There's no reason her son can't go to Mexico with her. They need to make the constitution clear, that anchor babies aren't citizens.

Xenophobe? Don't think so. I support increased immigration quotas. My grandfather was an immigrant. I just don't care for people coming here to have their kids so that they can take advantage of poor law and use it as a tool to manipulate sentiment so that they can stay here. I'd love for her to become a citizen through the legal paths. The thing that's so despicable here is you jumping to conclusions and shouting out nonsense names.

To those who say that my stance is republican, name a democratic senator who says illegal aliens should just stay here unidentified and illegally. This woman worked at O'Hare International Airport! That's a huge security risk, maybe not in her case but for others it is. Imagine the illegal alien member of MS-13 who executed those college students working at Newark International. Besides it's not like it's tearing her family apart. Her son is free to go with her.

Conan, as always I continue to applaud your immigration stance.  This bitch deserves to go

If you don't like our immigration laws, you can leave.  This is America... love it or leave it.

While I wouldnt call this lady a bitch, it also happens to be the case that she was deported because of our immigration laws. If you don't like them...

LOL!  Employing any one of 12 million illegal immigrants is a "HUGE SECURITY RISK"?  What's next, warrantless wiretapping is necessary to protect America from the terrorists?  Seriously, join the Republican party... you will feel much more at home there.  Maybe you can get a spare room next to CARLHAYDEN's jail cell.

Anyway, our opinion isn't that illegal aliens should stay here unidentified and "illegally."  They should be given amnesty and free citizenship instead.

I said it was a security risk to hire an illegal alien at an airport. Anyway, the majority of democrats don't believe in giving criminal illegal aliens such as herself amnesty and free citizenship. The failed "amnesty" bill didn't even give illegal aliens free citizenship. You're fringe. You don't speak for my party.

So you're saying that an illegal alien whose backround we know nothing about working an an airport isn't a security risk? I know you're pretty safe out in Oregon but it's not a risk I am going to take where I live. I'm not saying that anymore than even 1% of illegal aliens are a danger but we can't have people here undocumented.

I don't care who I speak for.  Don't claim the party as "yours", though.  Keep in mind that not a single candidate for President from the Democratic aisle supports mass deportations.  They support a path to citizenship, and they support giving aliens access to health care.  There's no reason to kick out 12 million people, after all.  It would be harder to make us even more disliked in the international community, but we could sure do it with an inhumane mass deportation.

Anyway, people who come here to work and start families are clearly vicious criminals.

but we can't have people here undocumented.

That's why you document them, and give them citizenship.  This is pretty simple.

Immigration Checks Ordered in New Jersey

By DAVID W. CHEN and KAREEM FAHIM
Published: August 23, 2007
TRENTON, Aug. 22 — The New Jersey attorney general, Anne Milgram, on Wednesday ordered local law enforcement agencies to inquire about the immigration status of criminal suspects and notify federal authorities whenever they believe someone arrested is in the country illegally.

Damn the Corzine administration! So right wing of him!

^^^^

You seriously support that crap Bacon? When that belief comes mainstream it will then be time to vote from the rooftops.

Honestly, I fail to see why we shouldn't make legal immigration much easier. And if legal immigration is to be made easier, it only makes sense that the same new laws apply to people who already reside in the country.

After penalization because they broke our laws.

[Conan]

Yeah, that's a pretty heartless thing to do. To kick a mother out of the country and not let her take her child.

Was she actually not allowed to take the kid?

Either way, she ought to have been out of here on a rocket.

She was in LA where she was deported. She was sent to Tijuana and the son then went there and is now back in LA so that she can use him to come back. Disgusting mother, leaves her child alone in LA.

[Conan]

Elvira has blamed the United States for letting her in and having people pay taxes in an interview I saw on CNN. She and others are also saying our laws are inhumane. I don't think they are. We let thousands and thousands of people immigrate here every year and if I am not correct, most of the immigrants are coming from central/south america so our laws arent discriminating against them. Kennedy wrote legislation in the 60s that got rid of discriminatory immigration practices. I have a friend whos been living in the United States for 16 years, is a legal resident, and was only allowed to apply for citizenship and leave the country last year. It's extremely unfair to just give amnesty to people who havent followed the rules when there are legal immigrants here who have had to wait so long and have gotten screwed by bureaucracy. Also, you can never tell my friend was an immigrant as she as American as you or I, yet I had only found out she wasn't a citizen yet two months ago.

I'm not too sure what they think gives them the right to remove someone from a Catholic Church.  If I were the Pope I would be livid... Bush's phone would be ringing off the hook.

But she wasn't in the church, she came outside to give a press conference and ended giving the reporters more of a story that she'd intended.  Oops!  In any case, even if one recognizes the right of churches to unilaterally grant sanctuary, Elvira didn't even attempt to claim political asylum status.  She was a purely economic migrant.  Although I suppose if one really wanted to stretch things beyond their proper shape, she could have claimed that she was being persecuted in the United States and gone to Mexico to seek asylum status there.

That's differeny.  I only breezed the article to be honest.

It wasn't a catholic church either.
