My favorite saying these days is … “Too bad ignorance isn’t painful!” And, that’s how I feel about the politicians who have allowed the recent invasion of uneducated and poverty-stricken Mexicans. However, contrary to a comment below – – it wasn’t “liberals” who exacerbated this problem: The instigator was Ronald Reagan, ably assisted by G.H.W. Bush, and significantly expanded (by lack of enforcement) by G.W. Bush. Even if one blames Clinton for signing NAFTA (which I do) – – it was Reagan and the two Bush boys who allowed the invasion to get completely out of control! (But, of course, it isn’t likely that a “liberal” will lead an effort to stop the stupidity, either!)

1. ON IMMIGRATION – it is not merely the numbers but the quality of the immigrants. Are these Einsteins and Fermis seeking freedom and who can contribute to Western civilization or the 52 relatives of Pedro the gardiner who will go on welfare and inhabit some barrio/slum.

2. ON CONSPRIACIES – it always amazes me how people can think that Bush or Cheney or whatever are plotting nefarious conspiracies when their incompetance

Disclaimer: I am a stupid American.

Unfortunately for me I am not as stupid as the average American and therefore I have clearly seen what the liberals have been doing to my country for the last 40 years and there is no one standing at the brink to save us. We are toast because you can’t cure stupid! We have done ourselves in..what the Nazis and Commies could not accomplish we are and have done to ourselves, committed cultural suicide.

Well, the facts speak clearly, moreso than the doublespeak of politicians. I guess it comes down to that old saying, “Those who don’t learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”

Perhaps I should update that a bit…

“Those who do not learn from history are doomed.” Yeah, that about says it all for the United States, Europe and pretty much any country that does not control immigration and protect its “native” citizens.
