Obviously it's political . . . and the media is the biggest political tool.
If you tune in to Fox News, you'll hear more anti-alien stories and on MSNBC, it's more pro, bleeding heart, come one, come all.
And yeah, the media LOVES to show the poor, nice and harmless, hard-working aliens . . . and of course, their kids . . . who are just here for a better life.
It's easier for millions of them to come to a more organized and established nation, take advantage of its resources and then trash it out and muck it up than it is to band together and straighten out their own piece of crap country.
It is HIGH TIME that this issue NOT be politicized - it isn't about being a Democrat or Republican . . . IT IS ABOUT THE LAW AND ETHICS.
