Default Only in America...

Only in America can a bunch of people illegally enter the country and then hold rallies demanding more "rights" that they were never entitled to in the first place.

500 years from now when history students are asked what led to the downfall of the United States as a superpower, no one will point to the 3,000 soldiers lost in Iraq. No one will talk about Don Imus, Jessie or Al. They will point to the period of time when Mexicans took over our land and our government and turned America into a 3rd world, 3rd rate nation.

For some reason, liberals have no problem allowing this to happen.

yeah......they do have something to do with one another.

Native Americans have basically been wiped out by our american way of life. When they relate stories of their history it goes pretty much like QuiGon predicts it will go for our nation.

somehow the fact that you don't see a connection is odd.

The Jedi is saying that Mexicans are using the system to take over the country...I'm saying that is just like the beads to buy NY...

Yep...liberals did this, alright!

Liberals like George Bush jr and sr, Reagan and the entire Republican-led Congress since 1992 thet did NOTHING along with all the liberal democrats.

Oh well, at least Yoda's half right, which is an improvement!

One in two Mexicans has family in U.S., poll finds

REUTERS

9:56 a.m. April 30, 2007

MEXICO CITY – Almost one in two Mexicans has a family member working in the United States, and a third of those were sent money in the past year, according to a survey published in Mexican daily El Universal Monday.
The poll of 1,000 people showed 45 percent had at least one relative across the border and 61 percent rated the money they send as “very important,” illustrating Mexico's reliance on remittances.

Some 11 million Mexicans in the United States sent home a record $23 billion to their families last year – Mexico's second-biggest source of foreign currency after oil imports, even dwarfing the tourism industry.
Monday's survey showed immigration to the United States, much of it illegal, peaked during the 1990s, after Mexico was battered by an economic crisis.

Eight percent of those polled said they themselves had worked in the United States at some time.

As many as one in two people in Mexico live on less than $5 a day, and a lack of job opportunities prompts thousands to risk their lives crossing the border illegally each year.

Border arrests were down by just under a third in the first few months of this year but more than 150 immigrants have already died trying to cross over, mainly of heat exhaustion.

The United States is building a 700-mile fence along parts of its 2,000-mile border with Mexico and boosting security by adding trucks with infrared cameras, underground sensors that detect footsteps and surveillance drones.
