TUESDAY WAS GOOD NEWS FOR .... WHO?
I notice that the newspaper and broadcast pundits are telling us who the winners and losers are in Tuesday's startling elections. Well ... I might as well get in the game here with everyone else.
The envelope please.
And the winners in this year's midterm elections are:
Islamic Fascists
(Accepting the award for the Islamic Fascists will be Osama bin Laden)
The focal point of the war against Islamic fascism was Iraq. The jihadists were sending their fighters to Iraq, there to be killed in gratifying numbers by American and coalition troops. What was once American resolve is now American weakness. The people have listened to the politicians -- one group that wanted to finish the job, another that didn't -- and gave the nod to the quitters. Today America is weaker in the eyes of those who would destroy us. Not a cause for celebration.
Slackards
(Accepting the award will be Shirley Sternfaulter, a young mother of three who wants the government to pay for her child care.)
A huge percentage of the people who went to the polls on Tuesday went there to vote for a living. They feel that the purpose of government is to make sure that the basic necessities of their lives are paid for, while they spend their own money on the newest technology in flat-screen televisions, gadget-filled cell phones and subscriptions to People Magazine.
Illegal Aliens
(Putting down his leaf blower to accept the award is Pedro Lopez-Garcia-Menendez-Gonzalez, who pays no taxes in the U.S., and sends 80% of each paycheck back to Vera Cruz to take care of his wife and children.)
Yesterday President Bush as much as said that amnesty would be the order of the day. Now that those pesky Republicans have been kicked out of the majority in the House of Representatives, the president and the Senate will have clear sailing on their plan for amnesty for the 20 million plus illegal aliens now residing in this country. Oh .. and the border? Nothing will be done to stop the Mexican invasion, so as soon as Pedro has his paperwork Maria and the kids will be on a bus.
Those who want a weaker America
(Accepting the award will be Dominique Marie François René Galouzeau de Villepin, sometimes known as Dominique de Villepin, the Prime Minister of France. Dominique was the leader of the Axis of Weasels before he became Prime Minister.)
A poll earlier this year said that something like 58% of Europeans wanted a weaker America. They got their wish on Tuesday. Who is going to be there to pull their candied asses out of the oven when they finally wake up and realize the great strides that have been made in the Islamification of Europe? Hello Eurabia.
The first blow to be struck in the weakening of America will be for the Democrats to get rid of John Bolton as the Ambassador to the United Nations. They'll replace him with someone who will not stand up to UN corruption and the forces who want to weaken us.
The Libertarian Party?
(I would be happy to accept this reward, but the don't like me all that much because I believe that we need to defend this country from both the Islamic fascists and the Mexican invasion.)
Tuesday's vote showed that a lot of conservatives and libertarians in this country are completely fed up with the Republican Party. If ever there was a time for the emergence of a third party that would adhere to conservative and libertarian values -- without an obsessive allegiance to religious fundamentalists -- now is the time. The Libertarian Party could be just that party. We'll see if they're up to the task.
The leftist media.
(Accepting the award for The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, The Boston Globe, Time Magazine, Newsweek Magazine and too many more to mention will be Dan Rather)
Ninety percent or more of these people vote Democrat. They engaged in a six-year campaign of demonization of George Bush. It worked.
Washington Lawyers
(Accepting the Award will be the President of the D.C. Bar Associaton)
Get ready for two years of investigations, subpoenas, hearings...you name it. Everything will be investigated, then investigated again. But the Republicans did it to themselves...every last bit of it.

I disagree with most of the Boortz artical.
Islamic Fascists: Most of them as decribed by Boortz followed us to Iraq because we didn't finish the mission in Afganistan before going to Iraq. A lack of troops contributed to this problem.We failed to drain the swamp.
Slackards: The exit polls indicated people were concerned about corruption and the lack of progress in Iraq.
Illegal Aliens: the alternative to amnsty is the deportation of 7-10 million illegals. Good luck with that approach.
Those who want a weaker America: John Bolton needs to go. We need fresh meat at the U.N. because we haven't been able to persuade China or Russia to fully back any U.N. resolutions in dealing with Iran, our next hurdle.
The leftist media: Reporting on the shortfalls of the Republicans who are in power doesn't make them leftist,IMO. Fox News, that didn't make the list, isn't exactly fair and balanced. There wasn't much in the way of accomplishments to report on.

Tumbleweed, nice try with the "deportation" line. You and your pal Bush can try that strawman argument all you want, but nobody has seriously called for that. Instead, most sensible people are simply calling for the enforcement of laws. That will solve most of the problem, believe it or not. It is also a much better solution than asking for more laws which increase governments role in our lives.

Bush isn't my pal.
Existing laws won't stop them because nobody will enforce them.
Sensible people aren't wishful thinkers.

Boortz had a good idea I thought, he said we should have them sign up for a temporary work pass, but make it to where they had to sign up for it in Mexico. Everyone who goes back to mexico gets their pass and other appropriate papers. We crack down on any businesses who hire immigrants without proper paperwork. Oh yeah and there is a company who finds jobs for all the mexicans. The employer pays the company and the company pays the workers, after a tax has been deducted. Any who are found who do not have the appropriate papers will be deported and not allowed to sign up for the program. It doesn't matter, they'll never do it, they will be given amnesty, our government has sold us out once again.
