They are illegal immigrants not "undocumented."

They need to be deported, and American agribusiness just needs to live with a higher cost of production from using legal labor.

That said, we also need to do something to make Mexico less of a hellhole so its citizens won't risk everything to come here. A good start would be decriminalizing marijuana to cut off the oxygen of the Mexican drug cartels.
- cut the funding of criminals in both Mexico and the US
- cut our enforcement costs
- legalize and tax it -- revenue from both buyers and producers, with jobs for American growers

... not that any of this will happen while the left coddles illegals for votes and the right wants them here for cheap labor and their maids and gardeners. The drug law enforcement industry also is making too much off of the war on drugs to let it end.

We should legalize all drugs, then use our "elite forces" to take out every single drug cartel member.

He is from the voter suppression camp...like killing ACORN and making it harder for Americans to vote ESPECIALLY the ones who are most likely apt to vote Democratic.

Why does anyone need help voting in the US? One just needs to register and show up with ID at the proper polling station.

As long as you can get your votes, you don't care where the come from, do you: illegals, dead people, multiple votes, dogs, etc.

It's not that they need help in voting it is the Repugs are putting into place laws that make it much more difficult to vote like in my State.

1. obama has deported more people then bush

2. this allows ice to focus on the hardened criminals with the money they have. You want to fund removing millions of people from the country? After all is said and done its $24000 per person.

Funny I've had to show my voter registration card and ID to vote when I lived in Virginia and now in Texas.

I see no issue with this as it ensures that the voter is registered and actually the person that is registered to vote.

That's donating not FORMING also...when did a fucking Repug like yourself condone any links from the Communist Huffington Post?

So donating massive amounts to various PACs, is seen as better than just having your own? lol, its all the same in the end.


I am not a Republican, I disagree with Republicans on just about every social issue. As a matter of fact, there are few things I hate more than an evangelical christian conservative. You are assuming things, and we all know what assuming does.

Both of which are red states and have policies like that because it does indeed disenfranchise poorer voters who tend to vote Democrat. There's no evidence of vote fraud, that excuse is a scare tactic because they know what the actual effect will be, fewer democrat voters are able to vote.

How does requiring an ID to verify the voter disenfranchise poor people?
