		<description>Apparently som folks think they are above the law.  Sb, I blogged about your post and agree that we need to make some changes but that we must uphold the laws we have now.

Just wanting what others have is not a sufficient reason to break the law.  The Mexican government actually helps their people break into our country. It's a silent invasion.  No way should we reward this outrageous behavior. Mexico is responsible for providing for it's citizens.  We are not.  We have enough trouble spreading our resources across all of our legal citizens, who actually put into the system, and deserve it.  

The US gives TONS of money to Mexico.  However because Mexico is so corrupt, it does not filter down to the lives of its citizenry.  We can't do everything.  The US is the most generous country in the world.  We have bleeding hearts and open wallets for everyone.  Interestingly, it does not often appear to be appreciated. And yet we still fork it over with a smile.

A father who just wants to be a pal to his son and never sets limits, will have a spoiled brat for a child.  We have to set limits.  Limits to our generosity and patience.  Illegal is criminal.  Period.</description>

		<description>Again, Ryan, it's sad to be accused of dropping my humanity because I believe in following the law.  If the immigration laws are too strict and time-consuming, then we need to change them - not pardon the people who have broken them. The Mexican people need to do something about their own country so that it won't be so poor and oppressive that they can't live there.

And, I said nothing of holding Christian ways above other religions.  We simply should not deny our Christian heritage by trying to revise our history.

Your post was a perfect example of the name-calling that clouds the issues.

Unfortunately, in a situation such as the war in Iraq, political support and patriotism are undeniable tied together.  Each protest gives the radical Muslims more courage and determination to battle us.  They know that a house divided cannot stand.  I believe the war would have been over - and won - already had we not had the division within our own country.</description>

		<description>As far as immigration goes, those wrong people see the reality of the situation:

A multi-year legal immigration waiting list

Poverty and hopelessness driving them to opportunity

A better place for their children

It's so easy to drop your humanity and hide behind the laws and rules that make you have something other people want.

I also think we should hang onto our Puritan and Quaker roots more specifically and make sure we hold their ways above those sacriligious Catholics, Mormons, Jews, Athiests, and those damn Indians we stole the whole continent from.

I have respect for the president also and don't disagree that he is the elected office holder, however, I'm still pissed that he engaged our military forces in Nation Building (effectively in a civil war, no less), completely dropped conservatism in favor of high spending, and has no ability to acknowledge mistakes his administration has made.  

Perhaps those who protest the war are just as concerned about the U.S. Soldiers dying that they don't percieve to be justified by a free Iraq that they want to do something about it.  I would hope the troops would see that those people are more concerned with their well-being and not the other sides attempt to tie patriotism with political support.  That just opens the door to absolute power.

Other than that, nice blog.  In off of B.E. and looking for someone to vent on.  Feel free to come to my blog and dispute anything I've scribbled.</description>
