Vaya Somewhere Else, Pendejos!

Sometimes, you read things that just make you mad. If you’ve got a temper anything like mine, it happens several times per day. Street signs will do it. As a case in point, check out the following from our President.

There are times when I actually regret voting for the man. Then I remember Kerry and Edwards, and suddenly I feel better.

However, this immigration issue still hacks me off. I don’t give a rat’s butt whether or not they are “guest workers.” They’ll still be in my country, getting free health care, education for their children, refusing to learn to speak English, and filing lawsuits when they get in car wrecks. They’ll still get a great deal of benefits from my tax dollars and insurance premiums. They’ll still try and overstay their visas. In other words, Bush’s little guest worker scheme will do precisely nothing to alleviate the problem.

Let’s get something straight: there are ten million illegal immigrants in this country right now. More are sneaking in every day. Hospitals in the border states are shutting down because they have to care for them. Schools are being overloaded with their children. Our justice system is crowded with their criminals and charlatans. Why will our government do nothing to prevent this problem?

Vicente Fox will get to send more people over here, so that his government doesn’t have to take care of them. Every person who sneaks in here is one person less for Fox to worry about on his budget. Remember, Mexico has socialized medicine. If it was so freaking wonderful, why are people crossing the border to get treated here? Answer that one, liberals.

I’ve got nothing against immigration. I am fully aware everyone in this country descended (with the exception of the native Indians) from people who snuck in here or fled from somewhere else. I’m still all for it. However, any new citizens need to be vetted by Immigration. They need to be screened to see if they are terrorists, have some loathsome disease, or criminal tendencies. If they do, keep them out.

The argument that illegals do the jobs that nobody else will is pretty hackneyed. The market can compensate for this problem. Yeah, the cost of your hamburger might go up a bit. The cost of everything else will probably plummet. I’ve got no problems with this.

A whole lot of problems will get fixed if we curb the illegal immigration problem. Form our healthcare system to our justice system, illegals cost the taxpayer billions of dollars each year. Enough is enough. If Bush’s party won’t do it for us, we need to find a more conservative alternative.
