You know, I haven't ever really said much about immigration up until now. But I feel like there are a couple of points that need to be made.
- Immigration should be done the legal way. If you break that law, you should be deported. I'm not thinking we have to bar these people from ever coming here again, but only legally. Border patrol should be stepped up. We should be less tolerant of those who violate our sovereignty. But we should continue to welcome those who want to come here legally and live the American Dream.
- Arizona has the right idea. They are simply doing the job that the Federal government should be doing, but refuses to do because of the politically incorrect nature of it. They have the right to check to see if someone should be in their state legally. There is nothing in the United States Constitution against it. Meantime, Mexico is getting a little worked up, to say the least...
The Democrats (and any incumbent really) really have to play their cards right this coming election of they want to stay in office. I would personally like to see them hang themselves, along with their socialist/environmentalist/politically correct agenda, and get a conservative majority back in there. But, if they want to stay there, they're not doing it well. Any smart politician knows you have to move to the center in both word and action if you want to stay in action. The Democrats are continually moving full speed ahead directly to the left, particularly on this issue of immigration reform. Taking the State of Arizona to court over this issue is political suicide, and will only make the people angrier than they already are.
Summary: The Dems are screwing up, big time. I'm not stopping them, though. Go for it, Mr. President. And hopefully we'll be calling your friends Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid by their new title, Minority Leader if they're able to maintain their congressional offices at all.
