If they give us immigration I will give them Keystone.
Why won't both sides do that?

Why would people opposed to the democrats want to give them more democratic voters. No, I'd much rather have an immigration policy similar to Mexico's.

Me too, and if they stop the pipeline thats on their heads. Are you working I am so who will they be hurting.

In fact the pipeline is a division for the DNC thats going to hurt them internally.

My take on Mexico is that they have more of an emigration policy.

Yes, and it isn't even that opaque. I love Mexicans and their country; my problem lies with the quality of the ones that come here and their government's inability to take care of their own citizens. I'm fairly certain that most countries would not allow such an influx of illegal aliens and I'm positive that Mexico would not.
