In school we were taught that the US was a melting pot where people from all over the world came here to live & have the freedoms they could not enjoy in their homelands. They actually had more freedom then we do now.

I am very proud of our melting pot status it is one of the things that makes this country so great.
However for it to be as fair as possible rules need to be followed so that one person or one nationalty does not have an unfair advantage over others.
People from all nations have a right to come here to have a better life they better darn well do it legally however.
And not just have a baby so that the baby is legal and they can stay, that really bothers me. A baby should be wanted for itself not for legal status.

It has been two years now since the Fed's raided an area town & took 389 Hispanic people off to processes them. The workers that were illegal along with their families were sent back to Mexico. It turned out a third of the town was sent back to Mexico. They came here to work & were treated very badly by another group of people. There were legal workers too. They lost their jobs, didn't get paid because the plant closed. It was & is still a real mess. The old immigration laws have to be changed. The sponsors have to be held responsible. I don't know how long our country can hold up to all this? The Fed's can raid a little town but can't seem to take care of the border & illegals streaming in? There must be something wrong with our government? I know I am sick of the stinking lying politicans that are running this country.

I know I am sick of the stinking lying politicans that are running this country.

Until people forget about how much money congressman/senator X brought back to their district and finally vote the bastards out, nothing is going to change.

A constant in the news is how upset people are with congress and politics in general........yet over 90% of the incumbents who run for re-election for their office win.

Can't have it both ways, people. Your guy is part of the problem too.
