While fortifying our defensive perimeter here on the homestead, we caught sight of more national news. It would appear that various political numbskulls think we need to fast track citizenship to the masses of illegal aliens now who now squat in our country.

We here on the Alaskan homestead are not opposed to immigrants in any way, in fact our lovely Mrs Sourdough came here LEGALLY some 25 years ago and earned her citizenship, served in the US military for 13 years and has earned a PHd. The difference being the words LEGAL and American.

In the most recent case, we are faced with hundreds of thousands of individuals who violated our laws and our borders. They have drained our tax base while avoiding responsibility for carrying their fair share of the load. They also hold themselves in contempt for our way of life, preferring to maintain the culture of the country from which they fled.

We are indeed a nation built by immigrants. However, those old world immigrants came here to be Americans, not to continue life as a colonial outpost representing some third world nation. They may have come from Poland, Germany, Ireland, China or Italy, but their kids all spoke US English, they built new towns and cities across the west and they all rallied around Old Glory when it came time to put things right in the countries of their birth.

This current situation circling the toilet bowl of congress is a slap in the face to all those legal immigrants still waiting to EARN their citizenship. What we have here are two groups wanting to buy a house. The first group finds a job, builds up credit and applies to the bank. The second group, lies, steals and breaks into the house. The flaming idiots in our congress think that the second group should get the green light to not only stay there, but give them the title free and clear as well.!!!

As we grunts used to say in nasty situations involving confusing orders, Whiskey- Tango-Foxtrot???
