I have friends from all around the globe who have been illegal and married Americans, so I get it about being illegal and even wanting to have an anchor baby. Sigh, I don’t ahve time these days for a long sparring or to adddress you point for point nor am I feeling the need : )though I will say that the term anchor baby has been known for quite some time and if you’d like to believe I’ve been spoon fed the idea by the right, well Robert – you are giving them a whole lot of credit for nada, I’m an independent, always have been, no amount of bullshit form either side throws me.

Clearly I once again need to be more clear when I comment, or maybe just not do it in brief form or on subjects that will inflame or result in a six paragraph polite retort that I cannot possibly stand a chance against, you being who you are and all : )

Look, Robert, it’s pretty straightforward that I am not a racist/bigot, is it not?

Had a long day today and tomorrow is looking no different so I will bid you all a good night : )

Just because a term is used often doesn’t mean it has any real meaning. It could be a talking point established to push a group’s idea as if it was mainstream. Or it could be a plant to make one think the negative concept it represents is “out of control.”

When the term “anchor baby” comes up it almost always by someone accusing a group of trying to stay in the US illegally.

But you have never heard the Immigration Department use the term to describe that type of behavior. So who is using it so much?

I think you have been conned as the people were in that James Garner/Doris day movie called “Pillow Talk.” It is the one where the advertiser James Garner invented the Widget.

He had the name spread everywhere. Pretty soon the people were so excited about getting a widget that they didn’t bother to ask anything about it, they just wanted one.

Here you haven’t bothered to check whether there is a problem with illegal aliens using babies to stay in the US. You have merely assumed that since you hear the term bandied about so often there must be a problem.

Hello, as most every foreigner knows, a baby can not get you one extra day in the US. You have been officially bogusly frightened by the deceitful Right into believing that there is a problem that only their side is willing to acknowledge and do something about.

You have been deceived into being one of those repeating the lie so that some other unsuspecting person with arrive at the conclusion that you did. Namely they keep hearing the term “anchor baby,” and by Zen Lill yet so that “it means it’s a bit out of control.”

Anchor babies must be enabling thousands if not millions of OTWs to stay in our country illegally. I’ve got to vote for the party who is going to stop it by changing the 14th amendment.

Yeah, right!

They will just use your vote to get in office and then promptly begin to sell out to the big business interest that paid for the campaign to launch “Operation Anchor Baby.”

You’ve been scammed.

I was also told that it would cost me way more that the 34 hundred dollars that I had on me to defend myself. So I gave them my money.

I had worked all summer for that money but I had to return home empty handed.

Since then I take pleasure in making the lives of policemen and their families as miserable as I can.

The two policemen immediately began asking how much cash we were carrying. We had 4100 dollars in cash. The men with badges who called themselves cops took our money because they said it was drug money.

We sued to get it back. The US government told us that they would help because all across the state of Texas were badge carrying men who’s sole mission was to steal money from innocent motorist traveling on highways passing through Texas.

We won our case and the texas town settled by paying us and addition 102 thousand dollars. But no one went to jail.

We were later told the town made up the in a few days by hijacking latinos passing through their states for their money.

America where is the beautiful in that? You are a country of legalized thieves.
