May Day, May Day, May Day, Mexican Standoff

I don't know how everybody else feels about it, but
to me I think Hispanic people in this country, legally
or illegally, made a huge public relations mistake with
their recent demonstrations.
I don't blame anybody in the world for wanting to
come to the United States of America, as it is a truly
wonderful place. But when the first thing you do
when you set foot on American soil is illegal it is flat
out wrong and I don't care how many lala land left
heads come out of the woodwork and start trying to
give me sensitivity lessons.
I don't need sensitivity lessons, in fact I don't have
anything against Mexicans! I just have something
against criminals and anybody who comes into this
country illegally is a criminal and if you don't believe it
try coming into America from a foreign country
without a passport and see how far you get.
What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that
it's tantamount to saying, I am going to come into
your country even if it means breaking your laws and
there's nothing you can do about it.
It's an in-your-face action and speaking just for me I
don't like it one little bit and if there were a half
dozen pairs of gonads in Washington bigger than
English peas it wouldn't be happening.
Where are you, you bunch of lilly livered, pantywaist,
forked tongued, sorry excuses for defenders of The
Constitution? Have you been drinking the water out
of the Potomac again?
And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will
probably be so pork laden and watered down that it
won't mean anything anyway. Besides, what good is
an other law going to do when you won't enforce the
ones on the books now?
And what ever happened to the polls guys? I thought
you folks were the quintessential finger wetters. Well
you sure ain't paying any attention to the polls this
time because somewhere around eighty percent of
Americans want something done about this mess, and
mess it is and getting bigger everyday.
This is no longer a problem, it is a dilemma and
headed for being a tragedy. Do you honestly think
that what happened in France with the Muslims can't
happen here when the businesses who hire these
people finally run out of jobs and a few million
disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?
If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators,
knuckle under on this and refuse to do something
meaningful it means that you care nothing for the
kind of country your children and grandchildren will
inherit.
But I guess that doesn't matter as long as you get re-
elected. Shame on you.
One of the big problems in America today is that if
you have the nerve to say anything derogatory about
any group of people (except Christians) you are going
to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a
bigot and anything else they can think of to call you.
Well I've been pounded by the media before and I'm
still rockin' and rollin' and when it comes to speaking
the truth I fear not. And the truth is that the
gutless, gonadless, milksop politicians are just about
to sell out the United States of America because
they don't have the intestinal fortitude to stand up
to the face reality.
And reality is that we would never allow any other
group of people to have 12 million illegals in this
country and turn around and say, Oh it's ok, ya'll can
stay here if you'll just allow us to slap your wrist.
And I know that some of you who read this column
are saying Well, what's wrong with that?
I'll tell you what's wrong with it. These people could
be from Mars as far as we know. We don't know who
they are, where they are or what they're up to and
the way the Congress is going we're not going to.
Does this make sense? Labor force you say? We
already subsidize corporate agriculture as it is, must
we subsidize their labor as well?
If these people were from Haiti would we be so fast
to turn a blind eye to them or if they were from
Somalia or Afghanistan? I think not.
All the media shows us are pictures of hard working
Hispanics who have crossed the border just to try to
better their life. They don't show you pictures of the
Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang
who came across the same way the decent folks did.
They don't tell you about the living conditions of the
Mexican illegals some fat cat hired to pick his crop.
- I want to make two predictions.
- No. 1: This situation is going to grow and fester
until it erupts in violence on our streets while the
wimps in Washington drag their toes in the dirt and
try to figure how many tons of political hay they can
make to the acre.
- No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border
with some kind of weapon of mass destruction and
set it off in a major American city after which there
will be a backlash such as this country has never
experienced and the Capitol building in Washington
will probably tilt as Congressmen and Senators rush
to the other side of the issue.
I don't know about you but I would love to see just
one major politician stand up and say, I don't care
who I make mad and I don't care how many votes I
lose, this is a desperate situation and I'm going to
lead the fight to get it straightened out.
I don't blame anybody for wanting to come to
America, but if you don't respect our immigration laws
why should you respect any others.
- And by the way, this is America and our flag has
stars and stripes. Please get that other one out of
my face.
- God Bless America
