So until you can cough up an *honest* answer about how far you, personally, are willing to go to shelter, feed, clothe, and educate these immigrants (illegal or otherwise), I don't think you deserve an answer to your question, other than liberals certainly aren't doing anything to dissuade these people from insisting on admittance to the U.S.

So when the US was admitting Italians and Irish people, and the equivalent of today's GOP was demonizing them for political advantage (e.g. Charles Linbergh - Am First!)...

Were your ancestors the immigrants?
Or were your ancestors offering up their homes and paying to feed, shelter and clothe the Irish and Italians?

Wow, is that ever an apples and oranges "comparison."  My ancestors were neither Italian nor Irish, but that's really beside the point because they were admitted legally - after waiting for years.  You do realize there is a legal process, open to all who wish to live in the U.S., right?  It often takes years and much patience, but that's just the way it goes.  You can't just jump in front of all of those who have gone through the legal process and waited their turn.

Why do you feel some people are entitled to simply skip all of that and barge in?[/quote]
