What homeland security is doing about illegal immigration and drug smuggling is just a band aid. If they were serious they would stop both and they have the capability. We are involved in two wars and a "mission" and we ran al qaeda out of iraq and out of afghanistan so don't tell me the border is "more" secure than ever and Obama is doing more than any other president in deportation,etc. That is just not enough and not the best we can do. We can send a man to the moon and beyond we sure as hell can secure the border. So secure an ant would not be able to get across. If they really wanted to. some one need to light a fire under Obama's ass and get him moving on this invasion.

SF Student Who Was Scheduled For Deportation Gets Six-Month Reprieve

San Francisco teen who was scheduled to be deported later this month received an Epiphany gift Thursday: a six-month reprieve that will give her lawyers time to build a case for her to stay in the country legally.

Dream Act failed but ilegal aliens students are still allowed to remain here.
That means her family member stay also. Amnesty thorough the back door. If you can stay under the radar for so many years, you are home free.

Well at least they are given a chance to prove their citizenship. I hate for this to happen to my great-grandparents, I'd still be living in Europe, but that would be a good thing.

What a load of horseshit they were shoveling in that story. How does a 20-year-old college student "not know" his legal status? Really? You're 20 years old, and you've never laid eyes on your birth certificate? If you know you weren't born in THIS country, and you know you don't have a Green Card, dontcha think it might occur to you that you're illegal? If he's really that dumb, he's got no business in college, anyway.

As for the primary family in the story, I'm curious as to what possible basis they could think they have to stay. I don't recall Peru being a hotbed of political murders, so I don't see asylum being a question.

American Needs Illegal Immigrants[/B
July 26, 2006

Those who are overly upset by the fact that millions of illegal immigrants are in the country need to consider two facts. Immigrants have traditionally played an important role in the U.S. economy and will be even more important in the future.

Forcing workers who are in the country illegally to leave could create an economic disaster. It would be the equivalent of killing millions of workers.

American Needs Illegal Immigrants

20 million illegal aliens in the country and they have done nothing to contribute to the economy and have not save social security. So why don't we just deport them.

DREAM Act is dead. U.S. needs immigration for economic stimulus
by Robert Sam Siegel
January 4, 2011

The DREAM Act died in 2010 and that is good. But if the Republicans want to be the party of a dynamic U.S. economy then they had better get moving on an immigration fix that will supply the U.S. with a wave of young people for our future workforce. The best source of that future workforce is the countries south of the U.S. border.

WHAT IF 20 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS VACATED AMERICA?

If 20 million illegal aliens returned "home"

Drain on America's economy; taxpayers harmed, employers get rich
Frosty Wooldridge -- What if 20 Million Illegal Aliens Vacated America?

The economy would recover because jobs will be freeed for 14 million unemployed Americans. Money earned here would be spent here, going back into our economy instead of Mexico. The money saved in education, healhtcare, welfare and law enforcement would balance the budget and pay down the deficit.

Illegal Immigration Is Not a Civil Right

By Ian de Silva
Human Events
Posted Apr 21, 2006

Liberalism's delusions have reached their most ridiculous extreme in the protests by illegal aliens. It was ridiculous enough that American liberals thought they were entitled to things that other Americans had worked for and earned, but now America is being told that illegal aliens -- people who have no right to be here at all -- should have the rights of citizens.

Illegal aliens and their supporters claim this is a civil rights issue. Balderdash. It is a desperate -- and despicable -- attempt to put a moral veneer on morally bankrupt protests. If illegal aliens have a moral claim to civil rights, then a band of burglars marching down the street protesting tough burglary laws also deserve moral respect.

I have to agree 100%. It is not a civil right.

Do Illegal Aliens Have Constitutional Rights?
Courts Have Ruled They Do
By Robert Longley, About.com Guide
Do not let the fact that the term "illegal aliens" does not appear in the U.S. Constitution lead you to believe that its rights and freedoms do not apply to them. The courts have held otherwise.

