        Legal and illegal immigrants booted out of the country because
        of drugs, money laundering, bank fraud, fake IDs
        \_ Were any of the people booted out Caucasian?  How about
           criminal and money penalties against famers employing
           illegal aliens? Maybe illegal aliens should try the
           "i was confused (and thought i was still in mexico)"
           defense ... i mean it is good enough for highly compensated,
           well-educated business executives.
           \_ Farmers are fined when they're caught employing illegal aliens.
              \- the point is how vigorous is enforcement. duh.
                 and see point about criminal penalties in addition to
                 fines.
                 \_ Why do you hate pro-business America? It's not business'
                    fault they hired an illegal, it's the illegal's fault
                    for being illegal. Figuring out who is legal and who is
                    not is too hard for the small business owners like Tyson
                    Chicken or Walmart. Get government regulators off the
                    backs of the business man.
                    \_ Err, is this post intended to be satirical?  I'm
                       honestly not sure....
                    \_ it *IS* the business' fault if they didn't follow legally
                       mandated requirements for  checking proof of eligibility
                       to work.
        \_ "...charged in New York with drug possession and trafficking,
           money laundering, bank and credit-card fraud or producing false
           identities."  Sounds like the IIRAIRA in action.  Passed in 1996,
           came out of a commission set up by Clinton and chaired by Barbara
           Jordan, to make it easy (among other things) to deport "aggravated
           felons".

2/26    You know what will save our country? When you liberals realize that
        your stupid high tax socialist programs don't work. Realize that
        all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism,
        anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism,
        homosexualism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism are
        reasons why America hates you. Mainstream America =
        conservatives, not liberal wackos. You lost. Get over it.
        Go ahead and delete this post, see if I care.
        \_ these non-wealthy, conservative american aregoing to be eaten
           alive by another -ism: globlaism. [although so are the uneducated
           liberals ... but they have been losing for a while now].
        \_ You know, "government enforced atheism" is completely different from
           the ideal of a non-religious government.
           \_ funny line in latest LEXINGTON [E'ist column on USA Politics]:
                    [secular europeans] can't believe that any
                    modern person can be religious unless they
                    are either stupid or insane.

2/26    Worst Game Controllers of All Time:
        http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/690/690449p1.html
        \_ The Atari 5200 controller is the #1 worst controller in my
           book.  The Xbox and Jaguar controllers don't even come close.
           Actually, I kinda like the Jag controller, but it should've had
           6 buttons.  The Intellivision controller isn't that bad either,
           bit of a hand cramper though. -jrleek
        \_ In "best controllers of all time" land, I liked the SNES controller.
        \_ Gotta agree with the xbox's controller being beyond bad.
