It's crazy out there!

Okay, Okay. I hear you. I get it. All my posts are about race. Well, no they aren't, but it seems that lately they have been. However, look into the eyes of little Dora, and tell her she doesn't belong. Well, of course she doesn't, she is a cartoon, but I believe the point is clear.

So, you may wonder how I came up with this idea. Sadly, it is not my own. I was watching TV one night, and they were showing an immigration rally in Irving, TX, and this caucasian gentleman (I'll be nice here) was holding a piñata of Dora the Explorer along with a sign pointing to her with the words, "Illegal Alien". How crazy is that? I don't get how people can be so inflamed that they make comments like that. We don't need TV writers, when real life is way more hysterical.

I have heard a suggestion for fixing the immigration problem that involved having gun turrets along fence, and that if they can pick a few Mexicans off, they will learn their lesson, and that will take care of that. I am not kidding, I actually overheard a debate, and that was the self-proclaimed enlightened man's idea. Well, we will never get anywhere with thoughts like that floating around.

So, unless we want Dora back in her country doing who knows what (selling gum), then we need to come together, and develop an idea or support a candidate that is fair. That concludes my last race post for a while....you can rest easy.

Ralph's got my vote!

Here today I am trying out an embedded video in my blog post, and just write some of my impressions from this episode of The Simpsons. Ralph Wiggum, one of the funniest characters in The Simpsons was written in as candidate in a recent episode. Barring from his age, would Ralph make a good candidate? Well, his answer to immigration, "Stranger Danger", is seemingly innocent, but beneath it lurks a more sinister tone. Stranger danger is what a child is supposed to yell when confronted with someone who they do not recognize.

Pure racism can wear a sneaky disguise, in the form of an 8 year old boy! Basically, strangers, or immigrants, are dangerous in his eyes. Sadly, most Americans feel the same way. I believe the best thing to do in this situation is if they are already here, let's make them citizens, have them pay taxes, and help drive more dollars into our economy and government. Now, if you have committed a crime, I believe you should be deported, but that there should be a scale to this. That's just my two cents.

Wear the Wig!

As a Republican, I am deciding between Huckabee and McCain. Maybe it is finally time for McCain to shine. Hopefully, soon I will be able to break down the likenesses and differences between the two, so I can Rock the Vote!
