    Geraldo has always been anti-immigration law enforcement. He wants an open border. Could it be that was the way he got here?

    Rivera is biased...being Hispanic, which is unfortunate, but not surprising. He has to know better...but can't bring himself to admit what illegals are doing to this country is wrong. Michelle Malkin is accurate in all situations I've heard her discuss. She knows of what she speaks.

    Why?
    Michelle Malkin is always right.
    Geraldo Rivera is always wrong.

    On this particular issue, why is Michelle right?
    First she uses facts,
    and Geraldo uses emotion.
    That pretty much seals the deal.
    But them Geraldo pops a vein,
    because he had his head handed to him,
    and attacks Michelle.
    At that point it is an Epic Fail for Geraldo.

    O'Reilly took the douchebag route on the exchange.
    He did have Geraldo come back on and apologize,
    but Michelle gave him the choice between her, or Geraldo.
    O'Reilly chose Geraldo, and his program now suffers.

    Geraldo's apparences on O'Reilly are cringe worthy.
    Michelle and Kirsten's segments were some of the best he had on his show.
    They have been replaced with two segments.
    One is a direct replacement,
    the other is a pseudo replacement,
    and both are not very good at all.
    Carlson and Hoover do not even hold a candle as "culture warriors."
    And the Colmes and Crowley's segments are headache inducing.
    Once again a direct result of Geraldo.
    So that makes him wrong three times.
    At this point to is an Extra Epic Fail, with whipped cream, sprinkles, and a cherry on top.
    Geraldo sucks even more today, than he every did in the past.
    An amazing accomplishment, even for him.

    I am in favor of a much higher quota for immigration than we have and it should be relatively easy and inexpensive, but the influx of immigrants should be controlled and those entering should be known. Michelle is saying the law should be enforced. Contrary to Geraldo's suggestion that she wanted to pull their pants down to see if they were illegal aliens, she had hypothesized that it was known that they were working for a US employer and had not shown they were legally in the USA. Geraldo tried to make her into an evil informer, but does that mean that Geraldo would not turn in bank robbers or murderers? Where does Geraldo draw the line? Or does he decide to not turn in someone who violates the law only when the majority of violators are Hispanic?

    ILLEGALS don't belong here and should be snitched out and deported. That being said, I think there should be a path to citizenship for ppl who have been here over 10 years, held a job and paid taxes the whole time and have a clean criminal record.

    No....the fact of the matter is that there are not that many undocumented workers (as they like to call them). They don't WORK. They sit on welfare. For the ones that have been contributing with a work ethic, paid taxes and made a home here for more than 10 years, there should be a path to citizenship. Most just collect government debit cards and are a pox upon us and should be deported pronto.

    Could it be that it is just a real representation of the population?

    With 40% of the people in the United States identifying themselves as conservative, and 20% of the people in the United States identifying themselves as liberal, wouldn't you say it is an accurate representation?

    I don't know anything about statistics, but if so few Americans tend to be liberal why do so many Democrats get elected as president? and other positions of power? There should be a clear domination of the Republican party and yet there isn't. And your figures only add up to 60%, where are the other 40? Putting that aside, it's one thing to be a conservative, and another to be an conservative nazi-like extremist. Geraldo is a conservative himself, and there are plenty of other level-headed conservatives who don't have totalitarian views on things. I'd argue that extreme right-wingers are a minority. A very vocal minority, but a minority nonetheless, and thank god for that.

    The numbers do not add up to 100 because there were more choices that just two in the poll, you could be something other than conservative, or liberal. I was sharing the results of the poll because of exactly what you said in the reply, you tend to believe that conservatives are a small group, but liberals are actually a smaller group than conservatives. That was my point, there are less self identified liberals, than there are self identified conservatives. Conservatives are not some small fanatical group.

    Why do so many Democrats get elected into office? The same reason so many Democrats voted for Reagan. The 40% that you thought were missing in the poll are people who are not self identified conservatives or liberals. How do they vote? Well, there is your answer, they vote for both Republicans and Democrats. Likewise, not all self identified conservatives, liberals, or registered Republicans and Democrats always vote the way the media, polsters, and predictors thing they do. Have you ever voted a straight party ticket in your life? I have never voted a straight party ticket in my life, and to you I am a "conservative nazi-like extremist". So there you go, that is how Democrats get elected.

    You also seem to forget that when either the Republicans get into power, or ...

So there you go, that is how Democrats get elected.

    You also seem to forget that when either the Republicans get into power, or the Democrats get into power, they ultimately and eventually screw things up. Clinton was elected with less than 50% of the popular vote because enough people who would have voted for the GOP candidate where disgusted enough to vote for Ross Perot, while others voted for Clinton. Why? Because they were disgusted with Bush 41.

    I agree, there are plenty of level headed conservatives out there, AND there are also plenty of level headed liberals out there. What we see on TV is the extremes, always will be. Even when the original Crossfire was on CNN, Buchanan and Press (a conservative not a waterboy for the GOP, and a liberal not a waterboy for the Democrats) had civil debates about issues. I am not sure that will happen again, it would be constructive if it did.

    I disagree with you that Geraldo is in anyway a conservative. Geraldo's political positions are reliably to the left, and always have been. Michelle Malkin is a true blue conservative, and there is nothing about her position that should surprise or outrage anyone. She is not totalitarian, but she does demand that people here illegally not be allowed to continue to break the law. There is nothing extreme about that.

