Is it just me, or were Americans negligent when voting in the election?

Question

The House had our backs covered in regards to the immigration problem. Now, thanks to ignorant Americans, we have NO ONE. The President is more than ready to give millions of ILLEGALS Amnesty, and the Senate is more than ready. Now, the House, sadly with more democrats will be more than ready to ignorantly sign an amnesty bill. I'm tired of being called a "racist" because I'm against illegal immigration. I am all for immigration, but it has to be monitored and controlled, and those that come, come her LEGALLY. If not, we will become a 3rd world Country.

jl jack09,

It's just common sense. There is not one conservative friend of mine that is for amnesty. Any liberals I know feel they have every right to be here. Just because I have common sense and worry about my Country's well being does not make me uneducated. I can argue though that some highly educated people are some of the most stupid people!


jenab6, I want my country to reserve for legal immigrants that will contribute and make this Country better. Not sap our system dry and hurt Americans in the process.

I say Americans did vote blindly in the election. Yes, some people are sick of what is happening in America, but it is irresponsible to not think illegal immigration is not hurting our Country. Did some of you not see the video? If illegal, uneducated mexicans continue to cross our borders and they are not stopped, what do you think the outcome would be? I am quite perplexed as to why some people just can't see what is happening.

Answer 1

It will take more tax dollars for healthcare, and all the welfare and SSi they want to hand out, so, watch for the stock market to begin to suffer, watch for tax bills trying to get passed, and no attemp to make the tax cuts permanent.

Everyone wants to complain, just look at many of these posts, but no one gets out and pulls the lever like they should. Its the only way your voice will be heard, and only the party that gets the most voters out, like the welfare group, will get the votes.

Answer 2

Americans are genernally negligent when voting.

This election might be an exception, since the voter turnout went from the mid-40s to the high-60s or low-70s by percentage.

You don't like the outcome. Neither do about 50% of the population, regardless of who wins. This is nothing new.

But you seem to be complaining that the Republican president, and the former Republican-controlled Senate were set to do something you don't like, and now that the Democrats control the House, that is more likely to happen. That doesn't make a lot of sense, sorry.

Answer 3

you are confused. Also un informed. maybe un educated.
Republicans want more illegals not less. They need them to exploit and pay them no benefits. Democrats do not support Amnesty, that is just not true. Bush supports amnesty, he calls it a guest worker program. There also was nothing Ignorant about how the vote went. As a matter of fact 60 percent of those between 18-30 voted for a Democrat and half that number were in college now.

Answer 4

You're making a mistake in your logic. Whether the United States becomes a "third world country" depends on which kind of people lives there. It does NOT depend on whether those people are resident legally or illegally. The only difference is that the illegal immigrant is already a criminal and deserves punishment and then deportation for his crime of illegal entry. In all other respects, the immigrant's effect on society has no bearing on whether he arrived legally or otherwise.

If you want a certain kind of culture, you must reserve your country for the kind of people who make that culture. If you allow different kinds of people in, you'll get cultures that you don't want near you: violent cultures, trashy cultures, impoverished cultures, cultures that don't speak your language, etc.

Don't be afraid to speak the truth. There is, throughout most of the White countries, an ominous pressure that makes people to be afraid or ashamed of telling racial truths. The first enemy isn't the illegal immigrants: the first enemy are those who make panic and guilt the price of honesty. Find them. Destroy them. Then deal with the illegals.

Answer 5

It's just you......
Although I agree that the illegal immigration issue needs to be revisted, the situation is out of control in my opinion. I don't think that makes the American voters negligent.
The reality of this election was abundantly clear. It was a general statement from the American public that they want things, in general to change. I have talked to soo many Republicans that voted Dem this time because they too fell our country is going in the wrong direction. No one has a perfect solution to all of the problems facing our nation right now, but the reality is, that our current track was going down hill fast. Our best hope at this time, is that maybe, just maybe something productive will come out of this election.

Answer 6

the way some white people imagine is retarded. The liberals attempt now to not discriminate adverse to the races. They highly help the middle clss or operating type yet trust heavy in social courses to provide the"universal" guy a danger. So no they don't unmarried out blacks. From a black guy' s attitude, we flow with the lessor of two evils. we are screwed both way yet we may be able to a minimum of get something with liberals by the social facilities, like help with practise.

Answer 7

With the outcome so directed to making a statement. The message was clear. Get out of Iraq!
With such a thin margin this will be completed only with coorporation from both sides of the aisle!

Answer 8

i disagree with that . the Democrats are more moderates than you think and the far left liberals will have a hard time getting this amnesty approve .there will be some deal but not all demarcates is for letting these illegals have a free ride so wait and see your going to be surprise who is not for this bush new immigration reform bill it will be the demarcates

Answer 9

Many Democrats got elected because of Mexican Illegals voting Democrat.
Now, the Democrats must reward them.

Answer 10

let's just quit paying taxes! They can't jail us all!
Start a tax revolt like the good ol' days of the Boston Tea Party!
