MARK THIS DATE!
They actually agreed on something, and it was all thanks
to Mike! He's right up there with Jimmy Carter!

I'd bet she agrees spelling it 'Furarey' is wrong, as well.
....Only if Jimmy Carter foolishly thought the real problem was little
brown babies.

Re: What the fuck is it with eBay and morons who can't even bother to spellcheck? (a tiny bit OT - rant)
Sorry for the late reply. I have to use Google groups. I don't know
how this is going to post. We're switching ISPs and it's taking a few
days for the new one to get me the pertinent details while the door has
already hit the other one's ass on their way out.
Tiger, I can indeed produce numbers. The activist group for whom I
volunteer would be delighted to do so. Though I'm not chickening out
on that (if you really want to see them I'll get them, why not just
accept that I can) I'm getting tired of instigating arguments like this
only to get roasted by people who cling to some kind of view of
America-as-ambrosia/nirvana/whatever when it comes to our immigration
policies. It DOES NOT MATTER that "all our ancestors were immigrants
once, Mike". That does not apply now. LOOK AROUND YOU. Go to Santa
Ana, go to Moreno Valley, go to San Diego County, Brownsville Texas,
etc. etc. ad nauseum. If you tell me you like what you see there is
something deeply wrong with your eyes. If you tell me that welfare and
public assistance benefits are not being misdirected to people who do
not have SS cards, or who drop babies in this country so that they can
be US citizens and claim those benefits to use for the whole family, I
don't know what to say. I will repeat this, though. Hispanic (any)
immigrants who come here to be American citizens, who are willing to
learn our language - I don't care how they get here - are welcome in my
mind, welcome to anything our country makes available to those who need
it. They can keep their culture, whatever, I don't care about that if
they just make an effort to assimilate even a little bit. I would
think that would take care of your particular issue with my rants,
Tiger, but apparently it does not.
Maybe you'd like to read the article TODAY'S LA Times about the
Hispanic real estate agent (or whatever he is) who is going around LA
and Riverside counties courting Hispanic illegal immigrants to show
them how to buy homes without having to have a Social Security card.
That is disgusting, it is illegal, and I almost puked when I read it.
How anybody anybody could defend that and still think they're a proud
American citizen is just dead wrong.
At the same time, I know 1) there is, again, a personal issue here that
I have no right to keep twanging, 2) this is one of the more volatile
issues that doesn't belong in this group. It sure as hell should not
be enough for us to turn on one another - there are lots of other
things for that - so I apologize for bringing that up again, and I
promise not do it again. I noted the silence from most of you, and the
dearth of lurkers coming out to engage. I don't remember what kind of
mood I was in when I wrote it.
I have the right to my own beliefs, even if I feel that they are rock
solid and everybody else thinks they're wrong. But I do not have the
right to keep beating a dead horse under the guise of "flushing out
lurkers", when all I will do to them is get nasty.
So, once again I apologize to all. Hate me if you like, but I said
what was on my mind and I probably won't stop doing that, but hopefully
I will someday learn not to do it here when I know it's a topic that
will upset and offend.

Bullshit.
I'd like to see your version of AFDC outlays to little brown babies vs
ADFC outlays to future Jerry Springer guests.
I think it might actually open your eyes a little bit.
America is nothing more or less than what one makes of it.
Did the Constitution get rescinded while I was asleep last night?
LOFL
I do: Add another fucking layer of foil Mike.

Does it equally bother you to learn that the NY metro area is, and has
been for years, awash with illegal Irish immigrants, "illegally"
buying cars, renting apartments, paying sales taxes, etc.?
You have the right to express your "beliefs", or to regurgitate vile
and hateful polemics, but you must then accept the revulsion and scorn
they might engender in decent people.
Hopefully you will someday learn the error of your ways and reject the
exclusionary little club that feeds your need to belong with racist
bullshit.

The lack of understanding on your part is astoundiung. So quick to
call me a racist. Forget it. I'm sorry I brought it up again. Check
Numbers USA's web site for the facts I'm too lazy and too beaten down
to actually produce. I know they're there.
I fucked up. Once again, spontaneous combustion falls apart under the
onslaught of superior intelligence. But hey, at least you and Tiger
formed an alliance, however bitter.
One more time, I'm sorry I brought it up again. But this is something
I feel very passionate about, it's a real problem, and you gift me with
the tin-hat bullshit? Fuck off. Both of you.
Out.

Interesting... I'm tempted to say 'unless you're on the receiving end',
but your comment was not about foreign policy.
Good gods, no! not the Irish. There used to be one of those around
here, but I guess he's too busy to talk to people like us any more
(Joe bait)
One of the saddest things about humanity (calm down Mike, I'm making
a general statement) is that even the poorest, most victimised and
alienated of people seem only too happy to pick out another poor,
victimised and alienated group of people to whom they direct very same
hatred that they have endured.
Oh well.
I still love Big Mikey. I've seen the man give the last few cents in his
pocket to a beggar.
