Here are some thoughts to consider as the Presidential campaign gets into full swing. Which of the candidates will help stop this uncontrolled pillage of America by illegal aliens?


Illegal Aliens Cause Massive Cuts For US Seniors
December 4, 2007

I hope the following 14 reasons are forwarded over and over again until they are read so many times that the reader gets sick of reading them. I have included the URL's for verification of the following facts:
1. $11 Billion to $22 billion is spent on welfare to illegal aliens each year. http://tinyurl.com/zob77
2. $2.2 Billion dollars a year is spent on food assistance programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches for illegal aliens. http://www.cis.org/articles/2004/fiscalexec.html
3. $2.5 Billion dollars a year is spent on Medicaid for illegal aliens. http://www.cis.org/articles/2004/fiscalexec.html
4. $12 Billion dollars a year is spent on primary and secondary school education for children here illegally and they cannot speak a word of English!
5. $17 Billion dollars a year is spent for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies.
6. $3 Million Dollars a DAY is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRI.../01/ldt.01.html
7. 30% percent of all Federal Prison inmates are illegal aliens. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRI.../01/ldt.01.html
8. $90 Billion Dollars a year is spent on illegal aliens for Welfare and Social Services by the American taxpayers. http://premium.cnn.com/TRANSCIPTS/0610/29/ldt.01.html
9. $200 Billion Dollars a year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRI.../01/ldt.01.html
10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that's two-and-a-half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their children, are going to make a huge additional crime problem in the US. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRI.../12/ldt.01.html
11. During the year of 2005 there were 4 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our Southern Border also, as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from Terrorist Countries. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroin and marijuana, crossed into the U. S from the Southern border. Homeland Security Report. http://tinyurl.com/t9sht
12. The National Policy Institute, 'estimated that the total cost of mass deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period.' http://www.nationalpolicyinstitute....deportation.pdf
13. In 2006 illegal aliens sent home $45 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin. http://www.rense.com/general75/niht.htm
14. 'The Dark Side of Illegal Immigration: Nearly One Million Sex Crimes Committed by Illegal Immigrants In The United States'. http://www.drdsk.com/articleshtml
Total cost is a whooping... $338.3 BILLION A YEAR!!!
If this doesn't bother you then just delete the message, but on the other hand, if it does raise the hair on the back of your neck, then forward it.
Bank of America is now giving credit cards to Illegal Aliens without any identification! Snopes is provided for doubters:

Doesn't really compare to the trillions that will eventually be spent on the Iraq war. You know all those soldiers coming back with head trauma? Guess who foots the medical bill for the next 60 years? You do.



Hope your pleased with your war, Americans. You've sent today's children to die and have bankrupted tomorrow's children, and for what?


Wars are expensive and the expenses go way beyond the expense of conducting the war itself. The last money that was spent on the Civil War was spent in 2003. That's right. The government was still paying a pension to a Civil War veteran's widow in 2003. That's how long we have to pay for war. 138 years.

i cant help but think if your logic actually held up this nation would have been bankrupt after the War of 1812.

It's obvious wars don't bankrupt nations. However, overspending can. War is a legitimate action of the federal government they have the obligation to keep this nation safe.

Federal entitlement are not an obligation of the federal government. In fact, they are completely contradictory to the Constitution and cost far more than any war.

Bridges to nowhere in Alaska. Brick for brick, man for man, hour for hour that bridge and the now proposed ferry will cost far more on a comparable basis than anything our troops have been able to replicate in Iraq. At least our troops are honest about it, don't you know!!!!!!!!??????????

Are you serious? Do you want to take that back?

Iraq was not an imminent danger to the US, so I don't see this applies.

So you support the Iraq war, you just don't want the federal government to have to pay for the care of war veterans?
