  1. Who is representing the American worker? Nobody, unless you're in a union. Otherwise, you can fuggedaboutit! Amnesty or America? Choose one, lose the other!
    Amnesty is not about Latinos, it's about numbers! Millions of Democrat voters will render the Republican party impotent. Even if you hate Republicans, this is not good for our freedom. Sure, the Dems attract people with promises of generous (for now) entitlement programs. But giving 11-20 million more needy people legal access to all entitlement programs will crash an already over-burdened system! The feds have already cut extended unemployment benefits. Soon, jobless American workers will have their safety nets removed and they won't be able to get a job because cheaper foreign workers are doing them for less. This is what Big Business wants. Once Unions are filled with cheaper foreign workers, do you think they'll continue to pay Americans premium wages?

  2. Want to see what a statesman looks like? Watch State Senator Delph address the state senate before he voted against the ConCon.

  3. Great letter, Jim Jones! You hit the nail on the head! CBS has done some great reporting on this problem but the story doesn't seem to have legs. Jack Riley, who heads the DEA in Chicago, has been sounding the alarm. Riley has experience working for the DEA on the Texas border so he knows what he's talking about. He has named the head of the Sinaloa Cartel as Public Enemy Number one in Chicago: http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/02/13/mexican-drug-lord-named-chicagos-public-enemy-number-one/
    I HATE going to Chicago now. It's like going to Mexico. You don't know what the rules are. You never feel safe. You have to fear the police every bit as much as the banditos.

  4. There's one thing missing from this story and that would be Philpot's party affiliation. I know, I know! People ASSUME any politician from Lake County is a Democrat but I think this bears repeating. Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a Democrat! Philpot is a DEMOCRAT!

  5. Good letter!

    Taxpayers pay for libraries, too. Why can't these people send their resumes from a library computer?

  6. There is a bill in the Indiana State Senate which would give illegal alien students an unfair advantage over citizen students from neighboring states. A citizen from New York or Ohio who attends Indiana University pays the annual out-of-state tuition rate of approximately $30K while an illegal from Indiana would pay only $10K. The law abiding Hoosier taxpayers subsidize the $20K difference. The Star estimated 300 illegal alien students who are already in college would be impacted. That amounts to 300 students x $20K = $6 million cost to taxpayers for illegal alien students.

  9. Borrowing a line from James Carville, "It's their CHARACTER, stupid!" Even Republicans won't vote for Republican candidates if they think they have bad character. Get some better candidates, GOP. Try getting some nice, honest, charismatic, intelligent people who are involved in their community.
