Bring back banishment!-Banish the Lazy and Criminals.

OK. All the ranting about illegal immigrants has gotten me thinking. Who really deserves to be here?

The arguement is that illegals take more out of our social system then they put in. Therefore they must go.

Well, I am all sure that we know a few people who are native born citizens who can't seem to, or want to hold a job. Or maybe just outright criminals. In anycase, they are taking way more out of the system then they are putting in.

Do they deserve to be called Americans just because of birthright? I say NO!!. Let's bring back banishment. Where to you might say? Well Iraq and Afghanistan can use some help that's for sure.

What say you?

As the plains Indian Chief said: "Be very careful with immigration. We weren't."

They seemed to find a way to vote in the last WA St. Governers race...and you damn well know how that turned out.

Nine days after making the names of more than 47,000 potential felon voters public, state officials have scrapped the entire list, saying it was too flawed to be trusted.

County supervisors of elections were told Saturday not to use the list of people the state believed had committed felonies and illegally registered to vote.


**snip**

Democrats and voting rights advocates at once claimed victory and commended the state for dumping the list.

"This is clearly a victory for the Democratic Party," Florida Democratic Party Chairman Scott Maddox, "but it is more so a victory for democracy. Democrats, Republicans and independents alike will benefit from the ability to exercise their constitutional right to vote instead of being erroneously purged by this administration."
