Default Regarding Caleeforneea......

let me get this straight. A huge portion of your deficit is related to illegal immigration expenses that your liberal politicians continue to harbor.

And they want the federal government's help? And we should now put the hands of the entire US into the hands of more liberals?

Hold on and keep your hands inside the ride!

You need to say that while someone else is yodeling for it to be truly authentic.

The cost of the new border fence is now up to $47 billion. Apparently the value of keeping those particular illegals out will exceed $47 billion? It's not like Maria and Juan are asking for the government for $700 billion to bail out the investments on Avenida de la Revolucion.

Border fence?

Land mines would be a lot more effective and inexpensive.

I prefer, "Por favor, hale la toalla con dos manos hacia abajo." I had a buddy who memorized that for some reason and would always say it. Must have spent a lot of time en el baño.

How much does California benefit from illegal labor? (That part of the equation is hidden.)

This is why Cal has a different stance on illegals than AZ - they're economy would be a big hit, particulary in SoCal.

They nation's economy would take a hit if all the illegals didn't go to work.

Agreed.

The focus needs to be on securing the borders to limit the incoming illegals. After that is under control, then we can decide what to do with those who are here illegally. I'm not for amnesty, but perhaps an expedited way to grant legal status and some sort of fine.
