Heard about it on the news.  The protest is being called "Not a Cent."  Links below have more info.\n\nThere were also pro-immigration protests this weekend in Denver, Charlotte, Dallas, and Sacramento.

The flood of American liberals sneaking across the border into Canada has intensified in the past week, sparking calls for increased patrols to stop the illegal immigration. The actions of President Bush are prompting the exodus among left-leaning citizens who fear they'll soon be required to hunt, pray, and agree with Bill O'Reilly. \n\nCanadian border farmers say it's not uncommon to see dozens of sociology professors, animal-rights activists, and Unitarians crossing their fields at night. \n\n"I went out to milk the cows the other day, and there was a Hollywood producer huddled in the barn," said Manitoba farmer Red Greenfield, whose acreage borders North Dakota. "The producer was cold, exhausted and hungry." \n\n"He asked me if I could spare a latte and some free-range chicken. When I said I didn't have any, he left. Didn't even get a chance to show him my screenplay, eh?" \n\nIn an effort to stop the illegal aliens, Greenfield erected higher fences, but the liberals scaled them. So he tried installing speakers that blare Rush Limbaugh across the fields. "Not real effective," he said. "The liberals still got through, and Rush annoyed the cows so much they wouldn't give milk." \n\nOfficials are particularly concerned about smugglers who meet liberals near the Canadian border, pack them into Volvo station wagons, drive them across the border and leave them to fend for themselves. \n\n"A lot of these people are not prepared for rugged conditions," an Ontario border patrolman said. "I found one carload without a drop of drinking water. They did have a nice little Napa Valley cabernet, though." \n\nWhen liberals are caught, they're sent back across the border, often wailing loudly that they fear retribution from conservatives. Rumors have been circulating about the Bush administration establishing re-education camps in which liberals will be forced to drink domestic beer and watch NASCAR races. \n\nIn recent days, liberals have turned to sometimes-ingenious ways of crossing the border. Some have taken to posing as senior citizens on bus trips to buy cheap Canadian prescription drugs. After catching a half-dozen young vegans disguised in powdered wigs, Canadian immigration authorities began stopping buses and quizzing the supposed senior-citizen passengers on Perry Como and Rosemary Clooney hits to prove they were alive in the '50s. \n\n"If they can't identify the accordion player on The Lawrence Welk Show, we get suspicious about their age," an official said. \n\nCanadian citizens have complained that the illegal immigrants are creating an organic-broccoli shortage and renting all the good Susan Sarandon movies. \n\n"I feel sorry for American liberals, but the Canadian economy just can't support them," an Ottawa resident said. "How many art-history majors does one country need?" \n\nIn an effort to ease tensions between the United States and Canada, Vice President Dick Cheney met with the Canadian ambassador and pledged that the administration would take steps to reassure liberals, a source close to Cheney said. \n\n"We're going to have some Peter, Paul & Mary concerts. And we might put some endangered species on postage stamps. The President is determined to reach out," he said.

oh no - i recommend that all immigrants take off the whole week - and if your employer gives you a hard time about it  - look him square in the eyes and say "screw you and the USA" - "i f##ked up my country and now i'm here to f##k up yours" - i think this will be very effective -

There are things happening in Pennsylvania from what I hear.\n\nIt's time for the people in this country to get up off their butts and go out and do something about it if the federal and local governments will not.\n\nI am sick of the damned whiners and do-gooders who take the side of the illegal mexican immigrant criminals.

Some EDUCATIONAL Reading For Citizens\n\nhttp://www.newswithviews.com/Devvy/kidd185.htm\n\nI have friends who live in the Phoenix area that speak fluent Spanish. Over the weekend before the big marches on April 10, 2006, Spanish speaking radio was sending this message: "Hide what's in your heart today. We know in your heart your allegiance is to Mexico, but today use your head. Americans were upset about Mexican flags and our show of solidarity for reconquista. Now we must wear white shirts and wave the American flags being handed out. It will be difficult because we know in your heart your love is for Mexico, but hide it today."

