50,000 out of 12 million illegal aliens are Irish - what exactly is the story here?

Conservatively, half of the 12 million aliens who are here illegally are hispanic or "latino." The Irish who are illegal are a red herring, a drop in the bucket.

The issue isn't "damn immigrants." It's "damn illegal alliens", and their apologists, journalists like Gregory Rodriguez.

Skin, nationality, ethnicity, genitals, back hair, whatever... are irrelevant factors. All that is relevant is the fact that they are violating U.S. law.

And Don't forget these illegal Irish are usually older people and don't drop 4 Anchor Babies each. I would be willing to bet they pay for their hospital bills and are not gang bangers.

Of course the vast majority of illegal Mexicans are not in gangs, but even if just 2% are, that adds to a couple of hundred thousand.

Id take illegal Irish any day over the indian types we get from Mexican villages for many reasons.

1. They speak english and are better educated.
2. They have kids they can afford, not kids because culture dictates large famlies.
3. They dont live 10 to 15 to a house and trash it.
4. They dont have loud parties and wake up the neighbors.
5. They dont bring in all their extended family from Ireland like Mexicans do from Mexico.
6. They are more than likely to have a high skill or start a business that will employ english speaking Americans.
7. They are less likely to commit a crime.
8. They dont recreate Irish ghettos like Mexicans recreate Mexican barrios.
9. They do their best to fly under the radar.

But at the end of the day all illegals need to get the hell out. Period.

You people are flabby,elitist,whiny & spoiled fools.This country benefits from undocumented workers in that employers can afford to have a staff of 20(being paid 30¢ an hour with zero benefits) as opposed to having a staff of 3 chubby americans who can't live off that.Watch how quickly your local economy collapses--starting a domino effect--as nearly every restaurant in your town gets boarded up after you kick Tito & his amigos out & have fun paying $7 for every individual piece of produce you put in your big, flabby bellies.

One of the reasons our country has done so well in the past is that food has purposely been made cheap for you & your fat family through farming subsidies & our friend, the undocumented worker Miguel,allowing you to buy more vcrs & stereos & tvs to sit on the couch & enjoy while using your bloated sausage-fingers to stuff your swollen,grease-slathered faces with inexpensive cheetos & Natural Ice.30¢ goes a long way south of the border,as does paying employees next to nothing up here.Everybody wins.

Documenting undocumented workers would also reduce the chance of Pedro & his tequila-glugging buddies from doing a hit & run on your precious fat little son Billy,as well as keep us aware of who's coming & going whether or not they've done creepy things in the past &/or how many swineflu-like lesions are covering their salsa-canons-ready to be spread up here.So,in closing,please put down the Shlitz & try objectively studying how an economy actually works before using those funyun-encrusted fingers to type disparaging things about Manny & his hardworking muchachos,fatties.

The "undocumented" Irish have been in NY for many decades.

Differences:

1. They speak, read and write excellent English, for starters.

2. They come here for a while, go back home, come back, go back. They are NOT a welfare community.

3. They are used for a lot of short period skilled trade jobs. Carpentry, electrical, etc.

4. They are all high school graduates, or higher.

5. They are among the most law abiding of any group.

6. They do NOT have children until they are married and can support them.

Even if you want the Irish to stay (as I do), at least pretend you want them deported when arguing with a pro-amnesty type, or else you'll be called a racist.

Again,my jiggly-bottomed friends,without Manny's help,a great deal of the country's cash that would have been spent on Ipods,car payments,diet pills laxatives,insulin,cracked chairs etc,will be going towards stocking your kitchen with all your fat-face yum-yums.We will BECOME Mexico that way.It's symbiotic,like a flower's pollen & the bee,except the bee is a portly constipated cheese vacuum with swollen ankles & throbbing roids.

Documenting & handing out ID's will also help in monitoring & filtering out diseases.Are you really comfortable having an undocumented Carlos empty his hepatitis-riddled guac-launcher all over your emotionally neglected & sizable daughters.The next time you're stuck in line at White Castle that might just happen.So instead of opening that crunch n munch pulverizer you call a mouth to say"Illegal immigrants are bad.Carlos is bad,"open it & say: "Let's document Carlos.Carlos helps me buy cheap doritos to stuff into my fat doughy consumer face."

Daily Horoscope for January 2

Virgo

It's okay to have high expectations, but try to keep in mind that no one can be all things to all people. As the Moon spends one last day in its current sign, it urges you to find a way to recognize others for their strengths, and forgive them their weaknesses. Virgoans' idiosyncrasies must look like strange quirks from the outside as well! Fate ties up the loose ends towards the end of the day.
