I was joking of course.
I'm backing a movement here in NC to build a giant fence around Chapel Hill. You can't go a block there without seeing a Volvo or Prius with an Obama sticker. Most have the 2008 and 2012 versions.

Politics can be very polarizing that's for sure.
I just fear that with the Obama'nomic's our kids and their kids will see what its like to live in a country that is poor.
Rather than bring people here we should be insisting that these other countries take care of their own. Do something besides ignore their people.

It's funny what we all view as "liberal" cars. I drive a Volvo, but I am very conservative. In VT, we see Obama stickers on Prius' and Subarus.

Hey, despite the fact the man's been dead for 20 years, he could probably do a better job than Obama.

Illegal aliens here in Texas has been a way of life for a long long long time. The same senators and congressmen who railed against illegal aliens, would joke about how little they paid their Mexican house maids. That is now political suicide.......
My husband and I owned a business and there were days when our American, well paid employees didn't show for work. Work goes on whether people show up or not. We resorted to going to the local day labor corner and hiring illegals. They worked hard and several times, we fired our employee and kept the illegal. If that makes anybody mad, then you should try being in business with your back up against the wall.
That being said, times, they are a changing..... In our county, last week, was found the largest marijuana grow in Texas history. Over 100,000 plants. There was a camp set up, generators, pipe from a creek to water the plants, and several fields of the plants. Busted! And I am sure these guys are legal........riiiight.....

We are being flooded with people who will someday be voting, and who will they vote for? We are drowning in people who leech off the rest of us, food stamps, welfare, disability, even a free cell phone. Who do you think they will vote for? People with a job are a minority. Who do you think they will vote for---and lose?
Maybe someday we'll be hiding our gardens and our animals out in the woods.

Too true Bay. A lot of people have forgotten how to work. Too many want this and that but expect to get it for little effort.
However, I imagine a lot of the so called children scampering over the border will be in the system right off the bat so will lose their drive to work hard right away. Spoiled by the American welfare teat.

In 1994 CA passed prop 187 which was to establish a state-run citizenship screening system and prohibit illegal aliens from using health care, public education, and other social services in California. It was later declared unconstitutional by the supreme court. I am just clueless as to why the US govt . doesn't grasp the "illegal" part and do something about it. In CA the argument has always been that if the illegal doesn't pick the crops and do the menial jobs then no one will because the average citizen won't do those jobs for the illegal is paid. IDK if I agree or not, but I do know that many of them have a work ethic that many US citizens seem to lack.
A few years back there was a movie released called "A Day without Mexicans" . Now being that my last name is Gallegos I had to go and see it. Not suggesting that anyone do that as I honestly don't remember if it was offensive or not, but it was a pretty good depiction of life in CA.
I live in No. CA and the pot growers here are not the illegal immigrant. Since it is legal to grow pot in CA with a prescription it is grown by many and sold by many. Not the way it is supposed to work, but the way it is. This part of the state has it own set of problems and illegal immigration is not one of them. It is a very conservative region though and that is why I like it but there are lines being drawn in the sand between the pot growers, the homeless, and the working middle class; they are just now waking up and realizing that there little part of the state is not the nirvana that is was 20 years ago.
