all: feel free to cut & paste any elements of my recent email to the White House:
Although I have little hope that anyone in the administration seems to be taking note, I will continue to “vote” my displeasure (a mild word indeed) regarding how the administration is choosing to push an intellectually and politically bankrupt approach to immigration “reform”.
The approach is also morally bankrupt in that it lies about the realities of the illegal immigration situation, lies about the abject failures of the administration and Congress to address it since 9/11, and lies about the true nature of the objections being raised by millions of Americans. We are not nativist yahoos or racist rednecks, nor are we ignorant sheep who would “support the bill if we simply knew the details” (cf. Mr. Snow).
No, we are people who are opposed PRECISELY because we know the details, and we are deeply offended at the mischaracterizations of the bill’s opponents made by the administration.
The administration is still whistling in the dark, seemingly willfully ignorant of the lasting, indeed catastrophic, damage being done to its credibility among the American people.
“The ruling class WILL have its way!”

The Founders did not agree.
Yep.
