Sorry all, I made a mistake.

Attempting to prevent this from drawing any more fire...

It's obvious that I grossly misinterpreted that piece. It was received from a staunch Republican who does not waver in his core beliefs, so he must have heard it the same way as I.

You should all know by now that there is no intent to insult or offend on my part. I may put my foot in my mouth from time to time, but no harm is ever meant.

From previous posts, I expect this is posted to support the position that illegals are taking jobs from US citizens.

That being the case, I expect there is a patriotic truth in play here.

I was only born once and I have only given 2 pledges in my life. One to my country and one to my wife.
