The Wind Up, and the Illegal Pitch... |
The fact that there are people who are not only comfortable but proud of standing up and, indeed, actually lobbying for the invasionary forces in our overwhelmed midst is simply striking. Every news channel is all over this story, and they are finding no shortage of "immigrant spokesmen" ready to go forth into the breach to defend the indefensible.
Today's report in the Washington Times is also illustrative thereof, as it tells us of the "Great American Boycott of 2006" to be conducted on May 1st.
The organizers of said inanity are encouraging the illegal aliens currently here to not go to work, schools or the malls, but to instead attend the gigante march they will be having on the labor movement (read: Communist) holiday in question.
Unfortunately, the thought that never occurs to them is the one to tell the illicit masses, who appear to be at their lockstep beck and call, to perhaps alternatively consider going back to the nations from whence they came.
This is a charge again being led by the Communist and terrorist front-group International A.N.S.W.E.R., whom we mentioned when we spoke previously of these gatherings of those without benefit of citizenship.
And what more appropriate twenty-four hour span to conduct their Comunista activities than the one nomered with the call of a sinking ship.
In addition to the myriad freebies already on proffer from the saps we ostensibly elect to represent us, we now have a bipartisan Senatorial push to further pad the landing whence the illegals leap the border.
The DREAM Act, co-sponsored by Richard Durbin (D-Acapulco), Senator Orrin Hatch (R-Monterrey), and 45 of their well-coutured hermanos y hermanas, would begin the moronic process that is "guest worker" amnesty as well as allow said occupying populace to pay in-state tuition for our ridiculously over-priced and under-performing (with the exception of Socialistically) colleges and universities.

California's Last Borders Man Standing |
Which would mean that American citizens from 49 states would have to pay higher tuition rates to attend UCLA than would the illicit residents of the Golden State of whom we saw so many on March 27th.
(Speaking of which, where were the Immigration and Naturalization Services catch-and-release agents on said day? If ever the phrase "fish in a barrel" was appropriate, this was quintessentially it. It appears they will get another shot at it come May Day; we are not halting respiratory activity awaiting their availing themselves thereof.
At least the illegal aliens here are protesting for the ability to actually do work, rather than the right to merely be at work, in perpetuity, as are the French in droves across the Pond.)
All of this again begs the question: for whom are these elected officials working? We have always thought that President Bush was angling for a position in the Vicente Fox Administration after his two terms; we had no idea that three quarters of the Senate was looking to join him South of the (Porous) Border.
They are most certainly not toiling for those of us who actually belong here, and therefore can (legally) vote, as nearly 90% hereof are against any such notion as amnesty, proposed under this or any other name.
How does it assist the legal high school senior in Nevada to allow the illicit applicant in South Central to pay less to be a Bruin, after first making it easier via affirmative action to become a Bruin?
The answer, of course, is that it certainly does no such thing.
This ideological approach to reconstructing America from the outside in is inimitably destructive, and this is but the latest phase of the "America Last" mentality that has been on the march since the dawn of the domestic Left.
There are over six billion people on the planet; to prioritize each and every one of them above the 280 million that legally reside in this the greatest of nations is to consummately seal its and our doom.
The accusation that opposition to this is anti-Latino is an attempt to dismiss outright those who are making the better argument and thereby avoid meeting them head-on, and misses the larger point.
That we can be wrongly accused of being anti-Hispanic is simply a matter of geography; were the Scandinavian nations bordering ours, we would be just as readily blocking the likes of Bjorn Borg and Bjork (although we should consider doing that with the latter anyway), and susceptible to equally inaccurate anti-Translucent accusations.
As in most things detrimental, we have reached this particular point in incremental advances of Dumbness.
The Move-America-to-the-Back-of-the-Line Movement began in a solely broader sphere, ascribing rightness to any and every nation abroad when they stood in opposition to anything having to do with us. No regime was too crushing, no dictator too brutal, to allow for the chance that perhaps America, just each successive once, might be correct.
The Soviet Union, Chairman Mao's China, the Viet Cong's North Vietnam, Nicaragua's Sandinistas, Fidel Castro's Cuba, the Che Guevara mystique, Hugo Chavez's Venezuela; thugocracies and thugocrats that all enjoyed the historical or current benefit of being held in higher American liberal favor than Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan or George W. Bush's America.
That the modern Left's original guerre noire was birthed alongside them in the Age of Aquarius under a Democrat, John F. Kennedy, escalated under another, Lyndon Johnson, and ended by the hated Republican Milhous, is all lost on those who, by many, many ignorances such as these, made the maxim "Liberals never let the facts get in the way of a good beating" possible, indeed morally certitudinal.
And we have seen the Left's global self-loathing noose tighten dramatically of late. We have Supreme Court Justices citing foreign law and legal decisions in pitiful attempts to justify their extra-planetary rulings on our domestic Constitution.
And now we have the invasion debate, during which we have seen proffered such moronic nostrums as the obligatory nature of our providing food, clothing, shelter, medicine and pocket money to any second grade drop-out who manages to cunningly maneuver his or her way through the multi-tiered fortress that is our border.
But not even that is enough; they must also be put on the fast track to citizenship, with the added benefit of being here while all the others without the advantage of adjacent borders patiently await theirs in their respective elsewheres.
It will be none too long before we are told that we most certainly can not afford tax cuts, not until at the very least every illegal alien is in public housing and paying in-state tuition for our lower education facilities, after skating tax free through the primary and secondary scholastic systems.
This has always been the Left's approach to putting off the dreaded levy lightening; how can we cut when so many are without? With a whole world full of people awaiting access, this could end up being the end-all argument for the defense of the Big Tax.
The underlying point to all of this is that everyone on Planet Earth seems to want to get or be here, save for some who are but apparently wish they were not. Might we propose, with the recent close of Major League Baseball's Hot Stove League, an opening of one of our own, and begin the trading of personnel apace?
We will first proffer Al Gore and Howard Dean for a Nigerian dirt farmer to be named later.
