If the jobs problem were completely solved tomorrow, would illegal immigration not be a problem?

Of course not, so these silly WSJ polls that say that nobody needs to address illegal immigration are meaningless. War was ranked even lower. So if we get attacked tomorrow, the WSJ editors will say it is not a problem because it ranks so low?

The truth is that the greatest danger to our society and nation is not from outside or even from liberal democrats. It is from the likes of the Wall Street Journal, the Chamber of Commerce, and RINOs, who put greed and personal empowerment ahead of America.

Abraham Lincoln, were he around today, would be repeating his Lyceum speech of 1838, so prophetic of the war to come in 1861, and of our demise today:

At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it?-- Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never!--All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest; with a Buonaparte for a commander, could not by force, take a drink from the Ohio, or make a track on the Blue Ridge, in a trial of a thousand years.

At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

The point is that Perry is strong on enforcement of the border laws and that immigration is the least of the problems facing this country at this time. It ‘s not a matter of “What if” the economy improves.

The country has enough real problems to solve, not the least of which is to get rid of Obama and avoid replacing him with another big government narcissist, like Romney.

Palin is not running. Bachman blew her chances with the Perry attacks and her dissembling over the report that gardisil causes brain damage.

I still like Cain. He at least hasn’t gone on the attack.
