Maxine on Minorities... (She never pulls a punch)

We need to show more sympathy for these people:

* They travel miles in the heat.
* They risk their lives crossing a border.
* They don't get paid enough wages.
* They do jobs that others won't do or are afraid to do.
* They live in crowded conditions among people who speak a different language.
* They rarely see their families, and they face adversity all day every day.

I'm not talking about illegal Mexicans;

I'm talking about our troops!

Doesn't it seem strange that many Democrats and Republicans are willing to lavish more support and social benefits on illegals than on our troops?
