I have written this in respone to Geo. Will's article entitled, Making education work that is posted here on TH at http://townhall.com/columnists/GeorgeWill/2008/09/14/making_education_work
I would like all american citizens kids to have a shot at the education we are giving to these kids. And a very valid question is, are they here legally or are they illegal aliens? If illegal, then ICE needs to deport them because it is the right of the American citenzry to have our laws enforced --all of them. Sorry, but that's the way it is. This isn't a "law buffet" where we pick what we want to enforce and ignore those we don't.
I want American kids to get what is being offered to these kids. I am interested in the needs of all American Citizens kids being met first. I am NOT interested in our kids being last on the list but, first. That's the way it is. American Citizens come first!!! Period.
I am sorry but, we cannot save the world and I am concerned about saving the U.S. first!!!
The american people spend hundreds of millions of dollars every year on illegal aliens in the form of welfare, free education, free healthcare, HEAP, WIC, food stamps etc. I want those hundreds of millions of dollars to go to American Citizens. Just think what schools like this one, dedicated to the poor kids in our cities could do with those hundreds of millions of dollars! We have a dropout rate in our schools of about 50% and we are spending hundreds of millions of dollars on people who don't belong here. Does that make sense to you? C'mon, think about it. What are we doing?
Obama says, "enough" of the dog and pony show his fellow buddies are parading and yet he tells us, "our kids need to learn Spanish", instead of Latino people learning English and John McCain's position on illegal aliens is no better. Both of them are selling the American people down the proverbial river when it comes to immigration laws. Well, I say, "enough" of our politicians "sticking it" to us. WAKE UP AMERICA before you are on the outside looking in. Take back America for the people who have the "LEGAL" right to be here. And the rest need to get in line behind all the "law abiding" people all over the world.
Sorry, but it's called "life", and sometimes we need to make tough choices and I choose American citizens kids first!
Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.
