You started the thread.... so, technically, it is you that is 'bitching' about illegal immigration. We are a Republic, not a democracy... a Republic... a nation of laws. .
Wrong again.
We are supposed to be a COMPACT OF SOVEREIGN STATES - it was NEVER their intent to form a nation. The powers conferred to the central government were SPECIFICALLY ENUMERATED . The authority to confer citizenship was NEVER GRANTED TO WASHINGTON DC. The Constitution (1787) has NEVER been amended.
So don't give me this bullshit about being a "nation of laws" but then try to convince us that a statute trumps the Constitution, the supremacy clause nothwithstanding.
"In this relation, then, the proposed government cannot be deemed a national one; since its jurisdiction extends to certain enumerated objects only, and leaves to the several States a residuary and inviolable sovereignty over all other objects."
