I gotta say, the level of the debate around immigration is disgustingly low. Every time I hear a show where conservatives call in I just shake my head. It's clearly a racial debate for conservatives. It has nothing to do with securing the border. "We were here first.", "They drain our resources." "They are all rapists and murderers." It's foul and the people that espouse this shit should be ashamed of themselves.
Is this something going to have to put up with every two years? Every other year we are going to have to go through the Republicans trying to rally their base playing to the worst of their bigotry and racism. The last time it was bashing gays. Now it's bashing undocumented workers. What will it be next year, an all out religious war against the non-believers?
About this immigration debate. My answer to these bigots is to grow the fuck up. There is no way we are going to ethnically cleanse the country by deporting millions of their hated brown people. This isn't a whites only country and it never will be. Get over it. America has always been a melting pot and that's been a source of greatness.
If you want to tackle something in this area, fix border security. That includes the Canadian border, as well as our border to the Atlantic and Pacific. In fact, the only border crossing Al Qaeda plan we know about was using the lighly monitored Canadian border. So please, don't bullshit me about how your anti-brown bigotry is some genuine plan to secure the border against Al Qaeda.
