You are, of course, corect, Toni and those employers should be put in the express lane of the catapult line because their disregard for the laws of our country puts a burden on the taxpayers, overwhelms our social services, and defies common decency.

I guess the real point I was trying to make is we can't blame illegal immigraton for all of our problems. We need to start using common sense and common decency when dealing with each other.

Common sense? Common decency?? Why Don, you're an old hippie too!

You are absolutely rght, Ronnie - what matters is the character of people, not where they come from or the color of their skin. The dead weight in our society should be, but too often aren't, ashamed of themselves.

Yeah, but yu left out the mot imortant part - the real badge ofcourage from "the other side" - I'm a grumpy old hippie! LOL!

How could I forget Chuckie's great characterization of us. So much classier than calling us insurgents!

On the thread of human decency - and not trying to be political in any way - I thought I'd give you some example of how far from that some of us have gotten. Following are real live, swear he said 'em statements from my neighbor:
1. We're Americans. We should be allowed to torture anyone we want.
2. There are no poor people; there are only people who don't try hard enough.
3. Why should the government give any money to the Katrina victims? If they were too stupid to get out of the way, that's their problem.
4. Of course I care about the environment - my environment. And those kooks from the Sierra Club are trying to stop decent businessmen from making money.
5. We have the best health care system in the world. If people can't afford it, they have only themselves to blame.
6. Hillary Clinton is a communist.

P.S. I know #6 was political; I just thought it drives home that the guy isn't only lacking in common decency, he's also an idiot.

Exactly!! Like I said I Build,and we are a very important industry,if it wasen't for us no buildings would be built, I have great respect for the workin man,no matter what color he is,And the mexician work force is awesome, but they are being exploited ,and paid chickin feed cause they are on the most part illeagal,But what if they get hurt on the job they are out of luck cause they are illeagal and cain't do anything about it They are being robbed and I for one don't like it!!they need to have the same rights as any other worker and they deserve it simple as that!!

Scary eh? Truthfully, you'd think he was the nicest guy in the world if you never heard his opinions on world affairs. Goes to church every Sunday, puts up a Nativity scene every Christmas and can't for the life of him see that those thoughts are the farthest thing from Christian imaginable.

Sheesh, at least Archie was funny!

Unfortunately, there are hypocrites everywhere, and some are better than others at hiding their true feelings.

Ain't it the truth.
