FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO OPPOSE IMMIGRATION - UNLESS YOU'RE NATIVE AMERICAN - YOU TOO ARE THE SPAWN OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.

You're in position to judge others.

There were immigration laws in place at that time?
Can something be illegal if there are no laws against it???

You miss my point - unless you're Native American, the fact is that you're all the spawn of illegal immigrants.

American settlers were illegal immigrants.
People who cut not cut it in their own countries too.

We'll get 12 million more voters. They'll get unionized, too, so SEIU will benefit as well.

Nonsense.

This country is full of LEGAL immigrants, people who followed the law and came in legally, stood in line, and gained their citizenship, worked hard and paid their way.

How about we toss out of office anybody who even suggests we give illegal aliens legal status? They'd get the message. Then we begin to deport the illegals we really don't need or want, but we can give consideration to those who have proven useful and worthy of citizenship. They could get on a fast track to come back here legally, in line with other legal immigrants.

Europe is full of usurpers who stole land. Just ask any Cro-Magnon.

Right on, Icy Tea. If you ran for office, you'd get my vote!

Get out from under that rock. Let's face it, if amnesty happens, we'll have an influx of Mexican immigrants, and the welfare they can collect is the first thing on their minds. And how the hell do you expect them to pay taxes when there are so few jobs to be had right now? It's not even in their interest to work "on the books." They'll be undercut by the illegals who DON'T get amnesty, because the employers hiring them now won't want to pay the legal minimum wage.
