Ah, RoysoldProggie. I have seen enough of it. The other day they went on about how Obama closed a million acres of land from oil drilling, and that was a big deal for them. That's OK to report such thing, but they intentionally left out the other half of the news which explains that the million acres was opened up for drilling next door. They also did not mention US will be the largest oil producer on the planet in five years. Why do you think they do that?

This has to be the dumbest right wing bed wetter fantasy ever. Why would an undocumented worker try to vote? It is not like you get some prize or are entered into a sweepstakes. Most undocumented workers will go to any length to avoid any type of contact with the government or any type of authority figure.

It is absurd to suggest that someone is going to risk prison time and deportation just to cast a single worthless vote.

You really need to get out of the Fox News bubble to clear your head of all the right wing nutjob stupidity rattling around in there.

Yes, some did. I lived on the border for a decade and saw it first hand. I moved because of the illegal problem and their violence.

I don't know how anyone can expect to tell racists to not be racist, and expect they might listen. Not going to happen. Carry that further, if FOX were to tell their viewers not to be racist, how long til they have very few viewers?

Well, there is no trying to get progressives to understand about their racism.

Are we talking about Hispanic American voters or illegal immigrants of Hispanic descent? These aren't the same thing at all. When you say over 10 million of them, who is the "them"? The part where Fox news, and apparently you as well, are trying to put them as one and the same is the crazy part.
