Perriello on Immigration; Goode on "Anchor Babies"

[Lamashtar]

Why does the govt allow this? Both parties could agree to take away habeas corpus, but not to safeguard who we allow as citizens? We need an army on the southern border to stop these invaders and put in jail people who employ illegals. Don't be fooled by the 'oh, we can't get regular Americans.' Illegals were scabs imported to break the fieldworkers union. The minute we legalized some, the landowners quit hiring those--they only want people who can't unionize. Legals can't compete now.

[coolioboyiscoolable]

Why do people complain about Mexicans taking their jobs? If an illegal immigrant has taken your job, you're probably really, really stupid.

This country is done, as the genius Michael Savage say "from a melting pot into a chamber pot", thanks a lot libs for that one. If you do not study a little history, let me clue you in, White westen Europeans have created and maintained the greatest societies. Do you like modernity, thank a CRACKER.

[1971freestyle]

Goode lives up to the stereotype the South has had to live with.  Now its not the South's issue, it's virgil, Jr.'s issue.

Why should we have to accommodate others who don't belong in this nation. Should we choose to learn a new language, that should be up to us - not forced upon us by others who are not even legal. You're apparently intelligent & can see why so many ppl are upset over this issue. The myth about the illegals not doing jobs Americans want is just that - a myth. When illegals are flushed out of companies - Americans show up the next day, if not the same, to apply for the jobs.

i used to work at a insulation company, when they started hiring illegals they lowered our wages and get rid of our health insurance, as more and more of the legal workers left more illegals came, before you knew it none of my fellow workers could speak english, would you want to work with people who cant speak the same lang as you

[illegalalienscum]

Yeah, get rid of Illegal aliens and their anchor roaches

[lsucowboys99]

i can't believe periello would actually want people to see this

if only goode wasnt so prone to moronic comments, and just told the truth like he does here

[gundamWWW]

I don't think that Jack Bauer said that, however all Americans have immigrant roots in them. Illegal or non illegal this country was founded by people with roots from other nations. Anchor babies is a ridiculous term.

[jmjfanss]

Virgil Goode speaks the truth here.

Illegal immigration is hurting our country and it must be stopped and now they are planning a north american union, which will make the situation of immigration worse.

[LBCBJ]

Virgil Goode is truly a moron, yet the sheep clap for him. My God. This Perriello fellow actually sounds like he has a decent head on his shoulders - unfortunately I think he's a little too "educated" for the 5th district's taste.

[WhatWouldJackBauerDo]

The term "anchor baby" means illegal immigrants who come to the U.S and have children here. Suddenly they are citizens while their parents are not; which makes it less likely to get them to leave. Now they get all the benefits of american citizens because they broke the law and are scamming the government. Oh, and for those crying out "RACISM AGAINST HISPANICS!" i really doubt we have a flood of illegals coming from Canada.

[MexicanHeartofMine]

Who are the true anchor babies? Europeans came from overseas. Took what was someone else's.

All that trouble to get here. Europeans piled up packed in ships for wks. Without steamships, for 2-3mons. Sickness and disease came about. All that trouble just to have their descendants to cry and whine. Guess what comes around goes around.

[bandog87]

dont like the fact that he supported the patriot act and real id, but he did vote no on the bailout bill. As for immigration, uphold the laws we have. get legalized or go home. no more herd mentality. im done with it.

[ftuwee]

wow, the crowd actually cheered to his retarded idea. God help us if this retard is elected

[keith19633]

THAT HOW TRUE AMERICANS FEEL! they have no rights, we must rid our country of these sub-humans!

[GALEO2007]

Virgil Good is shameful. The term is dehumanizing.  Respect the U.S. Constitution.

[checkers35]

How did I know this weasel would be attracted to any issue that allowed him to express his bigotry openly? This is the same man who freaked out about Congressman Keith Ellison swearing in on the Koran. Virgil Goode is of the three biggest disgraces of modern day Virginia.

[checkers35]

Mr. Goode only referred to Mexicans, Guatemalans and El Savadorians as having "anchor babies" (shudder). That just goes to show me what a true bigot he really is, since there are many more undocumented immigrants living in the US and they are from ALL over the world.

[SoINeedAName48]

rep. Goode - you not only are a racist bigot - you're a LYING racist bigot.

I'd also add you're a rethuglican ... but I'd just be repeating myself, wouldn't I?

McSame-Palin game-plan: FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM BIGOTRY FEAR HATE RACISM ...

The sad thing is, it's worked so well for them in the past!

[keith19633]

why because thats how true americans feel!

[RalphNelson]

I kept expecting to hear the word "naygrow".

[WTPOA]

You are incorrect on "Zero Chance." Americans are fed up and want to see our laws enforced and they want the illegal aliens to leave. There is a legal path to enter the United States. Ask your state and local government for E Verify and SAVE (Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements). More are leaving and more will leave with enforcement. Call ICE and report any business suspected of using illegal aliens. Keep calling until they come. Tell your representatives who is hiring.

[fongalongalong]

You're not a real person. Who are you? I am calling you out. What organization are you with?

[WTPOA]

American citizens must contact their representatives to say "No" to Birthright Citizenship. There is legislation to stop this. Make your calls today. Email today. No more Anchor Babies, no more tax payer dollars for the illegal aliens. No more services and benefits. The anchor babies drag the illegal alien families into the United States and give a pathway to citizenship for the ones already here. Stop the Nonsense. Tennessee is being financially crippled from illegal immigration.

[thecoyote]

The only reason the crowd cheered was because he said America.

[kyledeb]

Virgil Goode is a disgrace to an institution that claims to represent the people of the United States of America. What Goode calls "anchor babies" are U.S. citizens whether Goode likes it or not. To dehumanize the very people he represents with a term like that is despicable.
