^ They will be at the back of the citizenship line. But, at any rate, I'll gladly welcome 11 million new, hardworking democrats. All of the Mexicans I have saw are some of the hardest working people I have ever witnessed. If you don't want them on entitlements, urge your representatives to raise the minimum wage above the poverty line.

No you've made it more than clear what all you would welcome. Socialism, socialized medicine, oppressive taxation in the name of redistribution of wealth, wide open borders and of course, let's not overlook your lack of understanding and motivation to defend our land against all who would do us harm, foreign and domestic. And as far as the Mexican folks being hard workers, they haven't learned the unnatural yet. Not working for one's living defies nature and therefore is a learned behavior. And brother, if anybody can teach them the ropes it's the dems!

You do realize you just suggested I pressure my state rep to force folks in private enterprise to pay more per hour to their workers? And, let's get real here. Democrats won't be able to keep these folks in the fold unless they slather their outstretched hands with the full entitlement monty. Only then can the tax dollars for votes contract they are trying to sign with the illegal immigrants reach fruition. Though admittedly, we do seem to be losing our will to punish crime, for the present at least, we don't forgive bank robbers, murderers, tax cheats (unless they're part of the Obama administration), and other high crimes. And yet, here we are ready to forgive 11 million plus who are here in this country illegally. And to make a nightmare out of madness, we will lavish them with entitlements until the treasury is emptied out. What's really funny is that you believe your money will be spared somehow and all this won't touch you.
