There shold be no path to citizenship 4 anyone entering the U.S. illegally. R policy granting citizenship to Anyone Born Here of illegal parents needs to be reexamined. Its outmoded & provides incentive to enter the U.S. illegally.

Election Day results sent a message Americans R -Fed Up with Mexicans. More than 60 Democratic House & four Dem senators, most pro-amnesty, were defeated. Those who kept their seats should be nervous about bucking the trend toward enforcement.

3/3 C SPAN “Black Republican Forum” Session 2 (begin at 11:30) West said one of the 1986 caveats was to secure our borders, enforcement our laws, but we’re still talking about new amnesty like DREAM Act. We can’t allow local cities to make sanctuary cities policies, because they will bring our inner city turf wars to epic proportions by bringing in the drug cartel and Columbian gangs. (Mexican Gangs don’t recognize our borders established by the Treaty of Guadalupe)

2/3 In November 2010, 15.1 million were unemployed (9.8%). 154 million are able to work in workforce (15.1 million/9.8%). GOOGLE “illegal immigration counters”, There are 11,941,812 (or 11.9 million) skilled jobs provided to illegal immigrants. the 15.1 million unemployed could take the 11.9 million available jobs. The unemployment rate could be reduced to 2.1% {{15.1-11.9)/154}.

Americans can not hold the Immigrant students accountable for UCLA Professor Kent Wong's, Comments. to call you Senates office and ask them to pass the Dream Act now. Phone these Senators now SENATE SWITCHBOARD --  202-224-3121

Figures that lawless communist propaganda such as this would require comment approval. Bleeding heart liberals care nothing more than for the "humanity" of others even as you criminally sell out your fellow citizens wholesale.

If the Dream Act had actually passed, it'd serve you right to see your families slaughtered in bed by the same criminals you supported in violating American laws.

Get the fuck out of my country if you cannot uphold the laws of MY country!

Fucking traitors

[TheTortugaTanker]

It's unfair for the parents of anchor babies to put the responsibility for their children on American citizens. The children are the parents' responsibility. We should not reward the parents' crime by conferring citizenship and its benefits on their children. That just lets the children later sponsor their parents and others creating a new cycle of endless chain migration.
