Ok! I give up. The Mexicans have won. I propose we the people of the United States of American give willingly all our lands. We should take all our wealth and possessions. Take all of our technology, knowledge, industry and everything of the least value and leave the discarded shell. Then the great Mexican race can collect benefits from themselves and take care of the trash, water, sewers, fuel, power and everything needed to run this land. Who will provide the services they depend on? Who will hire them and pay wages? Who will take care of them when they are sick or injured? Let’s see how long it will be before they are begging us to return so they can leach off of us again.
That's right, blaze. They don't give a damn. They think this land belongs to them. Why would they care any more about this country than they do about their own? But I have to admit this country wouldn't look so good to them if not for the welfare, health care, jobs, money, freebies, etc.

Blaze and Patsy you are right they are very willing to wallow in their own filth. I just wonder how badly they would want to come here with out the promise of work or benefits of any kind.
Mexico has some of the most beautiful beaches and mountains you have seen anywhere. The people who live there, average citizens, who do not sneak across the border and are satisfied with what they have, which sometimes is not much , are very nice people. No they don't have the benefits we have in this country but they make do with what they do have, and believe me even if they don't have much will share it with you. I have been to several different large towns and some much smaller ones and have always been treated well. It is just too bad that their government cannot seem to get it together and get something done in the way of employment for them. Border towns suck they are not a good place for people to live but further into Mexico there are some lovely towns and the people seem to be working and happy with their lives.
It might seem to some that I am for giving away the ship to the ones who don't have anything but that is NOT so. I firmly believe that all illegal persons no matter where they came from should be sent home and apply legally to come to the US.
The first thing that should happen is all the benefits must be cut off to illegals, no more free housing food, medical care and welfare ...NONE. Anchor babies according to the US are US citizens, but according to Mexican Law they are mexican if one or both parents are mexican no matter where that child is born. So the US needs to enforce that Mexican law!!!! There should be sanctions against US employers picking up day laborers, not only are the workers not paying taxes and for benefits but the employers are cheating the government also as they are not paying their share of the workers taxes and SS. Welfare recipients of US origin should be required to do the jobs that are done by the illegals in order to get their welfare money. If it not enough to live on then the government can suppliment their income instead of just handing out all their income for free. I know there are healthy men and women out there who could do a days work but prefer not too especially when given no incentive to do so, and it seems to be SOOOOOOO easy to get free everything.
Well I have to get to work, I should have retired several years ago but with a couple of bad choices I made about retirement I find that SS is not enough to live on and so have to work to provide myself with the day to day necessities.You see, people who have worked all their lives and never asked for anything, don;t get anything even when they need it.
Marine 11: Amen brother wonderful people in the villages and outside the big cities. I have driven all over Mexico and it is definitely beautiful from the beaches to the jungles and most especially the Blue Agave fields in the mountains on the pacific side.

My ancestor at the Alamo never said " I give up ". I won't quit, it will be a fight to the finish for many of us !
Speaking of the Alamo, that flag was taken to Mexico and is still being held there. It's time to return it to it's proper place, let's go get it, it's been waiting far to long to be brought home !
Well, George Bush and congress are going to give up. I understand they are working out the details for a meeting at Appomattox where they will surrender the American flag and a ceremonial sword to el Presidente de Mexico very similar to Lee's surrender to Grant.