Often described as a "living document," the Constitution has repeatedly been interpreted by the U.S. Supreme Court, federal appeals courts and Congress in order to address the ever-changing needs and demands of the people. While many argue that "We the People of the United States," refers only to legal citizens, the Supreme Court has consistently disagreed.

In Maryland, black legislators favor immigrants over black Americans
Posted by acorcoran on April 7, 2011

That is the contention of writer and Maryland conservative activist Ron Miller in his opinion piece yesterday on the eve of an important vote in the Maryland legislature. Miller, the author of ‘Sellout: Musings from Uncle Tom’s Porch‘, is commenting on the Maryland legislature’s controversial vote, likely to come today, on a bill to give in-state college tuition rates to illegal aliens.

From Southern Maryland Online, entitled, ‘Black on Black crime in the General Assembly‘:

Before I go down this path, I want to be crystal clear that House Bill 470, which went to the floor of the House of Delegates Tuesday, and proposes to offer in-state tuition to the children of illegal aliens, will adversely affect all Marylanders.

This bill is fiscally irresponsible given our state budget crisis, and it is a violation of the rule of law. It is an affront to all law-abiding Marylanders and the tens of thousands of legal immigrants who followed the rules to come here.

It will contribute further to making Maryland a sanctuary for illegal aliens, who already cost our state $1.4 billion a year in benefits and services for which they didn’t pay and for which they’re not eligible. They will come here in droves from neighboring states like Virginia, which are much less hospitable to them.

That said, I’ve watched with amazement as the black delegation in the Maryland General Assembly applies the thumbscrews to their own constituents in the name of party loyalty. By showing favor to illegal aliens, these legislators are telling black people, who suffer from an 11.2 percent unemployment rate in our state, compared to 6.2 percent for whites and 8.8 percent for Hispanics, that they don’t matter.

Let me break it down for you. Young blacks make up the lion’s share of the black unemployed in Maryland, and in the nation as a whole. The latest figures show that 45.5 percent of black teens in America are unemployed. Their biggest competition for the low-wage, low-skill jobs for which they qualify? Illegal aliens….

Mr. Miller goes on to use information from the Migration Policy Institute (MPI) in which the Institute admits American citizen blacks are disproportionately hurt by immigrant labor. Read on.

But, note that in the quote Mr. Miller used from MPI they could not resist a back-handed slap at American black workers:….employers actually prefer the immigrants, and believe that they have a stronger work ethic and lower rates of turnover out of low-wage jobs.

Just a reminder to readers that although earlier this year the Migration Policy Institute hosted a meeting where a speaker admitted black workers were hurt by immigrant labor, here, they seem to have no qualms about being pro-migration. Indeed that meeting prompted me to look more deeply into the agenda of the Migration Policy Institute and this is what I found—far Left funding from the likes of George Soros and his network. They might put on the patina of being a “nonpartisan and independent” policy outfit but they definitely have an open borders agenda.

Miller ends his good piece with this comment:
“Party trumps race.” I hope all you unemployed young blacks in Maryland remember that as she [State Senator Lisa Gladden] and her colleagues are throwing you under a bus loaded with illegal aliens, and then backing over you.

State budget cuts to be felt by illegal immigrants

As the state Legislature looks for ways to close a $5 billion budget shortfall, lawmakers are eyeing millions in cuts that could reduce or eliminate services used by illegal immigrants. Washington is projected to spend more than $300 million over the next two years on services illegal immigrants can tap, primarily welfare and health care for children, the seriously ill and pregnant women.

Illegal immigrants and state programs

Washington state estimates it will spend more than $300 million over the next two years on services illegal immigrants can tap, not counting K-12 education. A breakdown:

$125 million on health care for 7,400 pregnant women ineligible for Medicaid because they can't prove they are here legally. This program can't be changed, because of federal restrictions.

$73 million on welfare for children. The federal government requires proof that the children are here legally, but not their parents. This program also can't be changed.