    Yes, and likewise the people who denounced jews to the Gestapo were just making sure that said jews were not be allowed to continue to break the law by existing. I kid, I kid, I know the situations aren't comparable, but what is comparable here is that such a thing could turn into a repeat of McCarthyism, and no one wants that.

    Thanks for your clearand interesting reply, there's just a couple of things I wanted to add:

    - When I mentioned "conservative nazi-like extremists", I wasn't targeting you specifically.
    - I have read somewhere that Geraldo was a registered Republican.

    I do not see how people who are here illegally being considered illegal wades into the waters of McCarthyism. I mean yeah, McCarthy blew his whole mission by not being measured and being too extreme. True. So, you have a point. But the solution to the issue is to address it, with what the law is in mind, and not go all extreme compassionate either. Remember, we are broke as a country, and many of our states are broke because of this issue. We have to address this matter in a fiscally responsible manner.

    I agree with Michelle, so I assumed I would be "conservative nazi-like extremist." LOL I did understand it was not targeted at me though. I did think you were calling me that. We are good.

    Geraldo might indeed be registered to vote as a Republican. I have no idea. I know him from what he says on TV, that is what I am going by, and there is nothing about him that stikes me as conservative.

    I do not find how people are registered to vote as being indicative as much at all to tell you the truth. Where I live I know many people who are registered the way they are because of local politics; one party runs local government, so to not be registered that way leaves a voter with no voice in the primary, the only election that matters here.

    Well, it's the whole idea of relying on people to denounce their neighbors. Such tactics made the chole McCarthy thing spin out of control and the same thing could happen here. People will start denouncing their neighbors either because they suspect them for no particular good reason or to get back at them fopr something, creating a climate of distrust and subjecting many innocent people to humiliating police raids.

    Oh, I see.
    Yeah, you got me there.
    I am not down with that.
    A person being here illegally is the government's issue, as it deals with federal law. There are so many ways to detect if someone is here illegally, by the authorities I mean, that individual citizens being "narcs" is kind of ridiculous in my mind. A non-citizen's status in the country is really between them and the law, not the busy body who lives on the street. So yeah, I am with you on that.

    Neither. Because the real issue is the False-Flag terrorism of the muni-corp "United States"!!! Until the MSM and the populous see the obvious, their right/left blathering will continue to have the sheeple "chasing-their-tail". That'll be a bit difficult since the Elitist Establishment controlled Council On Foreign Relations has FULL control of the MSM, and that's where at least 50% (conservative to me) of "Americans" get their "news"!

    Geraldo is on point. In Michelle’s America, is that person legal or illegal? Michelle’s approach IS pathetic. What Geraldo is concerned with is what America has done with Mexicans before, population transfer, this time over twelve million Hispanics and Mexicans and due to neighbors, as Geraldo said, snitching out neighbors. Pitting Americans against Americans is a common tactic used by American racists and American racists who fail to admit they are racists. Pitting browns against browns and browns against blacks is being replayed, history is sadly repeating itself as I can see. Where this poll is concerned, I feel Geraldo is definitely right and Michelle Malkin is definitely dead wrong, again. Geraldo is not engaging in the worse demagogy in my opinion. What makes Geraldo’s insight into the problem of population transfer a false claim? I feel Geraldo is genuinely concerned about this repeated American problem and his concern has absolutely nothing to do with him trying to gain power, or prestige.

Michelle discriminates, as she usually does, this time in a flimsy effort to sidetrack her methods to discriminate, that is, where this immigration issue is concerned. Michelle knew when she was invited on O’Reilly’s “no spin” (barf) show the topic was illegal immigration. Did Michelle get it twisted thinking the topic was the illegal immigrants were Irish? Michelle knew the subject was about Mexicans and I’m not buying it when she says she never defined race, BS, Michelle showed she knew when she slid the ‘Gerald has an open border narcissist problem’ card onto the table. I am sure Michelle was not referring to open borders in Ireland. Frankly when Michelle had the nerve to talk about “projections”, I had to smile. Michelle’s lips drip with lie juice. To me, the notion of good faith as she espouses is not synonymous with the likes of one Michelle Malkin, so HeII to the no, she is not right.

    "Population transfer?" Sorry, I don't buy that anti-American Lib BS terminology. Try INVASION, then we're on the same page.

    Any foreigner who sneaks into our country like a Japanese nina to pillage it and plunder it is an invader, not an immigrant. And if you persist according them respect they don't have by referring to them as "immigrants," then so too were the Nazis who "immigrated" to France in WW II.

    Anti-American Lib stuff? Are you for real? You sound old enough to remember Diego Garcia in the late sixties, early seventies when Britain forced thousands of Chagosse out of their homeland to build a military base. You talk about foreigners as though you are an American Indian and you are not.

    Who are you to talk about pillaging and plundering America? Who is the real “invader”? In addition, do not use the old Nazis who immigrated to France routine, stupidest allowed much to take place during this period you seem stuck in.

    I afford all human life respect and I do not subscribe to population transfer and believe it is never a solution to ethnic struggle. Before you write next time educate yourself, I recommend Dennis Ross, the peace process ISBN 0-88728-308-X and Timothy Waters, On the Legal Construction of Ethnic Cleansing.
