Immigration man, can I cross the line today ? The hot topic this week. I do have a concern. Why now?
After decades of people crossing borders without playing the paperwork game why is it so important now ? Has the US begun a serious anti-mexican campaign? Have we solved our major problems and this is the next item on the list ?

Lets see, a vote in Afganistan took place, the opium poppy fields are back in bloom, no more front page coverage on the violence in Kabul, so cross that off the list. Bin Laden still on the lam the press never mentions that on page one. Iraq, whats the presidents plan? To win a land war in asia to make up for the last asian war he skipped.
The devastation of Katrina is being treated as well as the devastation of hurricane Andrew in 2004. Pretty much forgotton by those not affected.
Fuel prices steadily rising with Exxon-Mobils bottom line, at least we have some consistency there. Haliburton, spinning off Kellog Brown $ Root so war profits are doing well. India's job boom fueled by american jobs going stronger than a riot in Kashmir.
WalMart still driving the chinese economy faster than a presidential staffer can quit. Health care rules for the elderly simple enough to be explained in three hours with a nap or two thrown in while waiting for common sense answers.

Medicare and Social Security zipped up nicely in a congressional pay raise session. Education standards rising as fast as we can lower standardized test questions. College tuition exceeding the bull market of the Dow Jones.


I guess imigration is next up. Maybe America's ills are caused by yard maintainence men and maids not speaking proper english. Of course only a C average leader inventing new words like 'DECIDER' could determine that. We should only speak english here. Except for words like Texas which dont originate from the Queens English but some other language.

Maybe that will solve our problems and then my wages can keep up with the price of gas or at least inflation.

Yes of course it will. Then we can go down that list further. Maybe the decider will figure out how homeland securtiy missed all 22 fake bombs sent on the airlines to test the safety of air traffic in the US. That list must have some order I am not familar with.

Maybe we should help more and send in another list. A list of just ten items the people would like to be considered first. I wonder if the people could agree on only ten things to send D.C.?

If you could what would be on your list ?
