Did any other immigrant group ever get services in their own language
The English? or do you think we should be dealing in native American languages?
Besides, there is no immigrant group as large as the spanish speaking variety
Are you even aware that you are a nation of immigrants? At what point is it right to cut off immigration? before or after your ancestors entered the U.S.
I am an Immigrant woking here temporarily Should I leave? am I burdening your state? or does that depend on my ethnicity? you seem only to have a problem with Hispanic immigrants. you make no mention of european immigrants in your bigoted, racist little email.

Re: Back to immigration
How totally PC of you. Are you here illegally? Do you get services in your native language? Do you get services that citizens don't get?
Apparently the view here is that Americans shouldn't count, only people who aren't citizens as long as they're only from Mexico. Seems to me there's some bigoted racism THERE.
My father was a legal alien for many years and had to pass tests to become a citizen.
But THOSE immigrants don't count to the PC liberals who hate America.
The legal Latinos don't count either. They hate this PC lawlessness as much as I do.

Re: Back to immigration
Faith,
If you want to quiet the liberals here (at least for 2 seconds), tell them that the illegal aliens are all Catholics who will enact anti-gay laws once they get the right to vote.

illegal aliens ... why the Senate is ignoring the people
Why is the Senate ignoring the people who want border control?
Federal government gets some revenue from Social Security taxes, and the state and local governments get stuck with the costs of providing services.
The whiff of amnesty is stirring more coyote activity south of the border. The Rush-ins are coming ! The Rush-ins are coming!

Re: Back to immigration

thats BS, the goverment decided it was a good idea since the was a large majority of people of spainish origin coming to america
Apparently the view here is that Americans shouldn't count, only people who aren't citizens as long as they're only from Mexico. Seems to me there's some bigoted racism THERE.
oh and you call his post kneejerk? this is the highest hypocracy i've even seen, americans matter, your exageration just shows how xenophobic your arguement is.
oh and btw faith, American is not a RACE!!!
so you can stop that little whine right now!
they have as much as right to this country as we do, and they are willing to do things we will not, we are all emigrants at some point
My father was a legal alien for many years and had to pass tests to become a citizen.
good for him
But THOSE immigrants don't count to the PC liberals who hate America.
bullshit, can you quote anyone who believes this? or is this more paranoid, demonizing of someone you disagree with?
The legal Latinos don't count either. They hate this PC lawlessness as much as I do.
have any evidence of this?

Actually, many have called in to the Houston talk shows, and all of the ones I have heard (approx 20 over a couple of weeks) want border control and no amnesty. There are mixed opinions from them on what to do with the folks already here. Nevertheless, there is evidence. I'll leave it to others to determine what %.
On the other hand, a bunch took to the streets in protest, but I'm not sure how well-informed they are, based on interviews (the ones interviewed seemed to think they were going to suffer).

No they don't.
But I am sure that you will explain your opinion that they should have a right, and why a billion other people on the planet have or don't have the same right. Right?

Things, you need to remember that there are a lot of different viewpoints that might be considered liberal. I'm a liberal type, but I am strongly in support of border control. In fact, until we can stop people from coming in illegally any law we make concerning immigration is pointless.
We have to control our borders. To me, this issue must be resolved before we can address what to do with those already here illegally and how many people we are going to let in going forward.

Hey, buddy. We are absolutely aligned here.
I have written "stop the invasion. secure the southern border FIRST, or you will not be re-elected" to all my "representatives", but to no avail.
The polls indicate the people want that action, but the pols are not representing us.
I am willing to take to the streets in protest, but we need a national organizing leader like the socialist organizations are doing for the illegals.

Re: Back to immigration
Faith,
May i suggest you consider your posts more carefully. rather than having to go back and delete statments made by you which you may find embarrassing later.
Or at least, when deleteing your previous statements, acknowledge that you were wrong.
it seems the decent, honest thing to do.
APOLOGIES... my misreading of Faiths post is at fault here... He/She did not delete the text I thought he/she had.
