Is the Media on the Side of Illegal Aliens?

Tonight, WJTV-TV 12 in Jackson, Mississippi is planning to air a segment on illegal immigration. Judging from the ad they've been running to promote it, they intend to promote illegal entry into our country.

A little while back, the three major local television news stations here in Metro Jackson, MS aired a story on the arrest of some illegal aliens here who were working in a Chinese restaurant. Our perception is that most illegals are from Mexico. Of course, many of them are. It seems to me that the people who own and control the content of the media want to say to us, "If we deport all the illegals, then we won't have any more Chinese restaurants." Of course, many of us like to eat at those places, me included. It seems that it's just another attempt to turn public opinion against the deportation of illegal aliens.

What will our elected officials do about illegal aliens who have entered our country? Well, my state representative, Jim Ellington (R), hired them to fix his vacation home on the Mississippi Gulf Coast after Hurricane Katrina. We can't count on him to do the right thing. My former state senator, Richard White (R), was defeated by David Blount (D) in the last election when he stopped listening to his constituents. Will the new one do the right thing? I don't know. What has our governor done during his tenure other than quickly rebuild all the casinos that were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina? Our new Republican Lieutenant Governor, Phil Bryant, campaigned on a promise of cracking down on illegal immigration. What has he done? Of course, our Democratic Congress and our disappointing President have refused to do the right thing.

We need to elect good people to office, but before we can do that, we have to be good ourselves. There is a concerted effort against true Christianity in America and in the world. Repentance and obedience to God are our only chance.
