167. You know what , just give it up. You don't even want to know if these
people are illegal. You admit that. I do care. I don't believe in open borders. Perhaps you do. And I do not believe illegal immigrants should have the same rights and benefits as citizens. I guess that makes me one of those that put "America first'. I am more concerned about our borders and our jobs. America is a nation of immigrants but mostly of immigrants who had enough respect for this country to get here by obeying its laws. I don't give immigrants a pass because they might not be accepted into this country if they were to legally apply. We have a right to refuse to admit certain persons. Illegals don't have the right to say, I need a job, so I don't have to wait in line or abide by a quota.
Immigration is what made our country great, but only because it was controlled and administered. No good can come out of this request for chaos!

And many well intentioned liberals are being snookered. This is the Republicans issue to distract us from the war and the latest Bushco blunders! Notice it is the Repukes calling for amnesty to benefit their coporate overlords. You can't seriously believe this is about poor Hispanics?Why else would the MSM be promoting this when they didn't even cover the anti war marches? You watch. the administration will be pointing out how 'humanitatian' they are by advocating amnesty or a guest worker program!
