Yep, the look the other way for almost all day to day infractions.

Is it higher than our native born population? Proof, please.



Proof, please.




We do.



Proof, please.
Now you are demanding proof? Tell ya what, there is a whole sub forum on it. You can probably spend weeks just reading to get the information you need.


This is needless arguing. The DREAMIES will have to go back to the drawing board. IT FAILED.

3. Raised the deficit by $40 billion to fund relief efforts.

4. Passed an extension of unemployment insurance () and excelerated depreciation rates for corporate investments. The revenue loss from those was projected to be $51 billion in just 2002.

5. Set aside $32.8 billion of stand-by credit for Uruguay and Brazil.

6. Set aside $15 billion for the airlines.

7. Provided $21.7 billion in aid to New York City.

And this is just a partial list.

I don't have to justify any of the above but the federal government helps states and citizens when neccessary. The 9/11 responders are already being helped as I stated before.

Idaho?

It would have to be some place far from the border unlike San Diego.

Completely not true. Mexico has a public school system and it has colleges and universities. So do all the Latin American nations. And in the case of Mexico, it is second only to the USA in obesity rates. People in Mexico are definitely not starving to death.

And yes kids in Mexico have schools.

They also have the 14th largest economy in the world so what's the problem? Their corrupt government may just have somethuing to do with it........

Time to gas up the planes and start the mass deportation of the invading criminals.

I can see him getting Holder working on how they can protect the criminals as the majority want them all deported.

Keep an eye on Obama, he will find a way to keep them here one way or another.
