Laughing At Meg Whitman

Oh my goodness!

One night Meg Whitman is blasting Jerry Brown with a bunch of misrepresentations and lies.

And the very next day, her former housekeeper reveals that she's an undoc -- and claims that Meg knew about it.

Now, just as an aside, don't vote for someone who failed to vote for dang near 30 years. She didn't have time to be bothered to exercise her civic duty, but now she wants to be the governor.

The woman is too ignorant to govern her own house, let alone a state.

Well, maybe a state of denial, or a state of mind, or maybe even a state of shock. But Meg is not capable of handling California's state of emergency.

Seriously.

She's against illegal immigration, rants about taking responsibility for actions, but then fires her long-time housekeeper for being an illegal and fails to mention it to anyone.

Her poor PR team. I'd almost feel sorry for them, but then again, they chose to work for her.

What was that about sowing and reaping? You know, in the Good Book? Yeah, that one. That's what Meg is doing now. Reaping what she sowed.

Huh.

Can we just roll on the floor laughing like we did this morning when the story broke???

So When Is A Citizen Not A Citizen?

These idiots want to change the 14th Amendment so that children of undocs aren't citizens.

There's a few problems with this idea, which this bunch of freaking clowns never consider:

1. It's a slippery slope. First we strip citizenship of children/people born here in the United States because their parents aren't legal.
2. Next, we decide that even with one legal parent, they can't be citizens.
3. Then children born of citizens of persuasions that we don't like -- race, ethnicity, religion -- like Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Mexicans, Arab-Americans, or African-Americans all become non-citizens.
4. Then we strip citizenship from everyone else. If you aren't a member of the current regime's party, then you can't be a citizen.

Then, oh dear Lord, what then? We have created second and third class citizens who are not citizens, who have no rights in the very country that they and their ancestors were born in. So we formulate a whole new class system based on this travesty of "American, Land of the Free."

What then? Untouchables? Ghettos in the classic sense of the word? Even a return to slavery??? A Holocaust?

Think it can't happen? Better take a look at Germany in the 1930s and 40s...

Oh yeah, the blatherers will say that it could never happen here.

They're deluded. Once you start down the slippery slope, it becomes easier and easier to be a hater, to discriminate, to steal the birthright of citizens.

Of course, being mostly Welsh and Native American, I have some pretty strong opinions about citizenship rights, since my ancestors had their country taken from them AND were not citizens until well into the 20th century. And we are STILL battling the Feds for legal recognition of tribes, even though we have always been here...

Don't think it couldn't happen here. It already has. Just ask my great grandparents.
