I think Roy does a great job considering how unbalanced the playing field is on MSNBC.
I would have said that some illegal aliens do come to America to commit crimes, get welfare, free health care, and education along with the jobs they take.

Thank You BearFlag. It was the honesty that I was looking for. Then I hear Roy's statements and think about Ron Paul's grade and cannot but help to see a bit of hypocrisy?
The statement,
'Hey look, no one in Washington or congress believes we can deport millions of illegals.'
When Ron Paul said something of that sort, he was lambasted. And his grade was affected?
State's rights? The other magnet, anchors. Ending benefits to illegals. No credit there for Ron Paul?
If we are going to start laying cards on the table...........?
Well, I think Roy chooses to fight it at the federal level rather than the state level. I agree he is .misguided, but I think we can disagree with tactics while not thinking he has gone OBL.Quote:

I may not be the brightest bulb in the pack, but, I know you can articulate in fine order state's rights v federal responsibilities concerning immigration issues.
I still smell blood!

I got into a heated discussion with him on a radio program about 6 months ago. I called him out because he was saying this crap and told me that a huge percentage of mexicans have gone home and it is less and less of an issue every day. He also said that illegals don't recieve direct government handouts. I completely went off on him.
He is either NUTS. Paid off. Or... most likely scared to death of the government mafia complex.
Illegals may come for the jobs, however, their dependents come along with them and are soon collecting taxpayer funded benefits.
