Thread: Irish politician says illegal Irish "entitled" to

By the way I think Mr Ahearn was very wrong to suggest that Irish people are "entitled" to anything . Any Irish person that I know who have taken part in immigration rallies are not demanding anything they are pleading with America to let them stay. Had enuf I hear what your saying, I work 3 jobs , pay taxes. But come on don,t be so narrow minded ,I think there are plenty of Americans with no health insurance . I don,t think every drunk driver on the road is an illegal alien, do you?

You pay taxes because your legal. I'm taking you at your word.

I must say that I'm very sad that you left Ireland to come to America because American would prefer to open her arms to LEGAL IMMIGRANTS that respect our laws. Emma, you don't respect our laws and that sadly doesn't make a good American.

However, what I will tell you is that you will not be allowed on these boards spewing YOUR HATRED or INSULTING THE AMERICAN POSTERS as you did in your post.

If you would like to pitch in and STOP ILLEGALS from destroying our country, we welcome you. If not....time to go.

Yes hadenuf . I,m still here. as I said I am a LEGAL alien. But people like you definately make me wonder why sometimes, thankfully my good experiences with American people have far outweighed the bad. I know you don,t represent the opinions of all.

Oh yes she does, Emma !! She most definitely does !!

Well I guess its time to go then. If I,m not on your side my opinion is worth nothing. I feel sad for you all, but if you want to continue to hate and the majority of the posters are with you then what can I say , I won,t post anymore. Good luck!

Sure there are Emma. Know what? I've been one of them. Know what else? Before my son could have surgery, I had to come up with half the money in advance and pay the rest on time.

Of course they're not Emma. We've got more than our share of drunk drivers. BUT every person killed by an illegal would be alive today if that illegal had stayed home.

Thank you, Emma. With a President like George Bush, we need all the good luck we can get. What we could really use would be a pot of gold. Maybe we can find some in Mexico near all that oil.
Bye Bye, now. Take care.

Hmmm, you have a POINT, GEOFF? If so, spill it please.

Spill what?
I have not investigated but I am going to assume that in the time of my parent's parents, there was no way to "sneak in" and still assimilate. My grandparents DID assimilate and that is good enough for me. They assimilated enough to have great children such as my Mom and Dad who had great kids such as myself, who believes that America is the greatest country on Earth.

BB, do I need to bring you some blood pressure medication?

Just curious, Geoff about your avatar. What kind of a plane is that? I love planes and used to be a flight attendant. Do you know the name of that one ? We recently went to the Air and Sea show and it was awsome.
I've never seen our military planes in action like that. If you like planes you should go to an air show sometime too, you would probably like it.
