Both sides of my wife's family ( her Father's folks, and her Mother's ) came here legally, from Germany.
One set before WWI, the other before WWII.
Her Dad- who was, obviously, German, fought German soldiers in Italy, having volunteered to fight for his new country.
If you want to see a former Democrat get so hopping, spitting mad that she can hardly talk, just mention granting "amnesty" to my wife...
This "issue"-- which a man I used to support, walked the streets for in 2000 and 2004, and formerly admired is pushing-- cuts across party lines, ideology, age, social station, and just about any other common delineator of people you can name.
One example- my black friends are livid- just livid- over the special treatment being offered to illegal aliens.
I could list many others, but I will just say I've had it with "W," the Repubs, and anything associated with compromising my formerly great country's sovereignty.
I will support individual candidates- even Democrats, if they will represent me.
I have not decided what to do about solicitations from The Stupid Party yet... I may print and send them some of these:
Or, I may just cut several ounces of roofer's sheet lead flashing and stuff it in their postage-paid envelopes... every damn one of them I get...
Nothing the Clintons did, made me this angry.
PS- I see Trent Lott- that panty-waist Poobah of the Senate- want to censor dissent now:
Trent Lott: 'Talk radio is running America. We have to deal with that problem'--Here, let me correct that for you Trent,
"Talk radio Free Speech is running America . We have to deal with that problem."
Who do these arrogant bastards think we are? Their slaves? How dare they speak to us in these terms! We are Americans! I’m mad as hell!
TRENT LOTT LASHES OUT AT TALK RADIO: Mickey Kaus notes the irony. Lott's a pretty good indicator of what's wrong with the GOP at any given moment.
Yes, I am Madder than Hell, Itself, and I will move Heaven, and Earth, to see every one of these arrogant, uncaring Sons of Bitches permanently unemployed.
