I'd say its the complete opposite Faulk (even though I know you dont take that stance on it) They take the jobs no one else wants, and take whatever pay they get with the upmost gratitude. They work **** hard for the money they get. anyone one of us that was told to do the same work for the same amount would say "screw you guys, i'm goin home" and wouldnt think twice.

Im not sure what the first part of your post means...but i wholeheartedly agree with the part in bold...

I was trying to say that I think its the opposite of what you said earlier, "i mean are you saying mexicans are naturally lazy and incapable of positively contributing anything?" even though I know you disagree with that. So I was basiclly saying that you WOULD agree with the rest of my post.

I'm not really pro immigration...i just don't think its that huge of a deal...i really think that the current infatuation with it as a political issue is obfuscation of real issues...and its done quite nefariously and deliberate.

I would go so far as to call you a nerd but rather a concerned citizen. I dont completly agree that this is a smokescreen by the govn't but by the media. Its an entire media issue. Nothing too exciting is happening war-wise so they need something else to blow out of proportions. But as a nation, I do agree that we are divergin our eyes from more important issues like the ones you stated earlier.

I agree with you. The media plays a huge roll...but this has been an issue since the republican caucus in Iowa last month..the candidates all gave speeches on the issue...with the exception of McCain..and it has snowballed since then...

And being faced with all the other crap that they cant even reputably spin in a positive light...both the house and senate republicans have turned to this...the media has chosen to cover the story, but they only do so at the prompting of government.

The huge protest also influence the media to cover the issue. However the fact that the media is giving this issue as much (if not more) air time than the documents Fitzgerald just filed in the scooter Libby trial is sickening.

The selective leaking (call it declassification if you want) by the administration of the NIE for purely political reasons...all the while publicly claiming no responcibility...might not be criminal...but is grossly dishonest and speaks volumes to the character of our president. This is a story that while being practically ignored at the moment will stand out in the history books.

At the heart of it is how we were misled into war by a campaign of scare tactics and selective release of information, by an administration determined to make war with Iraq, regardless of the cost or consequences. There was no need to enter Iraq and we were lied to in order to get us into a war based on ideology.

Last election cycle it was gay marrige...

They take issues people instantly have a visceral reaction to and use them against the Dem's successfully just about every time..

Like i said..only thing more pathetic than the administration is the reaction to it by the democrats..
