Got to think about this one. Let's see. If I'm anti-illegal immigration, then I'm against illegal immigration. Ok, makes sense. If I'm *against* anti-illegal immigration, then I must be for illegal immigration. Johnson Give her a break, she's a little ditzy. OK, a lot ditzy. A little... ![]() Coming from Jack the ding-dong. Doesn't hold a lot of water. He has a nervous bladder? He also suffers from an overactive brain stem. Like Tosk, he's got more cockroach in his DNA than the character Vincent D'Onofrio played in Men in Black. Although the bug had better looks. None of my friends understands why I loved that movie... Loved it and even liked the sequel. Tommy Lee Jones, Will Smith were great together and Linda Fiorentino was smart casting. Characters were a lot of fun, including Rip Torn. I laughed heartily most of the way through. Very clever. |

You mean if an illegal is from Mexico he calls him a Mexican illegal? Blasphemy! He also doesn't seem to spend much time on the downside of kicking all these low-wage workers out of the country.

I know there's a huge workforce that picks most of our fruits and vegetables for far lower wages than our fellow citizens are used to getting paid. They also provide domestic help as you pointed out.

Colorado I think. It's the economy..... They were Mexicans in white face paid by Lou Dobbs. He's just a little too hopped up. Now it looks like he's having to bark outside the tent of a different circus. I don't see a place for him. Given his birther madness, Fox probably comes closest. Maybe they can turn him totally insane. If anyone can push Lou into an onscreen heart attack, it'd be Fox. Hannity will be glad to help him edit footage. No, it is CBS that edits tapes. Puts sparklers in gas tanks to show they explode, etc. Oh, are you now disagreeing with Hannity? He admitted they'd doctored the piece last night and admitted they were wrong. Fell far short of an actual admission tho', he said it was inadvertent. Nope, pointing out some of the mainstream media lies even more. Sort of like the letter about Bush's military career. No standing up and admitting they lied. Quite right. In fact, one of the excuses given at the time was that even if the document were a forgery, it was at least representative of the truth. Hyperbole had a field day from the left-field bleachers with that canard. Bush was quite the war hero, unlike John Kerry. No hyperbole there. -- Nom=de=Plume |

No one is perfect. The difference is the quantity from organizations such as Fox. After a while, it's hard to call yourself a news organization with a straight face. -- Nom=de=Plume |

A nice thought, but incredibly naive. In Freehold, NJ, there is a muster zone for these illegals. They hang out there all day waiting for work, for some landscaper or other business to pick them up. Cash trade. The town decided to shut down the zone, and began regular patrols to disperse the crowd: "Day laborers filed a federal class action lawsuit alleging the borough prevented workers from seeking employment. The lawsuit was filed on behalf of day laborers, many of whom are Hispanic immigrants, after the town shut down a muster zone where the laborers solicited work from area contractors. The class claimed they were harassed and threatened with police action for assembling at the location to scout work. The Borough of Freehold has agreed to settle the case for $278,000." -Newsday See? They were not illegal immigrants, they were "day laborers", and *many* were "Hispanic immigrants". All working for cash, neither the employer nor themselves paying the taxes they owe the government. Now talk about enforcing the laws already on the books. Johnson Sure doesn't look like they were enforcing them in a way that could be prosecuted. They just shut the area down. That's the trouble with our democracy. You need to have proof of illegal activities. They didn't want to go through the trouble. Why yes, that's it man! There was no illegal activity. They didn't enter the country illegally. They weren't loitering around all day on the sidewalks. They weren't working for employers who didn't pay payroll taxes. These cash day-workers are truly paying their taxes, dutifully filing state and federal tax returns every year. No, golly gee, these are decent, upstanding, law-abiding, hard-working American citizens, reinforcing the fabric of a solid society. Golly gee, why didn't *I* think of that when I read the story? Damn you're brilliant, JPS! Who are you going after next? Waitresses? Why? Have they entered the country illegally? Actually your question says it all, "Who are you going after next?". That's fear. Be very afraid, JPS. An attempt might be made to enforce the laws. Thank god it was subverted, and thank god we have you to spin a rosy picture of it. Johnson |

Respectfully, Em, (and not that this is necessarily relevant to the conversation at hand), you will not find me defending Bush or Kerry in this NG. I'm not impressed with the political aristocracy, right or left. Nor am I impressed with political propaganda, hyperbole, disingenuity in the press, and poor thinking. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |
