The President Speaks

So we are going to send our National Guardsmen to the border to essentially baby sit the border patrol.
We are going to install:

$$$$$$$ high tech fences
$$$$$$$ motion sensors
$$$$$$$ infrared cameras

The 6000 members fron the guard will operate the systems of surveillance, they wil train, but they will have no real law enforcement duties- Oh- OK.
The President went on to assure us that Mexico is our friend, however I feel saddened that the President does not seem to have any real concept of friendship.
Friends do not drop by and refuse to leave. They do not expect to be fed and treated medically- all on your dime. Friends do not, after knowing that they are unwanted, invite the rest of their family to be of further burden upon you economically and socially.

After months of loud propaganda we hear that yes, we will have a foreign worker program, one that matches eager workers with eager American employers. Apparently all the workers here are NOT JUST WORKING ON PICKING PRODUCE.
I am guessing that they have moved on to the American jobs that pay a real wage.

The President has no respect for those of us who have voted him into office. This is really difficult for me to accept- a Republican who does not care for America.
Lets move on to the TAMPER PROOF CARD: Chris Matthews From Hardball was practically salivating over this piece of excrement, he actually thinks that it is a great idea.
Chis is nothing short of precious.

A) NOTHING is tamperproof
B) What is the next step when those who prosper from the illegal alien trade tamper with the cards?

WILL WE ALL HAVE TO CARRY NATIONAL ID CARDS???
DID THE PRESIDENT - WHO THINKS NOTHING OF SPYING ON AMERICANS SLIP US A SIP OF TAINTED SPEECH?

I have said it before, as My President eagerly offers freedom to the world the more he works to destroy mine.
Mark My Words- A National card for illegal aliens- will lead to the 'homeland protection necessity' of a National ID card for all of us.

Americans should NOT placate Vincente Fox

As a conservative I am a bit anxious to see what the President has to say about the problems along our southern border.
If the people on te Fox Network are correct- the President plans to position 5000 or more of our already stretched National Guardsmen on the southern border to assist the Border Patrol.
Adding insult to our ongoing economic injuries the President had to ensure Vincente Fox that he had nothing to worry about and that the presence of the military on the border does not indicate a plan to militarize the border.

Why was this assurance important to Fox?

Well, roughly 85% of the 12 million or more illegal aliens in the USA send enough bucks back to Mexico, enough to represent the #1 reason the Mexicans have not yet called Fox on his incompetence.
Our President Bush wants to assure Mexico that we will still be their #1 financial provider.
President Bush wants to assure the mexicans that despite what the majority of legal residents and citizens want he will ignore his base and every other American to satisfy mexico.
President Bush will continue to beat the dead horse of Mexicans coming here to pick cherries, lettuce whatever; he will ignore the facts that there are construction workers - Americans - who have been passed over for illegal aliens, this during a housing boom!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not in my wildest nightmares would I have thought that a Republican admnistration
would choose to govern so carelesssly and thoughtlessly.

Really- where are your manners!!

As a child my Grandmother was big on manners- elbows off the table, chewing with mouths closed, do not discuss money with others, never brag, NEVER SWEAR!! NEVER.
Of course, I was born in another country and when I moved to the U.S. I realised that these rules were not commonly supported by the majority. Unfortunately it has only gotten worse and now people curse as if it is a substitution for breathing.
During a free moment a few mornings ago I tuned into The View- that 'charming' roundtable of women that I suppose represent all the groups of women in our society- or at least the ones that count to feminists.
In that one show, these women referred to each other a "b****es more than three times. They were laughing and tossing themselves around in such a way that I was actually embarrassed for them.
Meredith Viera(sp) after becomming annoyed by one of the women declared "I am so over you B****es" No doubt she was referring to her new job as co-host at The Today Show on NBC. I guess Matt Lauer will have to get used to vulgar remarks, but then again I get the feeling that a male co-host and millions of dollars could buy her some manners.
But the damage is done, millions of women watch the view, and many of them probably feel that these highly paid women are in the know, and indeed, many may actually feel that they should be regarded and their actions copied.
While I do believe that manners should be taught at home, those individuals who hold the previledge of reaching the ears of our society should clean up their language.
I often wonder what people who curse do when overheard by their children. What do they do when their daughters respond to the salutation "B***H" from a boy.
Regrettably, I think that many adults care more about their momentary gratification, than about their daily contamination of our society.

Research on democracy

I have discovered that doing research for a book often leads to tons of other ideas for books more interesting that the one on the storyboard. I plan my book with schetches and bubbles of ideas, this keeps me happy and engaged because writing is brutal.
Laughing at myself about the sorry fact that I am a Republican in a world where all the repubs seem desperate to behave like democrats, also keeps the sad chuckles coming.

I am disgusted with my party. I am troubled by my president.

I may very well have a file at NSA headquarters because a fews weeks ago I deviated from my normal calling pattern and telephoned a gentleman in Boston who is from Morocco. Ok I was inquiring about his handmade pillows for my business but who cares!
As an immigrant I was one of those goofy people who actually believed in this "freedom" that is continually promised by this country - mea culpa
It saddens me to realize that President Bush is more concerned with the goings on of the average American than with the fact that we have millions of undocumented OOOPS
illegal aliens streaming across the border.

Apparently the government, according to President Bush, is not "trolling" but instead they are seeking to spot broken trends in one calling history. When you listen to our impartial journalists you get the feeling that they are all ggofy too. They keep polling - asking Mr. and Mrs. America if they will just give a little more freedo to keep from being blown to bits or whatever...
Those who bring us the news do not seem to realize that the government already has practically everything on us. They have access to our:

"private" emails
"private" telephone records
"private" credit records
"private" medical histories

Our banks report our every move to them and Americans talk of sacrificing even more fredom to ensure their next breath.

FACT: Only God can ensure your next breath

They have been so anesthesized by the media and indeed by their own decision to be bystanders in their own democracy that they do not realize that there is nothing left to sacrifice. They worry about their own overspent undersaved tommorrows and they think nothing of what they will leave for their children.
I am sick when a Republican President for whom I voted twice - Yes twice - decides that he has to use the power of the most noble office in the world to work out his sick issues.
President George Bush, is now dealing with his broken record. He has chosen not to behave rationally but to react like a truculent child.

He has been chastized for breaking a precious gift and he is now smashing what is left in spite. I pray that he stops before all is lost. We are now engaged in a fight for freedom ( whatever the heck that means) in Iraq, the Taliban in Afghanistan seems to have reorganized and these wars will be managed by the next administration.

Say what if the Republicans do not retain power?

Are we comfortable allowing Democrats such open access to the lives of Americans?

Do the Republicans believe that once they rape the Constitution with the slimy tool of semantics that the Democrats will politely look away?

Do we really want Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton peering into our lives?

Goerge Bush has duped the Christians (I'm one too) and the republicans into thinking that freedom is his focus around the world, when it has become quite clear that it is the real freedom of Americans that was the focus all along.
