Where have all the illegal alien questions gone?

Are we that driven by the news median that we only question the things that are hot news topics?

    Good question...Short answer... Those that oppose illegal immigration and thus the pro illegal immigrant supporters, are most often times violated... Yahoo, wants to make sure that it is not going to loose 20 million potential customers.....

    Also, alot of people that are attached to the cause are simply re trenching themselves for the battle ahead... I have heard alot of nonsense about the innauguration march that the pros are going to have, and it would appear that the antis are waiting for them to make the first move.. Of intrest.. 35 states attempted or did pass harsher laws regarding illegal immigrants.. On a state level, the antis have won. On a national level, we now have to fight the Amnesty machine.

    Fork them all.....

    Restrain

    Repatriate

    Repeat....

    It happens every ten years or so....immigration becomes a hot button topic for a while, congress stalls reform, then the public forgets, and the cycle starts all over again.

    The issue will never go away and become worse each time it is brought up.

    Unfortunately, 90% of a sustainable solution rests with a foreign country to the south that is absolutely not interested in helping its own people!

    I am with Da_Webwa; there will be new complaints after 30 million become citizens. Obama's administration has more hispanics in high positions that blacks; two blacks have cabinet level appointments. With five cabinet level hispanics and more to be appointed, they will get their way.

    Millions are just waiting to come in and thousands are coming in simply because they know his stand on illegal immigration. I will not hate over it because it is nothing we can do about it.

    Each individual State will be FORCED to do something. Probably the Southern States will take action due to the complaints of the people.

    I think most working people are on vacation and this site has the school aged crowd as a majority now.

    I was wondering the same thing. And have the illegals left their mortgages and jobs behind and to go back home now that they can't suck off our economy anymore?

    I think someone suggested we were carrying viruses and had our posts removed. My Norton 360 and MSN Malware says nothing is on my system, so someone is cheating at Yahoo.

    We are waiting for Obama, Reid, and Pelosi to try to shove a mass amnesty for illegal aliens bill down the throats of American citizens. Believe me, when this happens there will be plenty of action at Y/A and at the offices of Congressmen across the USA opposing this BS!

    Obama has appointed la raza and other pro-illegal alien people to his cabinet, including Gov. Napolitano. He has promised la raza a mass amnesty, and he will have to deliver if he expects to get Hispanic votes in 2012.

    That's what it is! the people that are so gun-ho and against illegal immigration only go by the "hot topics", and this years topic was immigration only because it was an election year. People tried to make it seem worst then it really is. The Politicians promised to take care of that so-called issue, just to get your votes. Let's see what the new topic is for 2009?
