If you ever look at the illegal alien sob story articles where comments are allowed, you will see that the vast majority aren't falling for these sob stories. Yeah, they talk the talk but when it's time to vote, will they walk the walk? Or will they mindlessly re-elect incumbents who are all for open borders and amnesty?

To see which reps and senators are the worst of the worst when it comes to pandering to illegals, take a look at this website:

www.betterimmigration.com

Exactly you worded it better then I did. Your so right though. It does not fit the dumb ass lamestream media agenda. Not the news worthy story, they want to run with. This is so damn sad, and something has got to give. Illegal sob story, cry me a river. What about all the American sob stories out there, and they are good and plenty aslo.

Can this Country that is so unsettled, and unstable, really afford to have open borders. Think about this long and hard, before casting that vote of yours. Because we all suffer with the wrong choice.

I would like to see the lamestream media, on our borders for about a week straight. See what they say after that. If after that week, they feel the same way, they need their heads examined.

Every criminal seems to have a sob story to explain their crime and why they deserve special consideration. Illegals are no different. If anything illegals are have the worst entitlement mentality of all. They deserve no consideration and no free pass. Millions have entered legally, why should we grant them anything but a deportation order?

And there are many Republicans for Amnesty. I don't consider this a liberal/conservative issue but an American one.

Easy-peasy.
Agreed and why are white skin Hispanics called "people of color" but brown skin anglo whites of 100 percent Italian family ain't?

That's directed to the "POC" nonsense, NOT what you're saying there, armory.

Uh; many common sense people who call themselves "liberal" are really mild "conservatives" by the rules on 2014.

Because the US government, in all it's great wisdom, over time has assigned people to different groups based on an area of the globe, a language, or an assummed shared culture. A good example is when someone identifies themself as Asian. My first resonse is "Where?" You could be Japanese, Chinese(55 different ethnic groups alone), Filipino, or perhaps Indonesian? It's like saying "North American" It means almost nothing without a qualifier.

Personally, I would identify as an "American" but that could mean Canada, Mexico, or any South or Central American country

These tear jerker stories are designed to do one thing and that is to pull at our heart strings and soften our resolve in regard to illegals. For every tear jerker story there are at least a dozen horror stories where a legal citizen has been murdered, had the ID stolen, raped, or harmed in another manner by an illegal.
A real tear jerker story is the story of Obama's aunt abusing the generosity of our country.

The media are hellbent on giving us the most dramatic illegal immigration perils that they can find.
Deport in 72 hours if the Illegal cannot provide docs. If he refused to cooperate with Law Enforcement , they are automatically on a black list and will never gain access.

Actually the term Americans has always been understood that you are a U.S. citizen.

Worse, many immigrants come here for the medical benefits. This guys son with cerebral palsy on disability for life with extensive deductions available to his parents as well.
