Not to startanother debate on the fence issue, but did anyone REALLY believe that it was going to happen? Unless of course Haliburton has a fence construction department. And the press one for English issue is just the tip of the iceburg. When in DC for Rolling Thunder I had to hit the ATM......it gave me 12 (yes gentle reader TWELVE as in a DOZEN) language choices...some of which I couldn't even read and understand. So I asked. Included were Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, German, Spanish, Croatian,Portugese, English, Italian, Dutch, Indonesian, and Swahili. I was also told that, if the language I needed wasn't displayed please come inside......sheesh. Now true it is the nations capital and there are loads of tourists but go to any Walmart of Home Depot and NO ONE SPEAKS ENGLISH. Trying to buy some rope was like being at the Tower of Babel. I finally found a manager and raise hell and was told that: They could not deny a person employment because they couldn't speak ENGLISH.....where the hell are we going as a country?
Keep going the way you are, and your country will be a big, liberal, "we love everyone, accept everyone, hug everyone, and allow everything" machine... like we have unfortunately become in Canada. Its is unbelieveable what has happened here.
Personally, I welcome all immigrants who wish to come to this country, share the freedoms we enjoy, and assimilate into our diverse culture. What I oppose is those who willfully ignore our laws and those who encourage it. This is a nation of immigrants, but of legal immigrants. Those who have worked hard to become a part of America. It is unfair to tell those wishing to come here from Asia, Europe, or elsewhere "take a number" while turning a blind eye to those who illegally entered from our Southern border.
Our tax money was earmarked to build a 700+ mile fence to secure our border for National security. To date they have built 12 miles, half of which was already planned in San Diego. At that rate it would take 60 years to complete.
Yet nobody is holding our elected officials or president to their promises and laws passed only a year ago. Whether you love or hate our president, people need to wake up and realize that he has betrayed this country and especially his own party by selling out to Vicente Fox and foreign interests. This is no longer about liberal or conservative, democrat or republican, but about liars and thieves! At this point I'd gladly vote for a bunch of trial lawyers to run our country. At least with them you know they are snakes from the start. I'm so tired of all the handwringing. I wish someone would have the guts to stand up during one of these debates and declare "I will enforce the Secure Fence Act of 2006 and hold employers criminally responsible for hiring undocumented workers". I'd vote for that person in a heartbeat regardless of political party.
Pissed off indeed!
How dare the idiots even think such crap! I swear, I were cruising the scoot by when they were doing that, even as much as I love the bike, I'd feel compelled to ghost ride it right in their masses!
I gonna hammer out a message to my State senator as soon as I'm through here!!
What ticks me off the MOST is the fact that it takes a teenager in HIGH SCHOOL to point out the obvious....I just wish GOVERNMENT SERVENTS would quit serving themselves and do something for the PEOPLE again (LEGAL, honest people...not those taking advantage of every pitfall of the system)!!!
