Correct me how?  The way you stated it sounds like he was supposed to
attack me somehow.  I ain't no Slick Willie who would have to sit there
and take it.  I put Bob Barr in the same category I put you in - he
can kiss my lousy ass.

And what is this great love you have for the Republicans anyway?  Isn't
it the Republicans and their big business buddies who support the H-1B
quota increases, which brings thousands of Chinese, Indians and others
into the US (and California).  Of course, I agree with this particular
decision - it brings educated people to fill vital job needs - exactly
what immigration should do.  However, in general, I consider the Republicans
to be every bit as screwed up and corrupt as the Democrats.

Sho'nuff.

If you want to make any pretense that we are in fact better than
them somehow, why, yes, that is exactly what I mean.  Enforce the
law, fine.  Change the law, fine.  Violate the law, you're a criminal,
just like the illegal aliens you so berate.

Brilliant comment, as usual.  The Final Solution.  Whatever works.

I don't think you have much regard for anybody.  Which is fine, because
I have none for you.

Let's see - without having to export all of our manufacturing, because
we will have plenty of cheap labor here, perhaps we may become even more
economically dominant than we are now.  One possible scenario.

Civil war in the USA, with American citizen against American citizen,
because a bunch of vigilantes begin hunting Mexican illegal aliens
in the desert (and probably killing a bunch of citizens, because they
"looked Mexican").  Another possible scenario.

Effective enforcement of immigration laws, and effective reform of
immigration laws.  Another possible scenario.

War with Mexico, resulting in some Mexicans who support the US side,
and then, when the USA wins the border skirmish, it's not fair to
leave the Mexicans who supported the USA in Mexico, so we grant them
all asylum (don't tell me this can't happen, it seems it has happened
in the last few wars we fought).  Another possible scenario.

It's likely to be the case even if we do if you eliminate effective law
and order in your quest to "get rid of these parasites".  Who determines
who is a parasite?  I sure don't think you want me to do it (you won't
be around long) and I sure don't want it to be you - so who?  US citizens?
A lot of them in your area are of Mexican origin - would you deprive them
of the right to vote in this matter?  If so, how is that any more wrong
than them somehow depriving *YOU* of any right to vote in this matter?
[I'm sure you'll explain it to me]

No, in many ways you would need to improve a lot to be a Mexican.

No, but it still doesn't add up to more Mexican nationals committing crimes
in the USA than American citizens do.  This is *EXACTLY* what I am talking
about when I mention your purely fabricated "facts".  Except you said you
you don't fabricate facts about the "Mexipest Invasion".  So how do you
define a fact?  It seems to me you define a fact as anything you decide
to state as the truth, no matter how stupid what you state is.

It's fine with me, actually.  The farther away from me you are, the
better off I am.  Just stay over 2,000 miles away in fact, if you
really care what's OK by me (don't bother to say you don't, I know
that's the case).

Why?  Because I let people know who I am when I say something, so they will
know I really stand behind it.  I don't believe that I am the lunatic in
this particular conversation.
