Is Illegal Immigration Making You Sick?
Literally?
The unchecked flow of illegal border-hoppers from the south is washing
over us like a Texas flash flood. It negatively impacts our bottom line,

it). But this is no cause for celebration. I still say they're overlooking
the most critical threat. Consider the scope of the problem:
