It's reflexive for the left.  There is no difference in their minds.

It is a purposeful lie, like "reasonable, common sense" gun control laws.  It makes us look like unreasonable xenophobes.  Put an "Ellis Island" at the southern border, make the Mexicans apply for entry, and then have a process to make sure they are not criminals, gang members or terrorists.  If we need temporary migrant workers, develop a LEGAL guest worker program.

Which is a statist and communist way to enforce laws that destroy liberty.

The Federal government, and the states have created laws that are un-Constitutional.  Layers, and layers of overly restrictive laws and regulations which are upheld by corrupt courts that illegally legislate from the bench.  This has mostly happened since the modern Progressive movement has been in control since the 1960's.  So we've had 50 plus years of indoctrination to think this is "normal".  There are level headed, relatively moderate people here that have bought into all that.

That's the FC I remember. Might as well just post under that name.

FC posts here under his own name.  That style of posting doesn't match FC's at all.  Maybe be more aware?   :)

What we despise is illegal immigration, a word that you conveniently omit from your analysis. Why is that? 

Illegal immigrants' first act when coming to the US is to break our laws. That doesn't bode well for remaining lawful once they are in country.

Conservatives also don't buy into the WSJ/Chamber of Commerce narrative that illegals are needed because they are doing jobs Americans won't do. Bullshit. If we need temporary agricultural workers, set up a LEGAL guest worker program to handle that.

Also, without vetting ILLEGAL immigrants we get criminals, and terrorist in the mix.  They need to be examined so we don't just get moochers, and murderers.  That's what Ellis Island was for.  The left either doesn't get it, or purposely doesn't want to.

As I look at the primary elections I see the stamp of the two parties all over everything.
The same corrupt clowns that dumped McCain and Romney on the GOP are working feverishly not to dump Don Trump on us right now, because the only thing they fear worse than losing the White House - again - is being out of power.
The same corrupt clowns that dumped Obama on America - twice -  are doing whatever it takes to make sure Hilary Clinton is the nominee no matter who wins the actual primaries. It's 2008 all over again for them.
Ted Cruz is hated by leftists because he refuses to play the political power games they live for.
Ted Cruz is hated by RINO republicans because he refuses to play their power games by their rules.
Bernie Sanders and John Kasich are just bystanders playing with themselves, thinking they are relevant right now.

We are at the tipping point, and actually may be beyond as we've had two or three generations of heavily leftist indoctrinated people now voting, and making policy.  The Progressive/liberals (Democrats) have succeeded in taking over education, government, and the media.  We have an uphill battle to retain what made America exceptional and drive people to WANT to come here.  Our business climate is already crap, and our freedoms are dwindling.  If Hillary gets elected we are DONE.

I wonder what the waist line and weight of the average AL pitcher is compared to the average NL pitcher who, as remote as it seems, may actually need to run a baseline every once in a while. 

Good question!  I dislike the DH, and enjoy when pitchers get hits, especially homers.

I bet if we were to go back in time and ask Elvis Presley, or Michael Jackson if they were drug addicts, they would say no way, but they may concede that they do take medication for xxx condition. In the case of Prince, my money is on prescription pain killers as the culprit.

Yep.  Percoset.

Whatever. Would folks from 100 years ago recognize the country now? The only constant is change. Can't be worrying about what they might, or might not recognize in 40 years. There is a remote chance I will still be here then, so I'll remind them.

That's a pretty bad generalization.  When you take away the basic reasons people WANT to come here, then that's not just change that is extreme decline.  You're terribly wrong. 

There is an assault on our basic natural rights guaranteed by the Constitution which is being largely ignored by the courts.  If the Constitution doesn't matter anymore we are done.

The picture of the average Trump voter is becoming clearer every day.

I thought he was talking about Cruz.

Ok, that was pretty impressive. I only remember seeing some of his videos, and thought that his gyrations were more acting than guitar playing, leading me to wonder if he was even playing it. I guess I was sorely mistaken.

I never watched his vids, nor listen to his music unless it was being played in a public place.  I didn't realize until a few years ago learned he was a very accomplished musician on many instruments, especially guitar.  I played guitar in bands for many years in my misspent youth, so I can tell the real deal.

Anyone who was paying attention knew that Obama hates the idea of America. All you ha to do is read his books and see who he associated himself with. Trump is obviously for the Pursuit of Happiness.

I know Obama hated America prior to his first election.  It was obvious with what he said, and who he associated with.

I've never understood the attraction to drugs, or alcohol for that matter.

Well alcohol is a drug, and be even more destructive than other "drugs" as it is so easily available.
