I am tired of stupid morons saying ohhh illegals can't get benifits that is impossble. Well heres how they do it. They cross the border illegally. Have a baby here. Then them and their entire illgal family qualifies for tons of government programs using the newly born "anchor babies" status. Tens of millions are borns a year which means two or three times that amount of illegals are accessing are government programs. That is not including the ones that do it with false ss numbers or the Hospital bills from just every day illegals. Any questions?

When many of them have never even been to Iraq?
Both sides do it!
I'm tired of it. I don't support OR protest the war, simply because I've heard too many conflicting perspectives on it.
One soldier told me he hated the Iraqi people, because they would see someone set down an IED, and look the other way.
Another said that the Iraqi people all called him (and the other guys in his unit) their "brothers." This one is very much anti-war, and hates Bush.
Another told me that the Iraqi people work with them, and are wonderful, warm people. He also said that while he was there, he hardly saw any sectrarian violence.
Yet another told me it was awful there, and he saw way too much violence.
So you see, it's not as good as many supporters make it out to be, and it's not as horrible as many protesters make it out to be. Are there people dying? Well, yes, of course, that's what usually happens in a war. But there's also good. And lots of it.
That's why I'm neutral.

With only 2 dominan parties, and lots of businessmen with connected cronies (to raise election fund). Don;t you think this kind of democracy is open to manipulation? Certain influential groups could dominate the ruling power to implement their wish list...or else.. Just look at the neo-cons and Jewish lobby power towards American Government.

A diverse group of priests from the Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago joined the immigration debate Friday, calling for the suspension of nonfelony deportations until more "compassionate" laws and policies are implemented for undocumented residents.
