Ann Coulter: A Green Card in Every Pot
Human Events ^ | 30 may 07 | Ann Coulter

Posted on 05/30/2007 3:34:26 PM PDT by rellimpank

Americans -- at least really stupid Americans like George Bush -- believe the natural state of the world is to have individual self-determination, human rights, the rule of law and a robust democratic economy. On this view, most of the existing world and almost all of world history is a freakish aberration.

In fact, the natural state of the world is Darfur. The freakish aberration is America and the rest of the Anglo-Saxon world.

The British Empire once spread the culture of prosperity around the globe -- Judeo-Christian values, tolerance, equality, private property and the rule of law. All recipients of the British Empire's largesse benefited, but the empire's most successful colony was the United States.

The argument that immigrants (particularly the illegal ones) are doing jobs that Americans won’t do it ludicrous. Even with our huge illegal alien problem, there are still regions of the country where few such aliens reside. So who does those jobs in those regions? Americans, that’s who.

If an area doesn’t have any illegals hanging around, does it mean they have no construction or landscaping work being performed there? No farming or mining? No factories?

Can any of the illegal alien supporters point us to a region of the country that is economically dying for lack of illegal alien labor?

When Ted Kennedy, George Bush, the New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal tell us that aliens are doing jobs Americans won’t do, what they really mean is that aliens are doing those jobs at pay scales lower than Americans would tolerate, without any worker protections, etc. Send the illegal aliens home and those jobs will still be done, it’ll just require the employer to pay out First World wages rather than Third World wages.

Oh, and Dianne Feinstein would have to pay her gardener and limo driver a living wage.

Yep, that’s from the series by the late great John D. MacDonald.

What a great writer MacDonald was. When I was reading his books I wanted to meet him and then I found out he’d died a couple of years before I started reading him.

I liked how he always had a color in his titles.

His non-Travis McGee stuff was also terrific. For example, he wrote the book which was made into the movie Cape Fear two different times, and it was a hit both times.

With that title all I can add is a salute to Los Angeles Mayor Antonio [”We Clean Your Toilets!”] Villaraigosa.
