And don't call the First Lady a "witch", show at least a bit of respect. Every knows that calling a woman a "witch" is an immature, childish way to say "b*tch" and get away with it. That's really low.
Hmmm. LEGAL immigrants having to listen to her promote what amounts to amnesty. Yes, its a slap in the face. These people followed our rule of law. ILLEGALS broke our law and will get rewarded for it. How is that not offensive?

Legal immigrants followed the rules, yes, but they still face a lot of hardship. I'm sure they would appreciate if the system was made easier for them as well.

And remember, people don't live in vacuums - legal immigrants have various family back home. Family members that they desperately miss, but can't get into the states anytime soon.

We're not a hotel. These people made a choice to want to come here. It should be difficult. We're America. If they can make it a tad bit simpler, fine. But first and foremost, the border needs to be dealt with. No more promises of we will do it this time after amnesty. We tried that.

As for their family back home.....sorry? We can't except everyone. We have plenty of our own poor and uneducated to deal with off tax payers money. This isn't a perfect world and we can't take everyone just because they have a hard life

Unbelievable? From this first "lady", no, it's to be expected.
