jcase33 · 06-20-2006, 07:31 PM

I don't think its a matter of hating Mexicans. I for am tired of the hand-outs, the abuses of our social system and the drain on our schools that illegals have on our society. BUILD THAT WALL!!!!

No, I don't.

What I dislike is our our government allowing immigrants to enter our country illegally and doing nothing about it.

I like law abiding citizens and a government that enforces its laws.

No, I don't hate Mexicans.

I love mexicans, they make delicious tacos

"Build that wall" was more of a metaphor than the actual building of a wall. Its about policy change, attitude change and respecting and enforcing our nations borders.

Geeez

Well since his location says California, maybe he is suggesting by putting the flag there that he may as well live in Mexico.

I don't know what it's like in California, and I'm sure it's 100 times worse, but illegal immigration and cheap labor is a problem here. Any labor job that would pay $16/hr in Connecticut pays less than $4/hr here. My boyfriend used to do warehousing up north and those jobs are nonexistant down here, because that's the illegal immigrants' jobs. Something has to be done, but I can't say that I agree with any proposed solutions really, so I don't know.

Well it's about time GWB starts learning Español

I speak Spanish (I must, my GF is latina) it's not that difficult(but hey were talking GWB here

)

But I must admit my GF said a Dutch passport is worth 1000 times her current passport...

bimmer4me · 06-21-2006, 04:58 AM

GWB already knows Spanish. Actually, he is the first president to speak a second language.

Actually, we've got cheap labor down here and can build it for half that in half the time.

Are you serious? Hmm. I know Thomas Jefferson was a student of ancient Greek (He totally rocked), but that perhaps doesn't count as a spoken one.

Oh man it would be hilarious to see illegal immigrants being used for cheap labor in building the Mexican-U.S. wall.
