I just can’t hold my tongue anymore!!!

If you are in this country illegally you are breaking the law and it is time for you to go home!! I don’t care if the numbers are true. If there are 12 millions illegals here we need to begin the process of deporting them NOW!!

I believe that the INS and the Justice Department are failing us as taxpayers by not attending these marches and asking people to present proof that they are here legally. If they are not legal they should be immediately sent back to their country of origin.

It is really that simple.

I believe that this country is the best place in the world. I’m not surprised that people from around want to come here to live and work but I resent those that come here illegally and feel they deserve something.

Jan Phelps had a letter to the editor in the Racine Journal Times a few days ago that stated the case better than I have ever heard it before…and most of her letter was quoting Theodore Roosevelt:

Teddy's perspective

Teddy on immigration....No, not that one. The REAL one as follows."In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American and nothing but an American....There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag....We have room for but one language here and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people." Theodore Roosevelt 1907
"No man is above the law and no man is below it; nor do we ask any man's permission when we require him to obey it." "Obedience to the law is demanded as a right; not asked as a favor." Third Annual Message to Congress Dec. 7, 1903.
I'm sure there are many of us who could not have said it any better.
