You're cute.

Yeah that's exactly what I said. Shouldn't you be in remedial reading classes right now?

Let me explain this in simpler language so even you can understand. Carlos Slim is the world's richest man. He's a Mexican national. He lent the New York Times half a billion so they could stay afloat. The Times runs many editorials that are pro-illegal. Roughly sixty percent of all illegals are Mexicans. Most of those people are high school drop outs who don't speak English and use our welfare system. The Times does Carlos Slim's bidding. The paper is pro-illegal.

But don't let the facts stand in the way of your false accustations of bigotry. It's not as if you have anything substantive to add to the debate. From now on I could just debate the way you do.

Rhymetime is a sexist. Rhymetime used the word hysteria so Rhymetime is a sexist. That's right Rhymetime is a sexist. A sexist, a sexist, a sexist. That's right a sexist!!!!! Because I said so.

How does this contradict what I said? You're just adding more evidence. Oh, and you're exposing the fact that when you say "illegal" you really mean "mexican".

Wow, you're sexist and not very bright.

When I write illegal I mean someone who is here in violation of our immigration laws. As eighty percent of all illegals are from Latin American and sixty percent are from Mexico that person is probably Mexican.

Your point? If the Mexican government does not want people to associate illegals with Mexicans, the Mexican government should stop demanding an inherent right to ship their poor people here.

Please tell us all how to talk about this issue. Are we supposed to avoid the word Mexican when writing about illegals? Oh I forgot. They're not illegals. They're Undocumented Saints Who Help Prop Up Racist Americans Too Lazy To Work.

Yeah.

"In fiscal year 2010, which ended September 30, the United States deported a record 392,000 illegal immigrants."

The Obama administration has been arresting so many illegals they are clogging up the deportation process

U.S. to postpone deportation of illegal immigrants without criminal records | The Raw Story
It’s much more than a temporary hold. They have no intentions of ever punishing these people for violating our laws. Ergo, they are being rewarded. What a great message to send to the world: Come to the USA illegally, and if you manage not to get caught committing crimes, the U.S. government will reward you by allowing you to remain in the country with impunity. Yes, that’s quite a magnet for more illegal immigration.

Yes, it makes sense to prioritize. But, that shouldn’t mean we ignore all others. They certainly shouldn’t be rewarded for violating our laws.

But, isn’t that what he’s doing by decriminalizing Dreamies? If they’re off-limits, he has essentially granted their DREAM Act amnesty.

It doesn’t have to include every illegal alien to qualify as an amnesty. They know they can’t grant another mass amnesty, so they will continue their piecemeal tactics. This way, as many as possible will be legalized without the involvement of Congress.

But, “the rest” will NEVER come. That’s their strategy. The only reason Obama is deporting record numbers, is to pave the way for “the rest” to be legalized.

You hit the nail on the head with your last paragraph in particular, Benicar.

Again, you're showing that you don't even know what racism is. It's not the fact that you're talking about mexicans. It's the disdain for them that shows in your words. And it's not just the ones that are here illegaly.
