Immigration vs. Irrigation

One of the most apparent events that have happened with our nation’s elected officials is their complete misunderstanding of the wants of those who elected them. Americans are not happy with Washington’s view of enforcing current law. It seems that our Congressmen and Senators as well as the executive branch, namely W, have lost focus on the importance what it means to be an American. This is a land that was established by those seeking a better life. People immigrated here following the rules that are dictated by either Britain, initially, and the United States after that. If you did not meet the requirements, you went home.

Now we have something akin to the gold rush of ’49 with people on our southern border flocking to our country. Our government has done as little as possible to stem this flood. We continue to keep our border virtually unguarded and open to virtually everyone that can sneak across. I do not mind these folks immigrating to our country. What I find the most appalling is our government’s unwillingness to enforce the current laws. They prefer to shirk their responsibility by trying to ram a new looser set of rules that grant amnesty to the estimated 12 million illegals.

Basically, our elected officials are hosing the American public. Instead of doing the right thing and living up to the responsibility they accepted when they took office, they are ignoring the will of the people and creating bigger fiefdoms for themselves. I say we need to throw all of the bastards out. That is not meant to be gender specific. We need to remove the entrenched elite from our nation’s capital and get a new group of soon to be entrenched elite in place. At least we may have a few years of rational legislation before the lunacy begins again. As the Joker says in the 1st Batman movie, “This town needs an enema.”
