And on Thinkprogress goes, tying this to their agenda to destroy talk radio. What ever happened to the 1st amendment?- DaveV, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12It has become "Only speech we agree with should be free."
- mcm297, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4She should be pushing for more pork spending to resuscitate"Air America."
- BigManOnCampus, on 10/11/2007, -1/+20haha, Pelosi is so out of touch. The House just two years ago passed something that would have all-but-kicked every illegal out of the country. American's don't want being an American cheapened any more by rampant illegal immigration. It's just a fact. I'm amazed the senate bill went as far as it did.

- jcm267, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6That's the state of nature. The native americans all fought amongst each other, stealing each other's land and women. People across the world have been conquering one another since the beginning of time. We're lucky to live in the times that we live in.

- SassyGurl, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Surprised the bill went as far as it did? Don't forget, it wasn't only the Democrats who backed it...despite opposition from most Americans, Bush was also pushing for its passage.

- DaveV, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23Shouldn't Pelosi be more concerned with American citizens that illegal aliens?
- lickmylovepump, on 10/11/2007, -0/+17Why is free speech always 'hate speech' when one disagrees with it?
- Battleloser, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12Pelosi is one of those people that you just want to smack whenever you see that self-righteous smile on her face.
You know the people im talking about, the closeted communists who feel the need to prove how un-racist they are by going completly overboard on issues that shouldn't even be race related. Once they've made their money they then think it's alright to step on the back of their peers to help alleviate their guilt, all the while taking this "my ***** don't stink" attitude towards the world. - WakeUpToFreedom, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Its obvious she has her own agenda and this "hate radio" is clashing with it.

Your husband needs you back in the kitchen!
Love,
The American Public - budgetguitar, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6One rich elderly woman could not possible be exposed to all the illegal immigration issues. Sure, she has her house keeper and the gardner. Maybe she actually met with a group of "undocumented workers" once. Other than that, this is a problem for the insignificant people, not American royalty like her. Go check out Home Depot for a week Nancy. See how you feel then. Better yet, spend a week in San Diego or Orange County CA. Then try to tell me how keeping a group of people in economic slavery is good for anyone other than big businesses.
- jcm267, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Well I dunno if it's economic slavery. At least around here, the illegals get real jobs with their fake SS#s. They get jobs working for cleaning companies and directly for major employers. Bus ridership is through the roof! We're going to subsidize another bus line to some major employers just to take care of them.
And around here it's not just the Mexicans, which are few and farther between. We see a lot more (legal) Puerto Ricans. There are more Haitians and Chinese people than anything else, but we get a ton of immigrants from all over. In this county's largest "city" of 38,000 people, there are 32 languages being spoken at home among its K-8 student population. - Nudar, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5It's easy to love illegal immigration when your only contact with them is the guy mowing your lawn. Where I live, I'm far outnumbered by illegal immigrants who do not know a lick of English.
