So would I.

You know I have never quite understood why they are called illegal or undocumented "immigrants'. If someone steals into our house and occupies the spare bedroom are they illegal or undocumented "guests"?

That lady is a breath of fresh air. The situation seems so simple to me, if you want to be in the US, you have to have your papers in order. It's like that everywhere.

Good find, Grumpy.

I agree with her, here's a on video response to Mexico's President Calderon's lecturing the USA on our immigration policies.

Except for when the boats landed. Manifest Destiny seemed to work, then...

Well, it was/is. In a variety of totalitarian states...

Have you ever wished that your ancestors had shot everyone as they were getting off of the boat?

I'm actually being curious as opposed to being a wise ass.

I always thought it would have been better if Plymouth Rock had landed on the Pilgrims.

Aww, chit, Rob...Good 'Un ! (grin)...I wonder what the Pilgrims were REALLY like ?!? Were they a bunch of pious, tight-arsed humorless yahoos in funny hats like we've all been led to believe ?

I thought they stopped there because they were running out of beer.

Saw that on some teevee show.

I always stopped off when I was running out of beer.