$59 million for medical and dental coverage for 25,000 children from low-income families ineligible for Medicaid because they can't prove they are here legally.

$24 million for kidney dialysis and cancer treatment for 1,300 low-income people ineligible for Medicaid because they can't prove they are here legally.

$15 million for in-state tuition subsidies for students who have lived in Washington for at least three years. The state does not check legal status.

$5.6 million in nursing-home care for low-income undocumented residents.

OLYMPIA — As the Legislature looks for ways to close a $5 billion budget shortfall, lawmakers are examining millions in cuts that could reduce or eliminate services used by illegal immigrants.
Lawmakers already have passed a law that effectively limits the state Basic Health Plan for the working poor to legal residents.

67% Say Illegal Aliens Are Major Strain on U.S. Budget
March 4th, 2010

Eighty-three percent (83%) of Republicans and 73% of voters not affiliated with either major party say illegal immigrants are a budget strain. Just 48% of Democrats agree, and nearly as many (40%) disagree. Similarly, 77% of Republicans and 71% of unaffiliated voters see the availability of government money and services as drawing illegal immigrants to America. But only 50% of Democrats share that view. The differences between the Political Class and Mainstream voters are even sharper.

Illegal Immigration Bankrupting America
By Frosty Wooldridge
9-13-7
The San Diego report exposed shocking costs to taxpayers in one county. With California housing three to four million illegals, a 2005 report showed migrants cost state taxpayers $10.2 billion annually. That's money that could have reduced their $38 billion state debt!
In my state of Colorado, we suffer 500,000 illegals at a cost of $1 billion annually. (Source: <http://www.cairco.org>CAIR - Colorado Alliance for Immigration Reform). In excess of $654 million pays for migrant children's education, $38.4 million for medical costs and $20 million for incarceration of convicted illegal felons. Other costs cover uninsured illegals in accidents, school breakfast and lunch programs as well as housing assistance.
Under the radar, most Americans don't realize half of illegal aliens work off the books and pay no taxes. The 2005 Bear Stearns Report showed a loss of $301 billion in uncollected IRS income taxes annually. Additionally, migrants yearly send $60 billion in cash remittances back to home countries-thus bleeding the U.S. treasury. "Anchor babies" create another drain on taxpayers' earnings. The average delivery costs $5,000 to $7,000 depending on location. The real kicker occurs when the child gains free access of education K-12 and free breakfast and lunch program for 13 years of schooling. The costs of one year of school average $7,000.00 and the lunch programs, born by American taxpayers, soar into the billions of dollars.
How many illegal children attend U.S. schools? Estimates top 1.5-2.5 million. Factor in birth costs, medical costs for birth defect children, special needs, schooling and lunch programs. Do the math!

Our elected leaders will be intimidated by and then cave to the La Raza special interests. I have no faith in them.

Our elected leaders seem to think that the illegal alien hordes will vote for the gringo if given enough goodies a taxpayer expense and then citizenship. They have no idea that when the illegals are the majority they will all vote "Raza".

The illegal population residing in New Jersey is estimated at 6.2 percent (New Jersey is not even close to a border state). They are costing the New Jersey taxpayers nearly $2.1 billion per year for education, medical care and incarceration. This estimate is derived from analysis of public expenditures on just three of several areas of expenditures for about 372,000 illegal alien residents. That annual tax burden amounts to about $800 per New Jersey household headed by a native-born resident. Even if sales, income and property taxes that may be collected from illegal immigrants -- estimated at $488 million -- are subtracted from the fiscal outlays, the net costs to New Jersey's taxpayers still amount to nearly $1.6 billion per year.

Yet, taxpayer dollars are being used to promote and EXPAND services to these freeloaders:

The Rutgers Immigration Infrastructure Map, a work in progress since last June, will identify and describe each of the 650-plus social-service agencies in New Jersey that support immigrants, and will map them on a website.

By publicizing the agencies’ work, project organizers hope to help immigrants adapt to their new life, and to determine where more services are needed
