A Banana Republic at Last

John Burtis' frustration with the Senate over immigration echoes my own:

With the granting of social security benefits for illegal aliens, while fully recognizing the past criminal activities committed by these scurrilous mendicants, by the United States Senate, America has become a banana republic at long last, completing an up and down 200 year spiral into oblivion with a sudden burst at the finish - a final immigration fahrtlich.

Our laws are for sale; they can be overlooked on vast scales for some sort of political expediency, and then finally erased in an instant for a huge criminal cross-section, while the legal citizens, the taxpayers, who must in the end pay for this dreadful damage, must still adhere to the very laws which have been ground into the dust for the sake of a 2,000 mile bitter border joke.

All our cries for immigration reform has fallen on deaf ears, as our government prepares to make it easier for illegals to thumb their noses at America's sovereignty.
