A Sterling example of the illegal immigration problem.

The Washington Post has a story on another town Sterling Park, Virginia spiraling downward because of unchecked illegal immigration. Of course the liberal Washington Post sugar coats it. With the disingenuous reasons by pro-illegal advocates who claim the town looks bad because it's getting old. Yeah right! Here are some more quotes to ponder:

"The Sterling Park home she rents from a relative is modestly furnished but tidy. A sprinkler sits idle in her yard. Four cars are lined up in the driveway, and the lamppost is wound with Christmas lights. She said she and her husband, their three children and three other family members live there.
"All of us -- my kids, too -- we work all the time, and it's sometimes hard to keep up with the house," she said with the aid of a translator."


Here's the real translation. The woman entered the country illegally and is in a house that houses eight "family" members. They work hard and find it's hard to keep up with the house. OK but, I bet her neighbors work hard too and find it hard to keep up with the work but, to also pay the taxes (about $30,000) it cost to educate her kids.
But, I think this quote sums up the feeling of many people including myself when it comes to the problem of unchecked illegal immigration:

"I don't want someone coming to my country and building another dang country inside of it," Wilber said. "It's like if you came home and found someone in your house and you said, 'What are you doing here?' And they said: 'Oh, the door was open; I just came in. By the way, I'm going to change some other things in your home, too.' "
