The emotionally driven among us never stop to ask a couple of simple questions - First, in this age of government entitlements and terrorism, does any particular persons desire to come to America automatically translate into some supposed “right” to come here? For the Leftists and the emotionally driven I think the answer is undeniably yes, albeit for different reasons. Second, does a particular persons desire to come here override the native citizens desire - for whatever reason - to keep them out? Again, for the Leftists/feminists/socialists, the answer would be yes.
For all of their grand speeches extolling the “will of the people” the Liberals really only care about the will of the people when it matches their own schemes. Otherwise, the will of the people will be savagely attacked and denigrated as racist, nativist (whatever that means) and worse, which in fact we have seen in the past few months.
“and any other politicians who disagreed with them or sought a more workable solution than ship them back and build high, high walls had their rhetorical heads smashed repeatedly against the rhetorical curbside”
Get it? The enlightened emotives in government courageously tried for “a more workable solution”, didn’t they? Obviously they know best and we simply need to accept that. Even the author has a few noble “dents”. How courageous.
“whatever political fall-out or legislative impotence comes from once more refusing to deal realistically...”
Again, the only “realistic” solution is to give away large sections of this country and its wealth and ignore the long term consequences. See how simple it all is? Now don’t we all feel soooo good?
I am more angry by the day about the immigration fiasco and our feckless and duplicitous governments refusal to simply enforce its own damn laws. At some point, the pols and the media I think will be overwhelmed by the anger of the average citizen who feels like they’re being used as servants of the noble “enlightened”, which are code words for arrogant corrupt elitists. As to what that anger mean exactly, I just don’t know.
BUMP
Bumpity Bump!
