It has come to my attention that http://chicagoanswer.net/ is pushing for Amnesty rights for all immigrants. Now let me make my self 100% clear. I have NO beef with someone who is willing to come to the USA, and BECOME an American, to earn a better life. To earn a piece of the American pie, that is after all the American dream. The American dream, what a wonderful sound it has. But what is it? ?We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.? I Now here in the year 2006, we have an odd situation. See when the government no longer wants to pay attention to us, the people. But rather, the corporate leaders armed with the big bucks. These men and women who are supposed to be looking out for ?We the people? are not. But is more interested in making Illegal immigrants who bring the disease?s we eradicated and infestation of bed bugs, that our grandparents still suffer the effects of DDT used to eradicate them in the first place; back with them across the border. And by law have NO VOICE IN OUR POLITICAL WORKINGS. If they had come properly they would be screened for health issues that pose a risk to the rest of us. If, that is not enough to make you wonder, read this. ?If an American is to amount to anything he must rely upon himself, and not upon the State; he must take pride in his own work, instead of sitting idle to envy the luck of others. He must face life with resolute courage, win victory if he can, and accept defeat if he must, without seeking to place on his fellow man a responsibility which is not theirs.? - Review of Reviews January 1897 My fellow Americans, I am in Shock!!!!!!

He would indeed turn the machine guns on everyone, the whole world would watch...and then they would blame the USA for it because EVERYTHING bad that happens anywhere in the world is America's fault. The perpetual apologists would say, "Yes, President Fox killed thousands of innocent protesters, but they wouldn't have had to protest if the U.S. weren't full of xenophobes and racist hate-mongers." You guys know I'm right, too. It's nauseating, but it's true. But Mexico's woes are not our responsibility. And nothing will get better for the Mexican people if all of their problems can be exported to the United States. By allowing so much of Mexico into the U.S., we are enabling the problems in Mexico to perpetuate themselves. Only with the blood of brave men and women can Mexico be freed. Remember that it was blood that freed America from tyranny as well. - - - - - - - We all have to recognize that a good portion of our country has been convinced by leftists in the media and in academia that the United States and our culture is evil. They've been convinced that hating America makes you a good person. People naturally want to be good people (especially if you don't feel that good about yourself to begin with), so most people who spout the rhetoric of our enemies believe they're answering a higher moral call. Since most of them have lived sheltered lives in the sanctity and security of the United States, they are accustomed to words not meaning much. In America, everyone talks, but few act (thank God for the Few). They believe that they can say that the U.S. is a terrible nation and that nothing will come of it. They believe that they can bash America, thereby affirming their general benevolence to themselves, and there will be no consequences. Unfortunately, they do not realize that the forces who planted the anti-American sentiments have the full intention of backing up their words with actions, and that their own perpetuation of anti-American sentiment is making it possible for these goals to come to fruition. They are helping to break our collective will, making us all hate ourselves, so that when the invaders come, we will surrender ourselves and our country to them with little resistance, seeing it as our just desserts. This is why so many Americans want to tolerate the invasion of illegals; they honestly feel that they (and therefore the rest of us) deserve to be invaded. These people have been tricked into bringing about their own destruction. They are literally sick with a neurosis or a psychosis, and they need our help. They hate themselves, and they're trying everything they can to feel like good people. In so doing, however, they are aiding and abetting the enemies of America, which, unfortunately, cannot be tolerated much longer. The situation is already dire. We must try to help them. They are our countrymen. But if they refuse to be helped they will have to become our enemies as well. In essence, these people are good people who just don't see that they've been led astray. They've been manipulated by very clever, very sly subversives who play on the benevolence and self-loathing of good-but-haunted people in order to use them as pawns for their anti-American causes. It sounds outrageous. But outrageous things are happening everyday, so they begin to seem normal to us. Read about the generation of Americans who fought Word War II, and then look at today's generations. Then you will see how far the enemies of America have come. We should all be very worried. A message to those who have been led astray: The sins of your ancestors are not your fault. No American alive today has owned a slave or slaughtered a clan of Pequot indians. Lands have been fought over and lost since the history of humankind began. Germanic tribes