Do we really need airline security?

Why is our country spending millions on air security and also invading air travelers' privacy with xray-type machines? Why not just let anyone fly in over our borders? We could save a lot of money. And why are we enforcing the Canadian border with enthusiasm? If we pull the border guards from there, we could save additional millions.

If we allow people to flow over the Mexican border unchecked, what's the point of enforcing our other borders? Are terrorists coming over the southern border less dangerous? Could it be that if Islamic extremists filter through Mexico, we can automatically assume the Mexicans' loving and peaceful attitude toward us will render terrorists peaceful, loving immigants, too?

And what's the deal with accusations of racism against Mexicans? Seems to me the Mexicans have been coming in ILLEGALLY with little enforcement of the laws (getting a free ride) while all other borders are tightening. Doesn't this make a case for racism against Canadians and fly-ins? Do we catch and release other illegals, even when they are obviously law breakers above and beyond the original sin of entering illegally? Nope. Only Mexicans get that break. Seems to me Mexicans are victims of favoritism, not racism.

OofDah! Let's be fair and unbiased. Let's tighten the southern border to compare with the northern and fly-in borders. And while we're at it, let's treat Mexican law-breakers like we do other illegals - with no favoritism for brown skin and Latino accents.

"Crazed Sex Poodle"

What kind of description is "crazed sex poodle?" It conjures up some very disturbing mind pictures. Did he cling to her leg, like a poorly-behaved little dog? Eew!

Although calling an expensive message therapist to his hotel room late in the evening doesn't seem innocent, I have serious doubts as to the veracity of the accusation because of the woman's description of the incident. I mean, where's the puke, the vomit?

OofDah! Wouldn't any self-respecting woman reflexively throw up if Al Gore's tongue was down her throat?

Who Reads What?

"Sir" Paul's cheap and misleading comment about libraries was tacitly approved by Obama, a man we know reads daily -- from his teleprompter -- but eschews reading laws that he condemns with vigor.

The "superior" Obama poses as an intellectual giant but performs as an inept blowhard. He lays claim to exceptional intelligence but refuses to release his transcripts. Why? Would they put the lie to his claims?

I'm not Bush's greatest fan, but this "painting" of Bush as intellectually challenged by people who are truth challenged is unconscionable. In actuality, Bush was a reader:

I also question whether the dissolute-looking "Sir" Paul has graced the halls of a library in recent years - at least with the intention of actually checking out a volume. And could he read it if he did?

OofDah!

Ya Gotta Wonder

Ya gotta wonder what office Sir Paul agreed not to run for to qualify for a job offer at the WH.

How much could we reduce the jobless rate if all the unemployed offered to NOT run for an office? Could the WH concoct enough sham jobs to accommodate them?

Playing the Hate Game

Why are we encouraged to hate the rich (the definition changes every day), Wall Streeters (many wage earners invest individually or their retirement plans invest for them), corporations, bankers, business owners, etc?

Why are ethnic groups encouraged to remain separate with separate languages, customs, allegiances, rallies demanding the downfall of the US, and even their own laws in their enclaves (Sharia law which is antithetical to US law and democracy)? Shouldn't they be encouraged to assimilate to strengthen our country?

Is it all in the interest of divisiveness, so politicians can wreak havoc on separate groups, through taxes and other laws? Is it to keep us from caring what happens to the others?

Remember the German, Pastor Martin Niemoller, who tried to explain how Germans could have allowed the Nazis to purge group after group without raising a fuss. The largest and most known of the targeted groups were the Jews, who the Nazis encouraged the others to hate. By and large the Germany was a nation of intelligent, hardworking, normal people, but they were divided by well-promoted hate and intolerance.

Essentially, this is what Pastor Niemoller said:

First they came for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.
Then they came for the unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak up.

OofDah! The hate game can be dangerous to your health and well-being! Stop playing it!

An algorian moment.

I Love It!

Now a reporter, or one who claims to be a reporter, blames Georgie Bush for the split of Albert and Tippy Gore.

I've never had occasion to use RONTF etc, but this almost makes it!

When will the blame game stop? Is anyone winning?

OofDah!!

Hey California!

Hey California! Boycotting Arizona? Nice move. You don't have the guts to take care of your problem - instead of asking the government to enforce the laws so you don't go broke, you expect more national tax dollars to subsidize illegals.

It seems to me Arizona is making the more responsible move. They want to protect the border before more drugs and murderers cross into the US. They want to protect the entire country from terrorists crossing into the US. They want to eliminate the drain on national tax dollars.

You don't care about the danger to the nation's safety, and you don't care how many of our national tax dollars are misdirected to non-nationals.

Arizona is the more responsible, the more deserving state - and with the enforcement of the laws that were already in place will be a more safe place to vacation.

Who'd want to visit your dirty, tax-grabbing, self-absorbed, unsafe state?

I know! I'll bet the Arizona illegals would love to come to California! You are posturing as people who'd love to drain your state's treasury to welcome the drug lords and others, so instead of a boycott that will help no one, why don't you just set up buses to bring the "oppressed illegals" from Arizona to your state?

Oh, and then quit asking for national tax dollars and dig into your own pockets and break your personal home budget to support them.

It's just the right thing for you to do. C'mon you are morally superior. Just do it.

Eww! Don't Move in Next Door to Me!

I sympathize with the Palins. I don't want that icky guy next to me, and I don't have any little kids. I have little dogs and I would fear for their safety. He's a scary looking, scary acting puke.
