I would like to thank the state of Alabama for taking our country back sayyyyy...ohhh...50 years at least.

You know all those jobs that illegal immigrants happily do every day? Well, they have those jobs because the people that were citizens of the U.S. already didn't want them. They are an integral part of our U.S. economy. Don't believe me. Here's what Former Federal Reserve Chairman, Alan Greenspan, has to say about this http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=newsarchive&sid=aeQKG53ULolk
There were once illegal immigrants in the U.S....I believe they called them Pilgrims and settlers. The only true citizens of our country are Native Americans by the way.
Our forefathers came to this country with the same dream as these "illegal immigrants". They wanted a better life for themselves and their families. They wanted freedom. They wanted to contribute to their new community and help it grow and prosper.
A portion of the poem, "The New Colossus", on our beloved Statue of Liberty reads,
"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Ya, this applies to EVERYONE, not just Pilgrims and other European immigrants.
Alabama, you are only giving our "governor", Scott Walker, ideas.
