to accomplish in a lawsuit the political task of rebuilding his base.

    Remember that in 2008, Obama won precisely the same share of the white vote that Kerry won in 2004. There was a shift among whites as the Obama won more young whites and lost more older ones, but the white vote ratios as a whole remained constant. His entire margin of victory was based on two factors:

    a) The African-American vote rose from 11% of the total in 2004 to 14% in 2008 and virtually all voted for Obama; and

    b) Latinos, who had backed Kerry by only 10 points, supported Obama by fifty points.

    For Obama to have a shot at keeping Democrats in control of Congress, he must replicate the enthusiasm of 2008 among minorities. But his Hispanic flank is definitely weakened. Hence the lawsuit to shore it up.

    The answer on immigration reform is to adopt a three part program to dry up the jobs that attract illegal migrants in the first place. When there are no jobs, they will not come and those who are here will go back home without deportations or roundups.

    We need to:

    1. Strengthen penalties and enforcement of laws barring people and companies from hiring illegal immigrants. Those who do so should face prison time.

    2. We need a fool proof national bio-metric ID card so employers can tell who is legal and who is not.

    3. We should implement a broad guest worker program to bring upscale and manual workers into the US to fill our labor force needs. They must get at least the minimum wage and have health benefits. But, when the job is over, they must go home.

    Democrats won't embrace this program because the unions won't let them and because they want illegals to stay here and become Democratic voters. Republican agri-businesses won't go for it because they want to exploit illegal workers with low pay and bad work conditions.

    But this is the solution. Trying to seal the border is good rhetoric but is a hopeless task. Drying up the jobs that bring illegal immigrants here is something we can and must do."

  10. We were once a nation of proud immigrants but have become a home for cockroaches and leaches.

    When my great grandparents came here they were proud to be here.
    They learned the language of this great new country that had welcomed them in so they could build a new life for their family.
    They spoke their native language at home but stressed that English was their new language of choice.
    The required their children to speak English and to respect their elders and neighbors.
    They instilled a great work ethic onto their children to help make this new country stronger and more cohesive.

    These are not the goals for the majority of the new illegal immigrants. They simply want a free ride and a handout.