fought and conquered. African tribes fought and conquered. Indian tribes fought?and conquered. No race of people alive on the earth today lives on the soil which spawned the species. All have been displaced. All have been terrorized. The blood of all races has been spilled by invaders at some point in their ancestry. Indeed, long ago we were all one race, so all wars of conquest are civil. But the people who perpetrated those invasions are gone. Their sins died with them. The only blood on our hands is the blood we have spilled ourselves. - - - - - - - - - - A plea to all of you: look within yourselves and realize that what FEELS good is not necessarily what IS good. You must take a deep breath and realize that you are being used by people who hate this country and all that it stands for. Their anti-American words are not empty threats, they are promises of things to come. This is not a game. Denouncing America and supporting our enemies may make you feel like a good person, but one day you may look around and see that your country has disappeared. America, which I know deep in your heart you love, will be a memory, and your world will have transformed around you. You will then learn that your words of anti-Americanism were not just words, they were the voices of those who hate you, and you became their willing accomplice because you could not forgive yourself for sins which were never yours. Then, there will be nowhere in the world to turn for hope, for hope's last beacon will have been doused. Do not look to the rest of the world for justification. Other countries have never understood us. Even when we existed as colonies, Americans were regarded as vastly different from the Europeans. We were more rugged, less pretentious, and more driven than they. Only the bold and brave came to America because it was never an easy choice. Our European ancestors couldn't just walk across the border of Mexico and become Americans. They had to face the ocean which until very recently they had believed stretched on forever, sail into the unkown toward an uncharted land, risk disease and hunger, and once there they had no idea what to expect. Not only does the decision to do something so bold require one to be an extraordinary person, but the act itself transforms the spirit. The kind of people who took that risk and survived were the people who molded the essence of the American spirit. They passed their values down to all the subsequent generations. It made America a nation of fundamentally different people, whom the rest of the world still does not understand. That spirit still lives today in many of us, though the haters of America would implore us to forget it. In the past, the proud immigrant tradition required a similar sacrifice for entry. The people who packed themselves into ships and made for Ellis Island took the same kind of risk the colonists took. They could be turned away for any number of reasons, but yet they came. When they arrived, they lived as Americans, learned English, fought in our wars, and waved our flag. They knew that America was not the land, it was the culture. It was the willingness to risk all for a better tomorrow. They didn't come here simply to live within the borders. They immigrated to be a part of the American culture, a culture unique in the world to this day...a culture which is being threatened from all angles, even by our own countrymen and our own corrupt politicians. You must understand that the wave of illegal immigrants is a threat to ALL of this. The modern illegal immigrant has taken relatively little risk to come here. Once here, they have no respect for the culture that makes one an American, the culture that makes America America. They give our culture no respect because we have not required it of them. It is a fatal mistake. Foreigners can indeed become Americans in the truest sense, even if they are born in another nation. Someone who truly wants to be an American badly enough to deserve it will take the legal route. If we require nothing of our immigrants, they will give nothing. If they make no sacrifice, they will miss the most important lesson inherent in becoming an American: sacrifice is the key to prosperity. It is a truism that many of our own countrymen and women have forgotten. - - - - - - - - The United States, for all of its faults, is still a nation of good people and a culture which, since its inception more than 200 years ago, has propelled the world forward. Our government was the first to be born of rational thought instead of feudal subjugation. The United States lives with unprecedented levels of freedom and prosperity. We should not apologize for that. And we should not hate ourselves for it. It is available to all who make the sacrifices that we have made and do the things we have done. Others in the world will not understand us. And now that we no longer have to stand between them and Nazi Germany or the USSR, they have no reason to be nice to us. They used us for our nuclear parasol, and now that the sun is out, they have tossed us away. That?s not our fault either. My last words are these: most of the illegal immigrants are not truly Americans. In your hearts you know this. Admitting that it is true does not make you a bad person. Save your country. Save yourselves. As much as I hate to say it, protesting in front of Vicente Fox’s house probably wouldn’t work.

