Lets talk politics
clintonFred thompson announced his candidacy on the "Tonight Show with Jay Leno". It's about time. I was tired of the "will he or won't he" talk. He is the most electable conservative out there.
On the other side of the fence, John Edwards seems the most likely winner in the 08 Presidential election, if he can just get the nomination. Its looks like Hillary Clinton has that wrapped up already. I just don't understand what all the fuss is about with this movie about 9/11 that Disney won't release on DVD. They told the writer that if Clinton wasn't running it would be released. I haven't seen the movie, so if anyone out there could tell me what the problem is, I would appreciate it.
I personally would not vote for Hillary Clinton. The reason is simple. Right after 9/11, President Bush gave a speech to Congress, and at one point they showed Senator Clinton. And what did she do? Showed a total lack of respect to the President, the people who died, and to the American Public. How did she do it, you ask? She was shown, rolling her eyes almost in digust at what was being said. That did it for me. In my opinion it showed her true colors.
Lets talk about another subject. Hate Crimes. There were 6 or so African American People who beat a caucasian man up pretty badly. Now the prosecutors are reducing the charges.
Now before we go any farther, I have to say that I don't agree with te hate crime laws. In my opinion, any crime is a hate crime. Having said that, as long as the hate crime laws are on the books, this should be treated as one.
If this had been 6 caucasian guys beating up an african american, you can bet that the prosecutor would not be reducing the charges. They would be looking at life. I don't care if you are white, black, green, yellow, or red, if several of one color jump on another color, then under the current laws, It Is A Hate Crime.
Now lets talk immigration. I am learning Spanish in college right now. I believe that in the field I am going into it will be useful. Having said that, I believe that an unsecure border not only leads to National Security, but also Economic Security issues. We need to shut down our border. Then we need to make the fines more for employers that hire undocumented workers. Also renters that rent to undocumented workers should face hefty fines. And when I say hefty, I don't mean $500-$1000. I mean $100,000-$5,000,000 per offense. That way, if someone is undocumented, then they would have to get documented. That is when we offer them a one year work visa that is reviewed every year. If at the end of the year person is gainfully employed, we extend it for another year. If they are not, then they are sent home. Where ever that may be. Also if they don't renew, a warrant is issued for their arrest and they are sent home and never allowed to return.
Well, I guess that is about it for now. I will try to post a little more often. I didn't realize how much time school would take. Bye for now.
