   I predict McCain’s next move to cuddle with conservatives is to accredit Obama’s landslide to the NC GOP ad.

   Ummm yea, mcamnesty will get right on that. Expect him to announce his intention to address the “You Don’t Speak For Me” conference the same day he pulls his head out of his *ss. And that will be out the same time the world figure skating champoinship is held in h*ll. Afterall, mcamnesty knows hispanics better than anyone else. And he knows this is just some fringe cook group that is, errr, racist xenophobes?.

    The problem with these Hispanics are, they don’t scream loud enough, or do stupid antics like fly the Mexican flag.
    Thus, the media will ignore them. The only way they get attention is to stage a three-ring circus.

    Great question. Just like AARP getting federal taxpayer money then turning around and using it to lobby for more.

    Maybe the millions in the housing bailout bill is just the start of a bidding war between the Dems and Republicans for the affection of La Raza. Whose next in line with these creeps? CAIR? Al Quaeda?

    Feds arrest illegal immigrants who are trying to leave USA

    The government has a new approach to border enforcement. Instead of just focusing on people who are entering the country illegally, the Los Angeles Times says federal agents are also arresting undocumented foreigners who are trying to leave the United States.

    The paper reports that U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers have been stopping vehicles and checking the immigration status of travelers near the San Diego-Tijuana border crossing.

    “The illegal immigrants they apprehend are typically turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol for processing,” according to the paper. “Unless they have serious criminal records or numerous immigration violations, most are returned to Mexico within a few hours.”

    Officials wouldn’t tell the Times how many people have been picked up during these random sweeps.

    Republicans try to sabotage the Democrat primary, and Democrats try to sabotage the Republican primary.

    I live in New Mexico, which has a large percentage of citizens with Spanish surnames. Most of us are not supporters of open borders. We want border enforcement. Unfortunately, our governor (Bill Richardson, who is currently running for Secretary of State) believes in supplying driver’s licenses to illegal aliens and New Mexico is so solidly Democrat that only open borders advocacy is covered in the news.

    I mean, you’d think that the illegal aliens could vote.

    This being New Mexico, I guess they could.

    McCain-Kennedy is NOT “amnesty”! It is REWARDS, dammit.

    I would be happy to give true amnesty to all illegal aliens – no fine, no jail time, just leave – but I refuse to REWARD them with their ill-gotten goods they stole – residency in our country.

    Thank you, “You Don’t Speak for Me’”group, for putting America first and telling the world the truth about legal immigrants and natural citizens of hispanic heritage, and their fidelity to the United States.

    We can’t let our border states become 3rd world countries. Legal immigrants didn’t come here for that any more than my Irish ancestors did.

    abstractmind, #49 thanks for the link. The following quote from the link both enraged me and helped me to understand the mentality of illegal aliens and their supporters.
    

    “Pobrecitos (poor people),” said Lily Lujan, who watched the immigrants being arrested as she walked to the border crossing. “They were almost home. If they’re already leaving the country, what’s the problem?”

    What’s the problem???? Jesus…somebody….help me.

    Sure thing!

    What they don’t realize is, that the problem isn’t that they were going home, but that they were here to begin with…because they don’t see illegals as being a problem, they are more worried more than their detainment, which according to the article, is only a few hours.

    It gives law enforcement time to try and identify them (in case they’re wanted for another crime elsewhere), as well as record that they were here illegally before so that they can be added to the list of lawbreakers on the books now.

    This is one time where a catch and release (back to their side of the border!) is ok with me!
