    They would be great, if they had come here legally. We don't want people here illegally either

    And a "criminal" would never lie......right?
    This is like the Seinfeld bit at customs...."Do you have anything to declare?" "Well, you got me, I didn't expect that question, take me away".

    Sure, they all came legally.
    Of course, an ocean helps with that.

    Not to stray to far off but it's always brought up that Dems want the immigrants for votes. Where are Repubs getting their voters? Where would they be without gerrymandering and suppression? The young aren't seeing things their way.

    There is also plenty of evidence that election machines can be hacked by Russians but that's just a hoax.....right?

    Yeah, no, Canada has citizenship rules too. But hey, I'd be good with providing our illegals with transportation to Canada :D

    "Everywhere is withing walking distance if you have the time" :roflol: Why dontcha walk on over to Puerto Rico and see if you can lend them a hand rebuilding from the hurricane..... (Puerto Rico is an island. I feel the need to mention that now, since at least one leftie on this board didn't know that when the hurricane hit.) Otherwise sure, why don't you hike thru Iceland to get to Europe. You know, if you have the time and all :D

    You guys crack me up :roflol:

    I am more worried about the DNC hacking and rigging the machines. They have been known to rig elections and stuff ballot boxes.

    And yet you offer no proof. The RNC is above such a thing. Believe what you want.

    Not sure what you mean by your first question.

    Not that I’m aware of, I am sure they are looking to see if there is evidence the bosses knowingly hired illegals...which is what makes it a crime.

    Please get back to us, Roy, when you can provide some evidence of this "gerrymandering and suppression" by Republicans (only). Mere pronouncements don't hold any water at all -- especially when the history of the United States has many examples of BOTH parties involved in gerrymandering maneuvers.

    Next, what exactly does "The young aren't seeing things their way" mean...? It is not the least bit clear what you are even talking about.

    If you had even one iota of knowledge of Nazis you would know that the Nazis only liked Germans but could have gotten to tolerate Anglo-Saxons and Northern Europeans and blonde Polish or Baltic children that they could raise as "German" Aryans.

    The English settlers failed to assimilate with the Native Indians so they must have been Liberals as the Founding Fathers must have been since they settles on a compromise about slavery - right!

    How scary thinking that our country was founded by liberals --- oh my!

    I do, actually and that is why I understand the tactics the liberal/progressives today are using and why they resemble the Nazi party of 30's.


    Federalists. Our country was founded by Federalist's that wanted to ratify the Constitution of the United States. It in no way reflects the current government or the aims of Democrats of today. Our Founding Fathers would have considered the Democrats the enemy of the United States and would be more closely aligned to the Republicans, especially that have the Lincoln era.

    If you really understood and new about the rise of Nazism you would know that Hitler and his Nazis got the German population to believe that Jews were stealing the wealth from Germany, Jews were taking jobs away from non Jews. Nazis convinced the Germans that it was the Jews that where destroying Germany and causing unemployment and inflation. That Jews invaded Germany. That Jews were criminals. The Nazis decided the German population between Jews and non Jews.

    The Nazis did not even say that there were any good Jews ad at least Trump said that there were some good Mexicans among those trying to get into the US.

    You ever read the Federalist papers? There were Federalists and non Federalists. The Founding Fathers were not in any mode to force the abolition of slavery so to say that they were in line with Lincoln is folly.
    The Founding Fathers were more in mind to lean towards a weaker federal government and a stronger state system of government. We were also not one nation yet. We did not coalesce into one American nation until after we defeated the rebel separatists during the civil war.
    The works was also diferent back then.

    I would not engage in the foolishness of trying to fit present day political party philosophy into the 18th century or vice versa. That would be as foolish as those who try to claim that Jesus would have been a Republican or a Democrat or a Socialist. Or that Jesus would love SUV's. I think Jesus would have loved to have an SUV to go wonder around the desert. LOL,

    We did not have a strong federal military before the civil war. Remember that we were organized as regiments such as the 2nd Vermont. , the 3rd Michigan, the 1st New York.

    The country was diferent back then and any attempt to fit current political parties into the past is best served as an excercise in fantasy nothing more.

    Oh,
    The first question was about this statement by you
    "With that said, what’s wrong with wanting people to come here that aren’t going to be a drain on tax payers? Why does the left want more people here to simply live off welfare?"
    ICE picked up 600 people and you wonder if their bosses "knowingly" hired illegals? Really? Either they have the worst HR system or someone is very naive.
