    In your post #97 on this thread......
    YOU IMPLY (in no uncertain terms) YOUR SYMPATHY for the plight of the millions of individuals who have disregarded AMERICAN LAW, and CRIMINALLY crossed America's borders for a myriad of personal reasons.

    If it is YOUR personal opinion that these individuals should somehow have the RIGHT TO DO SO......
    And/or that American border/immigration LAW should DENY NO FOREIGN FELLOW free access to what remains of OUR land between OUR shining seas......
    That's YOUR OPINION as an American (I presume), and I support YOUR AMERICAN RIGHT to speak YOUR mind freely in any American forum.

    But I do have a very simple question for YOU......
    If it was YOUR intent to support the cause(s) of the MILLIONS OF ILLEGAL ALIENS who have entered America ILLEGALLY......
    WHY in YOUR 2 subsequent posts on this thread......
    Did YOU shift the focus of YOUR rhetoric, and opt to REFER ONLY to "IMMIGRATION" and to "IMMIGRANTS"?

    Is it possible that YOU do not UNDERSTAND the DISTINCT DIFFERENCE between a LEGAL IMMIGRANT who has complied with America's IMMIGRATION LAWS......
    As opposed to ANYONE who prefers to IGNORE ANY AMERICAN LAW that requires them to act in the same responsible manner as any other LEGAL IMMIGRANT?

    If YOU wish to champion the charge of ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION......
    Please feel FREE to "keyboard" any idea/ideal that foams your beer.

    But if it is YOUR INTENT to somehow try to CONFUSE the reality of ILLEGAL opportunism with the LEGAL reality of honest immigration......
    BE AWARE......
    When YOU post on this baord......
    YOUR missives are not being read by either children or fools.

    BTW......
    I have chided YOU purposely with specific intent.
    Are YOU up to the task? :icon_wink:
    We shall see!

    Think about it.
    I'm outta here until Wednesday night.

    How did your family get here? Where they americans? If someone came here illegally and I use the term illegally very loosely....Finds work and is not a menace to society why not give him or her the right to be a citizen. I see nothing wrong with it you do... We will always disagree..... What do's did your family pay to come here? Did you have to pay fees?

    I must admit that I honestly do not understand how you approach your message board mechanics.

    But back to the only kindling you have opted to hack at in public.
    Your logic has lost what remains of my little grey cells atop a seemingly treeless plateau.

    If YOU philosophically embrace unbridled ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION across every possible American border...... Why in hell would YOU prefer to penalize ANYONE "aiding the influx"?

    Two very simple questions......
    1)Do you understand the distinct differences between LEGAL IMMIGRANTS and ILLEGAL ALIENS?
    2) Do you believe that ILLEGAL ALIENS have ANY "RIGHT" to enter America ILLEGALLY, and not be held PERSONALLY/LEGALLY accoutable for this criminal behavior?
    I know that you believe you understand what you think I said...... But I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

    DHS To Grant Illegal Aliens “Unlawful Presence Waivers”

    In its quest to implement stealth amnesty, the Obama Administration is working behind the scenes to halt the deportation of certain illegal immigrants by granting them “unlawful presence waivers.”
    The new measure would apply to illegal aliens who are relatives of American citizens. Here is how it would work, according to a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announcement posted in today’s Federal Register, the daily journal of the U.S. government; the agency will grant “unlawful presence waivers” to illegal aliens who can prove they have a relative that’s a U.S. citizen.
    Currently such aliens must return to their native country and request a waiver of inadmissibility in an existing overseas immigrant visa process. In other words, they must enter the U.S. legally as thousands of foreigners do on a yearly basis. Besides the obvious security issues, changing this would be like rewarding bad behavior in a child. It doesn’t make sense.
    But the system often causes U.S. citizens to be separated for extended periods from their immediate relatives,” according to the DHS. The proposed changes, first announced in January, will significantly reduce the length of time U.S. citizens are separated from their loved ones while required to remain outside the United States during the current visa processing system.
    The administration also claims that relaxing the rule will also “create efficiencies for both the U.S. government and most applicants.” How exactly is not listed in the Federal Register announcement, which gives the public 60 days to comment. That’s only a formality since the DHS has indicated that the change is pretty much a done deal.
    This appears to be part of the Obama Administration’s bigger plan to blow off Congress by using its executive powers to grant illegal immigrants backdoor amnesty. The plan has been in the works for years and in 2010 Texas’s largest newspaper published an exposé about a then-secret DHS initiative that systematically cancelled pending deportations. The remarkable program stunned the legal profession and baffled immigration attorneys who said the government bounced their clients’ deportation even when expulsion was virtually guaranteed.
    In late 2011 a mainstream newspaper obtained internal Homeland Security documents outlining “sweeping changes” in immigration enforcement that halt the deportation of illegal aliens with no criminal records. This also includes a nationwide “training program” to assure that enforcement agents and prosecuting attorneys don’t remove illegal immigrants who haven’t been convicted of crimes.
    Judicial Watch has been a front runner in investigating the Obama Administration’s stealth amnesty program by pursuing DHS records concerning “deferred action” or “parole” to suspend removal proceedings against a particular group of individuals. Last spring JW sued DHS to obtain information because the agency ignored a federal public records request that dates back to July 2010.

    Dick Morris predicted this back in 08. Obama will use amnesty to get more votes and win in 2012 when he wouldn't have otherwise.
