Get Ready to Bend Over, Gringo

The million migrant march is over and the politicians are lining up to kiss ass and cash in on the big Latino vote. I hope that goes well for them. I do think we are flailing on the immigrant issue and should look to other countries to see how they deal with illegal immigration. Say for instance I was to move down the block from Nanuk and get a job at the local seal-skinning factory using a borrowed identity and whatever kind of number the Canadian government uses to track their residents. What would they do when Nanuk spots me truckin’ down the block and calls the Mounties, or whoever their immigration enforcement folks are? Or say I move in next to Mummified and work on the kangaroo ranch? Or Seb and get a job shining pennies for some Scotsman?

Better still, I think one of our erstwhile representatives should do a fact-finding tour in Mexico and try to set up shop in Nogales or Tijuana without throwing any money around, of course. You can get everything from the local policeman’s gun to President Fox’s mom’s ass for $25US so our rep wouldn’t get a flavor for what happens to illegal gringos if he had a Rolex or lots of cash. I think that would be the true test. What ever happens to ol’ Phos in the great frozen waste, or our boy in Nogales will be the treatment we give to our “visitors” here. That seems fair enough to me.

My son came up with a great idea that might be another avenue for those skunks, I mean politicos that want to court the Hispanic voting bloc - offer the boys a deal. Anyone of the proper age and in good health can enlist in the Army. They and their family get instant citizenship and get free English language lessons and training as soldiers. Then they ship out to Iraq taking the place of the Marines and Army there now. Then the US government distributes the returning forces along the border to stop any further incursions. Everyone wins.
