May it's time for Americans to hold rallies.
With the economy and Illinois budget disaster only time you can see a wide range of elected officials are at immigrant right rallies...

If they want do something about the "issues", they'd learn the language, live as Americans and contribute to the society they so want to benefit from but protest at the same time.

I was thinking the same thing! It's funny how illegals come here and demand rights. Why can't they stay in their great Country and demand rights!

AGREE 1000 x's. They have a lot of nerve.No other nationality got or gets what they have. Did you ever wonder if public aid checks to see if they own a cell phone? Thats a high bill or do they give stamps for that too!!!!

funny you should mention cell phone. Last week I was behind a mexican mother toting 3 kids. She had a cart full of baby food jars & cans of formula. All of this was FREE & paid for with vouchers. While the items were bing rung up she was talking (in spanish of course) on her cell phone. It got me wondering - here I am a tax paying American citizen, We work to pay for our food & would never ask for a handout. My tax dollars are paying for her kids food. These immigrants come to America & quickly learn the system. If they dared to protest in their own country they would be arrested. I agree, if you don't like the way this country is run - GO BACK HOME. We certainly don't need any more freeloaders.

No other nationality? Sooooooooo African Americans do not get any financial help? They don't make a line about 500 people long on Lake St and 26th? Right Mexicans are the problem, I mean they work minimum wage jobs, which take out all the taxes that they take from mine and probably your check as well. So they do have a right to aid. Perhaps whats more appalling is seeing Tyrone rolling into pick up some food stamps sitting on 24 inch rims and a iced out necklace. I wonder what he does for a living?

Everytime I see the start of some of this anti-immigrant nonsense, I know that my nationality is going to suffer an embarassment. I'm a white American. Damn I can't stand rednecks.

Actually the government now gives anyone that is on aid or has a link card a free cell phone and free minutes. How sweet is that?

Daily Horoscope for December 23

Gemini

You're in a very erratic mood today, making you restless, edgy and nervy. It may be almost impossible to settle to anything for long, because, as Mercury slows, you soon lose interest. If life becomes boring you'll want to liven it up in some way and it's likely you'll choose the most disruptive and controversial option you can think of, even though you know this will cause trouble.
