We Dont Need No Stinkin' Pundits

For all Lou Dobbs talking the borders are not broken, whether keeping out terrorists or brown people. We could build a wall from south Florida to San Diego and block Canada too, but if wealthy terrorists in caves wanted to "attack" they could. There's at least one group among the several deranged sociopathic organizations residing in America who would be willing to "attack" and place blame on the appropriate patsy.

Dobbs is correct only in that tightening border control and law will crimp the style of coyotes, and raises the price of coming to El Norte. But, other than leaving Black folks alone and filling US prisons with more brown people, stiffer penalities will not stop many illegals.

Border control is controlled as much as the ruling elite want it to be.

Is there a boredom driving folks to shop for anything that sounds like a "humanitarian" cause? Sometimes folks just buy things on impulse. Who benefits from millions of immigrants working cheap? Cui bono? Big business and small get their wish and liberals hand it to them. I predict this latest political round will go the way every other immigrant dispute has – amnesty, in one form or another, made to look like a win-win for both parties.

I studied some of the "logic" behind the justification of our cyclic amnesty for illegal immigrants. Some writer writes "there are no illegal humans." Sounds like the liberal equivalent to a "choose life" bumper sticker. I'll agree the use of "aliens" sounds dumb, not because it conjures up images of racism and bigoty but images of Sigourney's odyssey with an acid-bleeding alien. (I guess you could say Ripley was bigoted against the Alien's race though.)

A representative from La Raza on Lou Dobbs claims immigrants "pay in more than they take out" and she knows this because Social Security has the invalid SS numbers paid into which SS will never be able to pay back to because the number was phony. Do these numbers come from the same government that misplaced a few trillion at the Pentagon?

She cited a 500 billion figure paid in by illegal immigrants - but are those numbers the total over the past 30, 40, 50 years or last year alone? She also remarked the figure was arrived at by taking the Hispanic sounding surnames and adding up the contribution. My surname is often mistaken as Hispanic – but it's not. Lets hope her counters know their surnames. Many times I have heard Guzman in Latin America – so on their list is that counted as a social security paying Hispanic or a white guy on the lam?

The bigger question is why SS doesn't haul in employers who accept fake SS numbers? Surely a pattern can be seen. How many times can an employer claim he's been tricked into hiring illegal immigrants? Talk about a turnip wagon, or is it melon? I forget my racial vegetables.

BushCo has more Hispanic support than liberals acknowledge or want to admit. Due I think in large part to common cultural values. I.e. women know their place (at least in public), male superiority, ethnocentric, and most upper class affluent Latinos are sufficiently white male enough to find a safe haven in tight-assed macho hooyah neoconservative circles.

I have questions : 1) Where were the massive Mexico flag waving protestors during the more recent anti-war marches? 2) Where are progressive/liberals when Haitians, Black Dominicans, etc. are turned back by the boatloads or jailed and deported? And 3) What response if 12-20 million Black immigrants illegally crossed the border every few years? We'd be looking at an entirely different legislation and spin. There certainly wouldn't be signs in Zulu and Swahili in public bathrooms.

(When Dobbs mentioned the Mexico flag waving at the protests the La Raza lady responded that folks celebrate St. Pat's day and wave the Irish flag. Excuse me hon, but I must have missed massive Irish flag waving among all the shamrock, leprechauns, and green beer. And isn't there a difference between celebrating and prostesting? Anyway, remember what we progressives think of flag waving, wrapping self in a flag, etc. so both Dobbs and La Raza score high on the flag bull-shitometer.)

Talk about making common cause – best be knowing who's cause is what and remember we have one political party disguised as two who work only to their own benefit. Some prominent Black pols are attacked for supporting stiff penalties on illegals. I.e. Kasim Reed of Georgia. Maybe liberals in Georgia need to take a longer harder look at the Georgia textile industry. Look at the once unionized J H RUTTER-REX MFG CO (makers of Army combat uniforms) now nonunion, deemed a sweatshop by many with most workers earning $6.50/hr without healthcare. That came about not because of global competition – but cheap labor, immigrant labor, illegal labor, too many hands in the field.

Black liberals, if they're honest about it, know that the whiter lighter skin Hispanic has not been there for Black causes.The solution would be to join forces with all, not on one specific cause or the other, but in order to clean corruption in government, to the betterment of every race, creed, color. But the "fights" are cut and dried already, neatly divided and packaged for us, by MSM and the politicians. Keep our minds from dwelling on the real criminals. If you think Mexico's government is corrupt – remember US pols have been in bed with the Mexican elite a long time.

Anyway immigration, legal or otherwise, may soon peter out as the latest official reports state that Mexico's future is as bright as our own. :)

But what the hell, if pundits weren't shilling on immigration it would be gay marriage or abortion and I really don't care who is gay and who has abortion, anymore than I care who is legal or illegal. Too bad rallying to clean up the broken executive, legislative, and judicial branches isn't on the agenda.
