I would like to point out a growing trend
At the beginning of the summer the right-wing hate machine was in agreement that there were 12 million illegal aliens polluting our homeland. Listen today and the numbers cited will run as high as 40 million. Anyone suprised?

1. I'm NOT surprised ... it's all part of the plan .. USA = 3rd World Poverty ...
Dems in action.
Everyday, down the street from my house, some kind liberal souls drive a huge truck into a vacant parking lot and feed these "poor" people who sit outside waiting for jobs ... illegals/day laborers.
While AMERICANS sit home depressed because they're jobs have been stolen or outsourced.
Pathetic!!

3. I can not comprehend the point you are trying to make here - can you try again?
I'm missing something here and I'm interested in your point and how you're trying to make it. Can you explain a little bit better?

6. Feeding the poor makes them lazy?
Starving day laborers will make the ones here illegally go home to countries where some of them will likely be killed?

I'm with you, Tom, I don't get the point, either.

7. We sure seem to be getting a lot of TROLLS on DU this past week or so...
Did the repukes send out a memo to log on to DU after they teabag the Demorats' Town Halls or something?

I bet that's the case...sure seems like it...

8. The unrecommend feature tells it all
I think this is pretty funny. In the first place all the post does is point out that in the public rhetoric the estimated number of 'illegals' that is being recited is growing fast. There is nothing particularly controversial about the post, it just notes something that is going on. Shortly after I posted it I noted that it has received 1 Recommend. That surprised me because I really didn't think it was important, just something to take note of. Then a few moments later it had the little <0 sign, meaning that it had received more Unrecommends than Recommends - meaning at least 2 people Unrecommended it. Now I didn't think it was worth a Recommend, but it sure as hell wasn't worth an Unrecommend. The only thing that comes to mind is Trolls.
