Bump for Prax to read again.

right and I was making a point that it is NOT everyone elses..so I don't see how your comment was supposed to refute or agree with what I said. That is why I post the way I do in response to what you post...

As though I said somewhere that illegals were getting paid FULL wages. Now then I asked you where I said they were getting full wages and you replied where did you ever say I said that and now I am twice providing the quote. YOu said the above and I am asking again what in my post, where you qouted me, had me saying Illegals get paid full benefits? You confuse me. I did not say one thing about them getting paid full benefits, yet you asked me this
That's right.....I asked, not said that you stated it. It was a 'yes' or 'no' question. Simple. Quit making it a big deal.

yes? And what was your point though? I posted that Americans will do construction jobs and this was your reply so I am just wondering what your point would be.

I was merely adding to what you said. If that's against the rules, let me know.

No, you asked it in the form of an accusation wtih several ?????? after it...what is your point in asking me something like that when I never hinted to the contrary? That is confusing. Im just trying to understand what your points are here...are you disagreeing with me somehow? What in my post made you ask me that? You say stop making a big deal, but how are we to have a dialog here if I have no idea what you are asking me or why?

You are asking me why I posted it. Is there a rule that says my post has to have something to do with yours or something? Is there a rule that says I have to make sense?

Usually, when I read posts that don't make sense, I just disregard them. If mine don't make sense to you, please do just that.

You have to realize that the reason YOU are here was becuase of an "open door" immigration policy. We don't have that now. What the Senate committe is proposing while not perfect, gives those undocumented workers a chance to "get right" with immigration.
