		<description>The illegal alien argument comes down to one simple maxim:

Good fences make good neighbors.

Illegal aliens are criminal trespassers, period, and their race or country of origin are irrelevant to their actions.

Deport them when they are found, but don&#039;t sit there and do nothing except amnesty, and don&#039;t go door-ro-door to round them up, either--neither extreme makes sense.

And spend the bailout on the fence, and infrastructure, and enforcement instead!</description>

		<description>Calling an illegal alien an immigrant is like calling a rapist one&#039;s lover, a tresspasser an invited guest, or a bank robber one who has just received a bank loan.  As far as our southwest belonging to Mexico, Mexico stole their land just as we did and must deal with their native peoples as we must deal with our native peoples.  Mexico is turning our southwest into north mexico; after they finish their mission the US will suck as bad as Mexico itself.</description>

I concur with Iris, we must get a handle on this situation.  I hate that people always try to align blacks with illegal immigrants, two very different races, two very different countries (America and Mexico) our history (American) has nothing to do with what is going on today regarding illegal immigration.  Our Government and Corporate America has imported Mexico&#039;s poor and it must be stopped.  We must also put a stop to anchor babies.  I want all people to be deported since the last amnesty (1986) and that includes the anchor babies they have had in the last 30 years as well.</description>

		<description>Barr is getting my support. I placed up my very first polical yard sign. Also have a Barr sticker on my car (and a Ron Paul)

We need to spread his name and tell the voters who don&#039;t like the current two choices that they have options. Barr is my option.</description>

		<description>Five step solution to the immigration nightmare;

1) Build a triple layer, 50 foot high wall along the entire southern border.

2) Task the military to defend it

3) Deploy land mines and snipers along the border

4) Revoke birthright citizenship for all US born children of illegal aliens…retroactively…to 1970

5) Encourage Americans to execute citizens arrest of illegal aliens, especially organizations like the minutemen!

Problem solved!</description>

		<description>Unfortunate that some people are misinformed and yet I am impressed that there are a few who know exactly what they are taliing about.  Funny how the misspellers generally are the ignorant ones.  

If fences don&#039;t work we should not have any around prisons , nuclear plants, electrical stations etc.,  What crap!

As for the Statue of Liberty, the poem that is so often quoted was foisted upon us by another country  some time after the statue was placed on our shores..  IT WAS NEVER A CODE OF CONDUCT FOR AMERICA.

I am 75 and I have no problem with whatever happens to this country or any of you as a result of your being shamed into self-destruction.  I won&#039;t be here!  Too many of you have been fooled into believing it is more important to have FEELINGS than the ability to save yourself.  Hell, even a cockroach fights back when attacked.  Only man has compassion and it is being used by the liberal psychologists to enslave you through your own emotions.  Neat, huh?</description>

		<description>You are right borderraven. It&#039;s just that the fence is so anti-american. I guess the statue of liberty is no longer the symbol of what America is all about - now the symbol is a 700 mile fence.

Sad.

I&#039;ve heard estimates as high as 9 million per mile to build it and with a total cost  estimates of 49 billion. That together with the Iraq and Afghanistan wars is a lot of taxpaying for years to come.

Hey, congress mandated it so it&#039;s all yours and good luck with it.</description>

		<description>Pisces2008, the Berlin wall was built to keep people from leaving Communist rule. The border fortification along the USA-Mexico border are there to keep illegal aliens from sneaking into the USA. There are plenty of open gates along the border for the convenience and safety of migrants flowing both directions. Only a fool would cross the desert during Summer heat.</description>

		<description>Actually, Barr is as wrong as BHO and McCain. His grand schemes are just there to fool you, they have little chance of being enacted in the current environment. And, considering that Barr supports legalization of some kind, they have no chance of being ever enacted. Note that Barr&#039;s page on this doesn&#039;t say anything about current illegal aliens. And, he&#039;s used the same misleading language as BHO and McCain.

Details on the above at my name&#039;s link.

The bottom line is that Barr is trying to fool you.</description>

		<description>And what about this fence that&#039;s being built. Jeez, wasn&#039;t it Ronald Reagan who chastised the Soviets for building the Berlin wall and in exasperation and to the cheers of red blooded Americans exhorted Gorbachev to &quot;tear down this wall.&quot;

That wall represented undemocratic principles like Communism. And the border is beginning to look a lot like Berlin and will look even more so after it&#039;s built. Said Reagan during his speech:

 &quot;Behind me stands a wall that encircles the free sectors of this city, part of a vast system of barriers that divides the entire continent of Europe. From the Baltic, south, those barriers cut across Germany in a gash of barbed wire, concrete, dog runs, and guard towers. Farther south, there may be no visible, no obvious wall. But there remain armed guards and checkpoints all the same--still a restriction on the right to travel, still an instrument to impose upon ordinary men and women the will of a totalitarian state&quot;

Be careful what you give up in the name of security, it could very well your liberty under the veil of patriotism.
