I don't know what's worse. The unstopped tide of illegals flowing over our border......or the planned, deliberate and slow take-over of our country by turning it into a muslim state by shear islamic population take-over and control?

Since you obviously believe that North Korea, China, and Iran have it right, and the USA has it wrong, I suggest that you and all of your like-thinking brethren MOVE THERE IMMEDIATELY! Remember, -- America- Love it or LEAVE it!! While I agree that we need to keep illegal entry down, comparing us as inferior to some of the worst governments in history does not inspire me to be more like them.

If you want to live in a crime free society, it can be as simple as you suggest- Learn by watching others. Iran, China, and N. Korea have virtually no gun violence. They have outlawed all private firearm ownership. There is little opposition to the government. If you are suspected of being anti-government, you are simply whisked away never to be seen again. No one dares to commit a crime, even in the privacy of their own home… Homes are subject to unannounced inspections at any time. Yes, you CAN live in a crime free society… Just get rid of that pesky Constitution and those crime enabling amendments called The Bill of Rights. Our Founders believed that most people are honest and want self determination without heavy government control. Unfortunately, with that level of freedom comes the ability for a few to cheat the system. Ask yourself this- Do you want to give the government more power and reduce our freedoms so that this over inflated scenario cannot happen?

So your answer is to make everything legal so the Government is not controlling in any way? Our founders believed that society could police it's self very well with out overbearing Gov't control,Not anarchy and total lawlessness. But as it sits right now the only laws our Government is interested in enforcing are Tax law and hug the trees and a polar bear laws. You like the way that's workin out so far?

Let me see if I got this right. Are you saying that it's "right" to give all that stuff to an ILLEGAL immigrant? Did you catch the word "ILLEGAL"!?!? I have a suggestion for you and your like- thinking brethren.....next payday, hop on down to the US-Mexican border and wait for dark. As soon as the sun sets, stop the first person you see walking north and give them YOUR paycheck thay YOU worked for. In a couple of weeks do it again...etc, etc. The hussein obama regime would LOVE for us to be set up like N Korea, Iran and/or China. The people have very little, if any, say about anything. The government tells them what to like or dislike, how to "vote" and what they can or can't talk about. That's what the health care debate is all about. It's not about health care, it's about putting the gov't in charge of yet another part of our daily life. Welcome to the Third World, comrade.

Sorry, but no, you didn’t get it right. I posted that I am FOR reducing illegal entry into our country. What I’m against is using draconian laws like you suggested they use in foreign communist or theocracy countries. The idea that the current policies regarding immigration come from the Obama administration are misinformed and short sighted. The Bush administration ignored immigration laws simply because it benefited some of his constituents. If you read my other post, you would see that I’m AGAINST government intrusion of our freedoms, unlike those communist countries you seem to favorably view.

Yo Bobbo, i posted this same riddle 2 weeks ago, i understand part of your rant, Its not the (people) that come to this country to better themselves like our forefathers,its the handouts and rewards that are included to those whom break the law.Canada and other Countries have better boarder control than us, Australia customs will ask how long you are staying and when are you leaving, Here is the problem, if we Military our Mexican boarder whom have been our friends, 'like it or not', 'and as we know all existing presidents Both (REP & DEM) have always closed a blind eye to the problem', I would not want to create Enemy at our southern boarders. We can only blame our Government that is dysfunctional,not because they have just closed their eye, but are now also in their health care Bill earmarking provisions to reward illegal alien's with health care also, Your Right wear can i go to better myself that i am so important to move my family?, as a Independent i think the bottom line of the riddle was 'Recycle Congress' witch to me was the point. BTW i have been self employed 34 years i have never had a unemployment claim ever, oh yeah sure needed it but had be creative you know shovel $hit a few times to feed the family.My family is from Poland so please you wont get me feeling sorry for any racial jokes or pity for lazy dishonest immigrants.

A comparison of the border crossing enforcement, nothing more. Not sure how it degraded into the rest. If just comparing the border issue, I'd like to see our gov't. come down hard on that...but you know it never will regardless of party affiliation.
Oh well, guess I'll go do something constructive and iron a shirt for tomorrow. Going to join my old office mates in their annual Christmas luncheon, should be fun since I've not been back for the last couple years. I worked past 65 and been retired a few years since, I miss a small handful is all but still enjoy finding out just how things are going. It's a gov't. office so you know procedures have changed at least once a year in the last six.

You seem to be dancing around the the mention of Germany and England in bashfulbobs's original post. Are they included in the " draconian laws like you suggested they use in foreign communist or theocracy countries." Because your Pal Obama is proposing ALOT of policy not too different than that of those countries...except the enforcement of existing immigration law ! I guess it is OK to use their socialist ideas but the rest is communist trash ? If we should leave because we disagree with current administrations direction...why the hell didn't you leave when the election got stolen from crybaby Al Gore ? It's not to late...you can go now in protest of those 8 years.  And exactly what freedoms are you against the government intrusion upon? Smuggling dirty bombs or Aliens? Sounds like you may be against bashful's 1st amendment also,so what amendments to the constitution will we keep when you are king?

I got the original post, "recycle congress". Did you see the spending bill they just approved? They just don't get it or do they? Bernarke is up for re-appointment as Chair of the Fed. He was on the new last night sitting in front of a backround or CFR promo crap. Who controls it all? Do an extensive search on the CFR and you might be supprised, maybe not.

Well, now....WHERE in my original post did I suggest we use another countries laws? I was simply posting something I got in an e-mail. As far as I know it's completely true....at least mostly true. Also, it's REALLY getting old hearing the whiner's blaming Bush for everything. Bush, Clinton, Bush, Sr Reagan etc, etc are irrelevant because they are in the past. Why don't we sit around and bad mouth Kennedy and LBJ for "starting" the Vietnam "conflict"? Because there's nothing to be gained by it. Why not work on the illegal immigrant problem NOW? And where in my post did I say I favored any communist country over the USA? You're the one that don't like it here because we can still talk about God in public. Maybe you'd be happier in Singapore?

Actually, Vietnam goes back into the late 1940's. We were sending our military advisors in there as early as 1956 (Eisenhower). Troops were deployed in September 1959, before Kennedy was elected. Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon all acellerated the conflict, unsuccessfully.

I knew it was a work in progress before the Gulf of Tonkin thing.
