2. crap! you beat me to it. A border patrol officer said on Pacifica once...
that he would get orders like ''let more through today, they need more San joaquin valley.''

And if a farmer was really cold blooded, he could call ICE when the harvest is over but before he gives them their final paychecks.

3. Border
Those behind Barak and Bush are trying to break down the border and drag our economy down to that of Mexico. Remember, there is no small picture --- think globally!

5. I think you're in the wrong place...
since you don't believe someone deserves a job just because of the color of their skin.

6. There was nothing racist about that post
I wish you and other so-called "liberals" who embrace a race to the bottom would wake up.

7. Which race is the bottom one?
Do you hate blacks or hispanics more? Tell the truth. BTW, you just exposed your real self.

4. The way things are going they should be more concerned
about emigration than immigration. All our jobs are south of the border and health care is affordable there. Throw in the local cuisine and warm weather and it doesn't sound half bad.

9. That's become the way we do things around here in the US.....
we spend more money than anyone else on things and get the terrible results. While everyone else only spends a fraction of what we do and get way better results.
