It amazes me how the hispanics can sometimes be the most critical. Shame on you.

I agree with you. I love this country and it pains me to see how much it has changed, and not for the better. We have become so materialistic.

After all, that is what this country is becoming, isn't it. We are all turning into greedy, selfish, bastards acting like a bunch of spolied children. It's all ...

Rewards them for breaking the law? I'm sure at six months old she made a concious decision to cross the border illegally. Did you even read the story?