This is what America is about. CITIZENS have the right to free speech. Illegal immigrants think they have that right and openly flaunt their contempt for our nation's laws. They are so armed with a false sense of entitlement, that they have no shame in outing themselves in silly third-world style "marches" so they can get face time on national TV. The funny thing is most of the signs displayed were in English, a language most of the illegals don't read nor understand. I saw footage of many of the signs being held upside down. We all know that racist organizations like Voz de Aztlan, MECHA, MEXICA, LULAC, MALDEF, La Raza and many others including CASA of Maryland were behind these "marches" . The American public wasn't fooled. Que estupidos. To think they were going to garner sympathy. Ha. Ha. Jess complains about the content of this website. This is what America is about.

Your statement that illegal immigrants are poor therefore their neighborhoods are trashy and dirty is party true. Yes they are poor because they are unskilled and uneducated but that should not be an excuse for dirty. Can you name the 3 main ingredients that make a thrid world country??poor, uneducated and unskilled. A country cannot thrive as long as there are millions who are willing to work for poverty wages. It cheapens the entire labor force and before long everybody is poor and then we will end up like Mexico..a corrupt rich government and the peasants that serve them. If your people really want to impress me, then they should all stand up and wave the Mexican flag and shout insults in front of President Fox?s House and demand he get off his butt and do something about the poverty in his country. Instead he criticizes the disgraceful way we treat the citizens he doesn't want. Why don?t they boycott Mexico?. I bet your people could make a tremendous difference if they tried. Fox isn?t going to turn the machine guns on anybody with the whole world watching. It is odd that I never hear any poor Mexicans talking about how disgracefully the Mexican government has treated them. No, just spits at us because we don?t want the responsibility either. So here lies the dilemma. Are illegal immigrants loyal to Mexico or to the United States? Speaking of loyalty, did you hear Bush say he was going to increase the wages of these newly legalized citizens to a living wage? I didn?t either. ?.and the snake beguiled Eve. I also have to respond to your communist comment. If you look at the flyer for the May 1 boycott, there are all kinds of Communist and Socialist organizations and governments backing this Spot. That is flying in the face of sovreignty. Sovreignty means you cannot interfere with how I do business. So you explain to me how it is any of the International Socialists or the Revolutionary Communists' business what goes on in this country. You say there are at most just a couple of communists or bad apples?I say, the sponsor list reads like the Socialist and Communist Who's Who. Ashlyn there must be one law for all, one national ideology, one national allegiance. We protest the disrespect of these things that we depend on... our Constitution, our Democracy and our Flag. This is still America and we are just fighting to keep it America. Ashlyn, you may not come back to this post, but in case you do, let me respond to a couple of your comments.

