Yes they are. Many cities are declaring themselves "sanctuary
cities" were the police and judges are instructed not to ask about
immigration status.
George Bush is dangling amnesty for prior tax evasion and automatic
citizenship as a reward for breaking the law and coming here
illegally. Sure sounds like he is encourging them to enter the
country illegally to me.

Agreed. When can we start?

Semantics. Under NJ Law, drunk driving is not a felony so it is not
designated as a crime. It's still "illegal." So is being here
against the immigration laws.

Anchor babies? If so, that's a huge loophole in our immigration
laws that needs to close.

Me too, but the President isn't offering me amnesty for not paying
my income taxes.

Agreed. A certain political party argued in the 1860's to keep
slavery for economic reasons. Now both parties are trying to keep a
permenant, low wage slave class here too, at the expense of working
class Blacks who can't ask for a living wage.
Many of the illegal Mexicans aren't intrested in a living wage -
they live 30 in a house, send the money back to Mexico and retire
there in a few years because the exchange rate is so favorable.
Don't take my word for it. Read up on Cesar Chaves, a left wing
hero who organized the fruit laborers in California. He was a
constant fighter against illegal immigration from Mexico because it
allowed employers to not pay a living wage to American workers.
Can't we learn from our own recent history?

The unwillingness to assimilate is their problem, not mine.

I know a nice town in Nevada you can live in.
