I have a solution the the immigration problem. Give a state back to Mexico

[El Supremo]

In particular - Utah. :woohoo:

Texas, New Mexico, part of Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, California and Utah used to be Mexican territory. Texas fought a revolution to gain its Independence. The others were unfairly taken from Mexico as booty from the Mexican war.

If we gave some economically developed territory back to Mexico it would stop the flood of illegals crossing our border. Utah is the best choice. The only one of the bunch that still supports *. Full of crazy polygamists. And hard to get a drink in.

My flame retardant suit is on!

1. That idea is okay, but how about THIS one?

Take all the jobs that "American's won't do" and then outsource THEM overseas, and bring back some of the high paying jobs we will do.

2. Lets give them a red state. Maybe Texas?

[Ian David]

3. Give them Utah, Wyoming, Idaho and Nebraska

They're the only states where Bush still has a positive approval rating.

If Mexico doesn't want them... then just give them to Al Quaeda.

5. very funny 'Mr. Supreme'

All that would do is move the border.

6. To hell with that, give them KANSAS! and it's fundie wackos

[Burning Water]

7. Great idea.

:sarcasm:

And which state will we give them after they've turned Utah into Mexico, with all its attendant economic and political problems?
