PREPARING FOR THE SPEECH

I'm preparing myself early for Bush's speech on the illegal immigration problem. I don't expect to be too happy after he's done giving it.

Bush's proposal to temporarily send troops to the border is a politician's way of reassuring the base that something is being done about illegal immigration. NOTE--the word "temporarily" is being used to assuage the current Director of U.S. Immigration, Vicente Fox.

Your leaders in Washington, I think, are about to sell you a bill of goods that will do nothing but further the disintegration of our nation, and I use the term, "leaders," loosely. The real leaders of this once great nation are long since dead.

At this time, about all you can do is email Bush, your representative in the house, and your senator. Not that it will do any good, but it can't hurt, either. Enjoy the speech....

Some words to consider:

"Moderation in the protection of liberty is no virtue; extremism in the defense of freedom is no vice."--AUH2O
