Using Our Children To Push Agenda

Today, I heard that a high school in Illinois is not letting its girl’s basketball team participate in a basketball tournament in Arizona. What would cause them to make a decision like this?

Simply and logically put, POLITICS!

These girls our being used to spread a few people’s opinions about the illegal immigration law that Arizona just signed. Basketball has absolutely nothing to do with the illegal immigrant issue. And the administration at the school wants to defend their decision by stating that they are afraid of what might happen.

This is ludicrous!

This has nothing to do with the safety of the girls or for the school. It has to do with the agenda of some of the administration and how they feel about the immigration law. They want to boycott Arizona, plain and simple. I say, fine. You stay out of Arizona, administration. I am sure Arizona would be happy to know that you were nowhere near its borders.

As for these girls, they need to find a way to get to the tournament that they have worked so hard for.

Let’s Listen To Our Own Citizens

I don’t know about you, but common sense tells me that our government, who by the way works for us, should be listening to its citizens and not to the President of Mexico about our borders.

Why would we give this man the time of day and yet we shun anyone who wants to secure our borders, calling them racists? None of this makes sense and it infuriates me.

Mexico is riddled with crime. It’s out of control. It isn’t exactly a beacon of hope in the world. And yet the President of Mexico is allowed to speak before our congress and spout off his advice to us. And he gets applause from the democrats for berating our state of Arizona. We should be standing up for Arizona, not allowing an outsider to come in and belittle its stand on upholding the law of the land.

Something stinks here. And I am tired of it. I am fed up with the arrogance on Capitol Hill and the White House. They weren’t elected to bully us around or to play the games that they are playing. They are making a mockery out of our great country and they need to be stopped. The citizens of the United States deserve better. Our leaders are elected to serve us and to protect us.

Are you protecting us when you allow President Calderon to come into our country and berate us? No.

This is our land, our laws, our people. You come here, you come legally. If you want to live here you have to abide by the laws or you pay the consequences. I don’t care if you are Irish, Middle Eastern, Asian, Mexican, German, Russian, etc. The laws of the United States are the laws. They don’t apply to some and not the others. So if you can’t live here legally, then get out. Just keeping it simple.

Listen to your citizens Washington D.C. because we aren’t the “dummies” you thought we were.
