Democrats Worried About Offending Illegal Aliens!

Don't Call Me No Stinkin' Illegal!

As if the Democrats' mad rush to remake America into a third-world colony of Mexico were not bad enough, now a mindless liberal actually wants to scrap the First Amendment by banning use of the term "Illegal Alien" in what used to be the Great state of Florida.
Sen. Frederica Wilson, D-Miami, has apparently decided that political correctness is more important than accuracy in public communications.
As a result, the Lady has introduced a bill that would bar a state agency or official from using the term. [NewsMax]
Despite Wilson's protestations to the contrary, illegal aliens Are NOT immigrants!
Migrating to America (legally) is, and should be, a long, drawn-out procedure meant to protect the interests of American citizens. It involves more than simply jumping a fence and heading north in pursuit of free health care, education, food stamps and other handouts paid for by U.S. taxpayers.
Legal immigration means enduring rigorous hurdles like background checks to detect a criminal background or possible ties to terrorists.
It means medical examinations to detect diseases still prevalent in third-world nations, but long since eradicated here, and
It means proof of financial solvency so as to prevent newcomers from becoming a burden on U.S. taxpayers.
Those who have jumped the fence into America in order to avoid our immigration checks are not immigrants.
In truth, people who come here illegally leave America vulnerable to undetected crime, terrorism, disease, and financial devastation. And they have no legal or moral justification for being here.
Why engage in silly word games and euphemistic cover-ups?
People here illegally are illegal aliens and need to leave ASAP.
Period!
