I do wish they’d cut off the borders – I’m sick to death of illegal immigrants being taken care of when our American citizens can’t get jobs or support their families as it is.
And don’t go blaming it on the Obama administration – this has taken years of mismanagement to achieve. From Bush to Clinton and back to Bush – it’s gone on FAR too long and it’s much larger than any one man can clean up!

I am so tired of people acting like people who cross the border get a gravy train of life. Have you not seen any of the shows about the children of immigrants who cannot get into college because they do not have the proper paperwork? They were just handed everything on a golden platter the day they crossed over.
It’s crap like this that breeds hatred, supports the extremists that hunt and kill anyone with an accent and too dark of skin, and makes life harder for those who are trying to escape oppression or abuse. You should be ashamed of yourself.
If the people who crossed the border weren’t getting the “gravy train” of life – they wouldn’t keep coming.
I’m all for open arms and welcoming immigrants so long as they go through proper channels. The thing I find most interesting is we are the one country that is most lenient.
That’s where the shame is.
This is true, but if you are going to say this you are also forced by the laws of logic to admit that somebody is supplying the gravy. This is sometimes the government (in the form of welfare etc.) but this is a tiny fraction of the motivation. A MUCH LARGER MOTIVATION is the demand for cheap labor. When I say cheap labor, I also mean hassle-free labor. In CA if you want to hire someone legitimately you need to file mountains of paperwork and pay the state it’s “mafia cut” in payroll taxes. Paying the illegal is like handing the neighbor boy a wad of cash to cut the lawn. It is cheap, discrete, and hassle free. Though I must say from experience that illegals are more subservient and therefore preferred to uppity white and black kids.
Actually, if you are born in this country, you are a US citizen, no matter what the status is of you parents. If my US citizen parents didn’t get me the proper paperwork (SS#, birth certificate) I couldn’t get into a college either. It has nothing to do with your immigration status. Just FYI.
No-where is there even a hint of racisim or extremism in this post. You should apologise for attacking this woman based on her opinion, on her own damn blog, and making assumptions about how she feels about entire races of people. Shame on you.