Marine 11, I know how you feel about that retirement trouble and bad choices. Wonder if there will be any SS when I file for it. The wife goes for her SS papers next year. The joke around here is that one morning I'll wake up to go to work and be dead. Back to the subject at hand: NO! NO! NO! Never give up!! Pass their damn new law, I do not care, I will fight on !
Hero's died at the Alamo, in the Spanish American War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet Nam and the past and current War in the Middle East....and a few I missed.
American's DON"T Give up, They DON'T Surrender....They fight on. They have a task at hand and no matter how hard, how cold how muddy they Will Persevre and fight the Good Fight.
Time to get back to basics and remenber History.
Keep in mind that while planning the Attack on Pearl Harbor, INJ ADM. Yamamoto stated "if you attack the American Mail Land you will find a rifle behind every Blade of Grass.
Today I went to visit the new World War II Memorial in Washington, DC. I got an unexpected history lesson Because I'm a baby boomer, I was one of the youngest in the crowd. Most were the age of my parents, Veterans of "the greatest war," with their families. It was a beautiful day, and people were smiling and happy to be there. Hundreds of us milled around the memorial, reading the inspiring words of Eisenhower and Truman that are engraved there.
On the Pacific side of the memorial, a group of us gathered to read the words President Roosevelt used to announce the attack on Pearl Harbor: "Yesterday, December 7, 1941-- a date which will live in infamy--the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked".
One elderly woman read the words aloud:
"With confidence in our armed forces, with the abounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph."
But as she read, she was suddenly turned angry. "Wait a minute," she said, "they left out the end of the quote.. They left out the most important part. Roosevelt ended the message with "so help us God."
Her husband said, "You are probably right. We're not supposed to say things like that now."
"I know I'm right," she insisted. "I remember the speech." The two looked dismayed, shook their heads sadly and walked away.
Listening to their conversation, I thought to myself, Well, it has been over 50 years she's probably forgotten."
But she had not forgotten. She was right.
I went home and pulled out the book my book club is reading --- "Flags of Our Fathers" by James Bradley. It's all about the battle at Iwo Jima. I haven't gotten too far in the book. It's tough to read because it's a graphic description of the WWII battles in the Pacific.
But there it was, on page 58. Roosevelt's speech to the nation which ends in " so help us God "
The people who edited out that part of the speech when they engraved it on the memorial c ould have fooled me. I was born after the war.! But they couldn't fool the people who were there. Roosevelt's words are engraved on their hearts.
Now I ask: "WHO GAVE THEM THE RIGHT TO CHANGE THE WORDS OF HISTORY?????????"
Send this around to your friends People need to know before everyone forgets. People today are trying to change the history of America by leaving God out of it, but the truth is, God has been a part of this nation, since the beginning. He still wants to be...and He always will be!
If you agree, pass this on. If not, May God Bless YOU!
YUMA KID They would make an unbelievable mess in no time flat.. We have a "little" city ( with a very large population) called San Luis, Az. They are a joke. They have an election , the new officers screw things up, have funny money problems followed by recalls followed by....well you know it's a never ending circle, but it is a lesson in the abilities of Mexicans to govern, and maybe explains the mess south of the border. Besides, I am not ready to give my country away to those..........fill in your own word. I had a husband who defended this country in WWII in the army in Europe and four children who served in the Navy, two of them in the VietNam fiasco. If we have to have a civil war to reclaim our country, I am not too old to carry a gun. I'd be tempted to start on Congress, however.
Yes, I agree we need to let the Mexicans have what they deserve and that is both barrels in the ass to get them started back to Mexico! We have been plagued with the modern day Vidkin Quisling, by the name of George Bush and both houses of the congress with damned few exceptions are in bed with him adn the other glbalist trash. We have told the traitors no Amnesty they give us the "Compromise" which has triggers to insure border security. That sound like telling the 16 year old cheerleader you won't tell your buddies your nailed her in the backseat of your car!
Now we have been told for the last 21 years "We will secure the borders". Well to quote the dear deceased Clara Peller "Where's the beef!" Now we should ask "Where is the Fence! All 2000 miles of it!" They want us to shut up we want them to put up or get fired!
I know this is a delimma started when Reagan gave the Amnesty to 1.5 million people who later on became 3 mllion. He had the best of intentions at heart. The Democrats used that to undermine the American people by allowing the A.C.L.U. to use the 14th amendment to say that the babys of illegals were citizens. Now no where in that amendment does it say any thng about that.
I am getting tired of the mental fighting against the establishment and their cronies. I am tired of hearing Spanish spoken on our streets and other languages. I am getting to be one tired old veteran who has the fight in him, but I am tired of hearing the lies from both partys the most. I am sick adn tires of peole who refuse to stand up and tell all illegals to go the hell back where they belong!
Pardon this rant, but I refuse to give anything to a Mexican with the exception of my boot up their ass!
It's been a while but I traveled from one end of Mexico to the other and went down into Guatemala and El Salvador. Mexico is a beautiful country and so are the other two. I was treated decently by the common people but couldn't venture out at night because it was too dangerous. The open corruption verges on the "must see to believed variety." I was picked up by the Guatemalan army and escorted to Guatemala City where I paid a $20.00 "fine." Among all the reasons for opposing illegal immigration I have one you will seldom hear. I cannot accept people coming into the country who are unwilling to change their oppressive, corrupt governments. The billions they are sending back should be spent to undermine and overthrow those in control. I have no respect for those who an unwilling to to stand up and fight for their own people. To flee to this country, insult us and our way of life, is despicable. I've fought for this country and will fight for it until I am no more. I don't want any one here who is unwilling to make the sacrifice to change their country of birth but who so insolently tell us to change ours.
"A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defense of custom." Thomas Paine
Never again will I set foot in Mexico! Partly due to my resentment of the illegals, but partly because of the HORROR STORY about medical care there. We give the wetbacks free care. There was a doctor from Eastern Idaho who went on a vacation down there. He had a coronary and ended up in a small town hospital, which was not very good. He was getting worse, begging his wife to get him to Mexico City where there is a very good hospital. They refused to let him leave until his wife raised $20,000.00 or some such figure. She maxed out the credit cards and had to have money wired from relatives in the states. You must bribe anyone who helps you or the paperwork gets "lost" and it cost her WAY more than that. Finally he was taken to the GOOD hospital and his life was saved, but the financial nightmare began again in the second hospital. They will not cooperate with any insurance companies, which may or may not cover you in Mexico anyway. They demand their money now. Why would anybody go there and invite them to treat you that way?