I have not seen anything on the Internet yet. It seems to me that the ones supporting illegals being in this country are being more racist then the ones trying to kick them out. People need to grow up and answer a question without having to go the racist route in their answers

Where I work, anyone not showing up on Monday, will not have a job on Tuesday.  I love it.  You want to live here and get all the American rights, act like one.  If not please go home.

There is controversy. I know someone who had to teach the foreigner who was taking her job what to do. It's rough up here in the Mitten, but how can one protest against something going on overseas when it's easier to protest what's going on at home?\n\nAfter all, we need jobs here NOW. Illegal immigrants are taking away those chances. We also need the jobs overseas, but we can't be immediately affected by them (in terms of, if the owners said they'll come back, they won't be back for months or maybe years.)

The one thing you are wrong about it was not organized by people who entered this country illegally. These illegals are not educated enough to put on an Easter hunt no less a mass protest. This is done by very organized advocates for a political power agenda. These people are the most anti American group in the country and dangerous.\nThey are gaining more power political. \nWe have let this issue get so far out of hand. No matter what happens tomorrow it is only the beginning.

August 24, 2000 ( < Notice The Date)\nWeb posted at: 6:12 p.m. EDT (2212 GMT)\nhttp://archives.cnn.com/2000/WORLD/americas/08/24/fox.us.04/\n\nFox calls for freer flow of legal immigrants, investment between U.S. and Mexico\nLooks to open doors between northern neighbors\n\nWASHINGTON -- Mexican President-elect Vicente Fox on Thursday called on the United States to spend less defending its southern border and more on investing in Mexico so that Mexicans won't feel the need to migrate north of the border. \n\nThe Last Ten Words Of That Phrase Makes Me LMFAOff\n\n\nA close, personal friendship with President George W. Bush has given Mexicos President Vicente Fox the opportunity to purposely allow (or even send) Millions of Criminals, Thugs, Anarchists, and Potential Terrorists to swarm over our southern border in breathtaking numbers. \n(Nearly half of all Illegal Aliens currently living in the U.S. came here since Bush became president in 2000.) \n\n\nShort Answer - With Troops On The Border, Foxes Whole Plan Gets Shot To Hell\n\nHes Been Working Very Hard For 6 Years, \nSending His Poverty To Us, \nSo He Wouldnt Have To Develop His Nation\n\nHe WILL Be Very Vocal About This\nAs He Has Been In The Past \nRegarding U.S.Immigration Policies\n\nFolks.........(For The Past 25 Years Or So) The U.S. is being Invaded by People from Another Nation - Ever Since REAGAN Granted Amnesty To 2.7 Million In 1986, They HAVE NOT STOPPED COMING!!! .\n\nOn January 9, 2004, President Bush proposed a guest worker program - a thinly veiled amnesty for illegal aliens. \nA February 29, 2004, Fox News article subsequently stated that from 50 percent to 90 percent of illegal aliens apprehended claimed they were coming here for the "amnesty" (their words). One Border Patrol officer stated that "They believe that they are only responding to an invitation." \n\nEl Presidente Vicente Fox's administration has embraced this reality. In fact, increasing the number of Mexicans working illegally in the United States is among Mexico's highest foreign policy objectives. \n\nThus, in orchestrating this war on America, the Mexican state is representing the desires of the Mexican people as a whole. \n\nWhat are these desires? \n\n(1) Political revanchism—to regain control of the territories Mexico lost to the U.S. in 1848, thus avenging themselves for the humiliations they feel they have suffered at our hands for the last century and a half; \n\n(2) Cultural imperialism—to expand the Mexican culture and the Spanish language into North America; and especially \n\n(3) Economic parasitism—to maintain and increase the flow of billions of dollars that Mexicans in the U.S. send back to their relatives at home every year, \n(39 BILLION US DOLLARS) \nA major factor keeping the chronically troubled Mexican economy afloat and the corrupt Mexican political system cocooned in its status quo. \n\nThese motives are shared by the Mexican masses and the elites. \n\nAccording to a Zogby poll in 2002, 58 percent of the Mexican people believe the U.S. Southwest belongs to Mexico, and 57 percent believe that Mexicans HAVE THE RIGHT TO FREELY ENTER the United States without U.S. permission. Only small minorities disagreed with these propositions.