As 27% of all drywall in this country is now done by illegals, I have to remind myself every day that I?m doing a job that an American won?t do. Illegal labor has so flooded out the Portland Metro market that as of two years ago the wages had been forced down to below 1990 levels ? not inflation adjusted ? absolute dollar terms. The percentages for illegal takeover are high for the other trades as well (I refuse to drop off the word ?illegal?. I think it's an insult to real immigrants if we do.) We as a nation are in the beginning stages of losing most of our construction industry to people who break the law, and jump in line in front of others to get here. Not only are many here illegally, many are working illegally as well: no license and bond, no worker?s comp, no valid SS number, a U.S. tax return is iffy, and much of the money goes home, usually meaning Mexico. According to BOLI only 13% of illegals do agricultural work, meaning the other 87% have moved on to bigger and better things ? including taking over the construction trades. The presence of illegals has little impact to the consumer on the final price of the house - most of the cost comes from land and material, and contractors pocket the difference anyway- but it has huge impact on American workers. I've also been told by more than one Mexican on a construction site that he can build the same house back home for 20K. Forget leaving everything behind for freedom's call. Illegals are almost all economic refugees, with many of them simply taking advantage of the wage and cost-of-living differential. The takeover is becoming so massive that it is difficult to even find English - speaking construction workers on most of Portland?s jobsites. I worked for six months as a sales rep for a building materials supplier. Upon making sales calls to construction sites, my first order of business was to locate someone who understood even basic English. Out of 50-100 workers on the site I often couldn?t find one. To conduct business in construction in Oregon, Spanish may now actually be more valuable than English. What adds to the infuriation is that Mexico maintains for itself some of the most stringent immigration policy in the western hemisphere. Non-citizens are not allowed to demonstrate in Mexico, as we have seen in our own streets during the last few weeks. Mexico keeps its military on its southern border and guards vigilantly against illegal riff raff from Central and South America. Visitors who overstay their visa are subject to arrest, and even Mexican citizens, if foreign born, are not allowed to hold public office, be officers in the military, or be clergy members. One of Mexico?s largest economic sectors consists of wages being shipped home from workers in America, most of whom are (here comes the word again) illegals. I would find it difficult to maintain national pride when my county?s biggest money maker consists of having citizens force the borders of a neighboring country, suppress labor markets there, and ship the money home. I?m not slamming individual illegal aliens ? I would probably do the same if in their situation. I?m simply recognizing that, economically, Mexico has become the globe?s biggest parasite. What we have seen in these street protests by mostly illegal Mexicans is unprecedented in American immigration history. Never before have we seen ?immigrants? fly their national flag down our streets, fly the American flag upside down and chant, ? a race united can never be defeated?. I wonder what it would be called if some of my white friends did the same. I really wonder what would happen if they tried it in Mexico. Evidently, being the economic underdog makes every hypocrisy justified. American immigration law is not unreasonable or racist ? and even if enforced is much less restrictive than Mexico?s laws, which border on the xenophobic. What is truly racist is demanding that one and only one country on this globe have no right to control its own borders, deal with a massive illegal immigration problem, and know who is in its country post ? 911. Illegals aren?t just breaking American law, they are breaking universal laws that are usual and customary to every nation on this planet. I refuse to suffer from white guilt despite every effort of college professors to inculcate it. Hundreds of thousands of people immigrated to this country last year through proper channels. Most of them were non-white. Yet not a word has ever been uttered about slowing or stopping real immigrants. The charge of racism is a cheap shot, and the tool of those who have no better argument than to spit out the R-word more reflexively than Oregon's governor Ted FoolandCostMe dreaming of a sales tax. This current wave of immigration differs historically from all others in four ways: 1) it?s mostly illegal, 2) it?s monolithically and massively Hispanic, meaning there is little racial diversity among current immigrants, 3) it?s becoming resistant to integration into American culture (parents in Woodburn, OR have to actually take Spanish translators to their PTA meetings), and 4) these new ?immigrants? are quite demanding. The Statue of Liberty inscription ?Give me your huddled masses yearning to breathe free? should be rewritten in favor of, ?just walk in and state your demands?. I would use a different word than immigration: how about neo ? colonization? Meanwhile the American people are being sold out. Sold by a Democratic Party that sees potential future votes. Sold by Republicans and corporate America who see cheap labor. Sold by the Catholic Church that sees new members. Sold by a Mexican government protecting one of its biggest industries. I am a drywall subcontractor, which means I?m working in the number one trade/profession for illegal alien takeover. As 27% of all drywall in this country is now done by illegals, I have to remind myself every day that I?m doing a job that an American won?t do. Illegal labor has so flooded out the Portland Metro market that as of two years ago the wages had been forced down to below 1990 levels ? not inflation adjusted ? absolute dollar terms. The percentages for illegal takeover are high for the other trades as well (I refuse to drop off the word ?illegal?. I think it’s an insult to real immigrants if we do.) We as a nation are in the beginning stages of losing most of our construction industry to people who break the law, and jump in line in front of others to get here.
