p> ILLEGAL EASE br> Re: Lawrence Henry's Employee Theft : /p>

Why the heck aren't we tough on Mexico for all kinds of stuff? The illegal folks from Mexico coming into this country are only one of the problems. There seems to be a fear of being dissed in the "world-press" for enforcing our own laws that ensure our survival as America. It also seems that many politicians have a thin skin, and since its O.K. to criticize America, they can be lax in law enforcement too? They may feel good about themselves, but the country will still be stricken.

Across the nation we have heard the cacophony of voices regarding illegal immigration. Please note that this plain speaking Texan calls it what it is...illegal. I am thoroughly tired of inane arguments about how much we need folks that won't even obey the simplest of laws, that being, stand in line and come to the states legally. Our communities are overrun with illegals, our schools are packed, our hospitals pressed beyond measure. And as this is income tax season and we are calculating how much more we have to pay, while we are thankful for the fact we have earned sufficient, there is considerable anger that folks who would flaunt the law and strip community resources saying they cannot pay, are now flying my flag upside down with the Mexican flag on top.

p>Congress may be listening to the wrong voices. I am certain that folks like our family would not show up for a rally opposing illegal immigration, we are the families that show up to fight for freedom. But Congress better listen to we who are truly the silent majority. Make no mistake. If you do not tackle this issue we will replace you. Congress are you listening? You are replaceable...without a doubt. The louder "voices" in this issue are those that are silent...hear us...we are legal Americans and we vote. We will elect those who tackle this issue. It is time, as my Dad would say, to fish or cut bait. br> --
