I don't care what your opinions are about immigration reform, but we need to secure our borders. We've needed to for decades. I used to live in Texas. It's so wrong that almost every sign or advertisement has to be written in both English and Spanish. We have so many illegals that markets have adapted to them! I'm cool with people wanting to be American, but illegals don't. They want to be what they were and get American freebies. I can't support that.

Hey, dude? Pick up a goddamn history book, because Hispanic culture has permeated Texas for far longer than America has - and considering the upcoming Fourth of July, I don't think displaying your heritage means you don't want to be American.

I am baffled by how you are able to act like you know the thought process that leads a person to move from a developing or third-world country into a developed one. What led you to such a simplistic yet vague generalization of literal millions of people? What does 'freebies' even mean?

There are many other individuals, also Republicans, who have the same beliefs you do about immigrants, and they're one of the vast multitude of reasons why Republicans are in such a lovely situation right now. You're not helping.

In all seriousness, you could probably find polls saying this about every president since WW2.

For some reason, it's harder for people to blame faces that are dead or retired. I think it's because doing so comes with the implication that humanity's actions have long-term consequences, and that can be uncomfortable in a lot of ways. Like other posters are saying, the fact that GWB is still so reviled even after six years is very telling.

i love how the op just ran off

cant tell if it was poes law in effect or just fakeposting

If it's a fakepost, it's pretty authentically worded. I've heard my dad say the exact same things, except for the bilingual sign tirade, which is almost baffling in its idiocy

'A global market following cross-cultural marketing? THIS IS DISGUSTING'

With the help of the OP I'm now prepared to admit it on the somethingawful forums. I do *not* support the political triangulation or ideology of Nobel Peace Prize winner, Barack Hussein Obama. Thank you for giving hope those of us who have struggled for so long to find our voice.

Have you been to the Democrat killing fields?

Haha seriously, what is this from?

A Public Policy Polling Louisiana Poll from August 2013, apparently

If it helps, 37% of them may have all had alzheimers

We should also just invade Mexico for "breathing room".

I don't know if the smog would be conducive to that, at least in Mexico City.

Smog is just the free air of a place safe from the EPA's reign of terror.

I am inhaling a tank of sulfur dioxide right now, just to teach them a lesson.
