This article is absolutely ridiculous. No wonder this columnist only writes on hardliner right wing sites. He really has nothing to say except the mainstream arguments such as they are pouring our over our boarders and destroying our economy. When will they get a new battle cry?
I like his ideaology chart.

“THIS IS A DISGRACE AND A SLAP IN THE FACE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WHEN, PEOPLE FROM OTHER COUNTRIES (ie) MEXICO CAN COME HERE ILLEGALLY AND TAKE JOBS FROM LEGAL CITIZENS AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT IT. ITS NOT FAIR AND NOTHING GOOD WILL COME OF THIS. THINGS ARE GETTING WORSE FOR AMERICANS INSTEAD OF BETTER IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY. OBAMA SHOULD HAVE NEVER MADE PROMISES TO THESE PEOPLE THAT HE KNEW HE COULDN’T KEEP. ITS NOT UP TO HIM AS TO AN AMNESTY BEING PASSED FOR THESE PEOPLE, WHICH IS SOMETHING THEY DON’T DESERVE. THEY’VE GOT ALL OF THE JOBS ALONG WITH ALL OF THE FREEBIES THAT THEY WANT. ITS NO WONDER THEY CAN AFFORD TO EAT THE BEST STEAKS IN THE GROCERY STORE! THIS SUBJECT MAKES ME SICK.”
Found this comment in a forum on this article from the Americans for Legal Immigration PAC website.
First of all, immigrants are most definitely not to blame for the plight our country has gotten itself into. Take that anger to corporate America, where mortgage companies, super-banks, and backwards CEOs have all seemingly found a way to line their pockets with the money of American taxpayers.
And as for steak and freebies, while it may be true that illegal immigrants do take from the “system,” they’re also contributors. Sales, property, income, and social security taxes are all paid by immigrants. That’s not all though. Many Americans have the audacity to complain, saying that illegal immigrants are taking jobs away from citizens and those here legally. All I can say to that is (1) you probably wouldn’t do the job they’re doing anyway, (2) certainly wouldn’t appreciate the salary they’re making as much as they do, and (3) you probably wouldn’t work as hard as they do.
Immigrants come to the United States in search of a better life, and once they find it, are then forced to live in a state of constant fear of deportation. If we had a system where legal immigration was a more viable option, and there were less “illegal” immigrants, would that make those in favor of deportation happy? No.
Save the best steaks for yourself, just throw those here illegally a bone.

This video FAIR (Federation for American Immigration Reform) which is a pro-immigration reform PAC. The ad attempts to discredit supports of anti-immigration reform parties by displaying quotes that pulls the subjects credibility into question.
Unfortunately this ad did not convince me. It is to easily detectable that the facts were pulled due to their outrageous nature. For how professionally the ad was constructed they could have afforded to spend some more time on the idea of ad.
