Presidential candidates mum on immigration
Sens. Barack Obama and John McCain discussed many things at last night’s presidential debate including the economy, healthcare and whether to bomb Pakistan.
But they offered nary a word on immigration.
Several groups e-mailed reporters in advance with lists of experts on immigration to help analyze the candidates’ statements.
But the topic didn’t come up. At all.
In fact, immigration has been largely absent as a campaign topic mostly because both candidates support an immigration measure that would give illegal immigrants some kind of path to citizenship.
The only place immigration has appeared is in Spanish-langauge ads. Both candidates have been sparring over immigration in the spots, designed to influence Hispanic voters in swing states.

The pestilence will not stop growing till we rigidly enforce immigration laws. the middle class already overburdened with war appropriation funds, is still forced to pay for the education, free health-care and Federal, state welfare handouts for illegal criminals.
Be observant and watch for VOTER FRAUD, as illegal aliens will commit perjury.
