Eisenhower quoted a report in The New York Times that said: “The rise in illegal border-crossing by Mexican ‘wetbacks’ to a current rate of more than 1,000,000 cases a year has been accompanied by a curious relaxation in ethical standards extending all the way from the farmer-exploiters of this contraband labor to the highest levels of the Federal Government.”

I don’t think so. The truth is we have always been a nation of native born. At no time did European immigrants out number the native born inhabitants of North America. Even by the mid 1700’s when the thirteen colonies were still under the rule of the British Crown, the majority of the colonist were native born and out numbered any immigrant population.

At no time in our nations history has the immigrant population ever been higher than 15 %. Usually our nations immigrant population was between 5 % and 10 %. During peak immigration periods, is reached 15 %.

Today with unsecured borders and a Kennedy led lunatic immigration policies, we have 15 % of our population who are either legal immigrants or are illegal aliens.

But even today we are not a nation of immigrants but a nation of native born Americans.

But if the Kennedy clan and the open borders people have their way, for the first time in our nation’s history, we just might become a nation of immigrants.

an immigration policy should first and foremost serve the national interest

Our Liberal Elite on both sides of the aisle wouldn’t know what was a national interest if it bit them in the ass! Those in power only care about themselves. No one is willing to rise up beyond self-interests. 3rd Party Time!

I wondered which side he thought had “indoctrinated” me? I couldn’t tell if AlturaCt was calling me a PC pansy for saying that racism is bad–or whether he thought I was whitewashing the evil Founders.

I would like to know which flank I’m taking fire from!

/sarcasm

The clueless ignore Providence and devalue citizenship to a “right” bestowed on any breathing scallywag that breaks into the country.

Speaking of clueless:

This debate was not about race: the Founders were fighting about these issues back when, sadly, only immigrants who were white were eligible for American citizenship. (From Michelle’s narrative)

It is pathetic you felt the need to make these comments. Indoctrination works all too well. Why not just call them evil racist bastards and let’s wipe them from the history books.

Rather than bravely toss daggers at men long dead, why don’t you worry about the biggest hypocrite racist in the nation – Hillary the Rod Clinton. If not for her, Obama would be the clear favorite to become our next President. But this can’t happen, of course, in her world view until we have a white female POTUS.

Exactly.

While it is most unChristian of me to even think it: every time I hear of a dreadful decision by some boneheaded leftist judge that further soils our society and endangers us, the fleeting thought comes to my mind – it should have been the judge’s wife, or granddaughter, or niece/nephew, etc who is next molested (or whatever) by the perp that’s been let off; or, the perp that’s been released should be set up to live right next door to the judge, or to members of his family.

Can’t help it.

Then, I realize that the judge’s wife, etc. are themselves innocent, and I beg for forgiveness from you-know-who. I certainly don’t mean to ask for the sins of the father to be visited on the children. Believe me.

Todays Congress, and Senate: America is an idea, not a place. Please spend more than you have, and the Federal Reserve will let you borrow more money, then sell T-bills to China, and Iran who hate you. Keep those borders open, and lose more jobs overseas with no fair trade. Treason!

It has often given me pleasure to observe that independent America was not composed of detached and distant territories, but that one connected, fertile, widespreading country was the portion of our western sons of liberty. Providence has in a particular manner blessed it with a variety of soils and productions, and watered it with innumerable streams, for the delight and accommodation of its inhabitants. A succession of navigable waters forms a kind of chain round its borders, as if to bind it together; while the most noble rivers in the world, running at convenient distances, present them with highways for the easy communication of friendly aids, and the mutual transportation and exchange of their various commodities.

With equal pleasure I have as often taken notice that Providence has been pleased to give this one connected country to one united people–a people descended from the same ancestors, speaking the same language, professing the same religion, attached to the same principles of government, very similar in their manners and customs, and who, by their joint counsels, arms, and efforts, fighting side by side throughout a long and bloody war, have nobly established general liberty and independence.
