^^^.

If he was really enforcing the law, maybe my county would finally be back to normal and not have such a big problem.


Not to mention most liberals where I grew up don't even live near where are the illegals are. They're also creating an achievement gap in the county's top school systems.

Okay... Well, Democrats fail on the economic issue for the poor. Only 30% of those born poor ever make it up to middle class. And civil liberties? Obama is worse than Bush.
ACLU: Obama Worse Than Bush On Civil Liberty Issues | WBNS

So, remind me again why they vote for a party that isn't doing anything for them other than getting them hooked on government handouts.

Many anglo white voters stayed HOME and did NOT vote at all because they hated Obama AND Romney. If it had been another Repub running, IMHO Obama would've been history in 2012.

Like I said: I ain't real concerned about Hispanic Dem people since very few even can vote.

Legalizing illegals IS a losing issue. Take heed.
What about all those businesses that will be forced to close? You know, the same ones that can't survive a minimum wage hike?

Uh; what does that have to do with ILLEGAL aliens? Maybe there'd be less need for a high minimum wage if our low wage people didn't have to compete with illegals. Sheesh!

It doesn't. I meant that anyone who wants the law enforced is accused of being racist.

Hispanics have a significantly higher rate of abortion than do whites. And their high illegitimacy rate makes you wonder how Catholic they really are. Most hispanics vote for pro-abortion candidates.

The DWL IE disingenuous white liberal can only be disingenuous via distance from the issue either psychically or financially.

Border issues/Illegal Immigration
Cap and Trade and Fracking
Gun Control

All issues they are removed from and can afford to live above the Consequences of their views..

"If they vote for some leftist who will blocking drilling and fracking, which will raise gas prices by a dollar, it wont effect me I make 150,000$ a year."


"I support a ban self defense rifles, that's fine I can hire armed security",

"I support section 8 house because I live in a gated community".

"I support open borders because I am lawyer and it wont really affect me, who cares about the "subjects".

leftist vote on emotion and feelings, nothing more.

I actually would get a kick out of seeing the Senate go Republican and then Democrats can obstruct every GOP initiative and then run in 2016 on the Senate not getting anything done since the GOP took control.
Harry Reid is the obstructionist . He will not even bring house bills up for a vote. Why is he scared of bringing them up for votes ?

They'll employ the multitude of other low-skilled workers looking for a job. Otherwise known as U.S. citizens.
