Five Mexican generals

To stop illegals coming across our border and save a lot of money at the same time:

Divide the border into 5 districts. Create 5 escrow bank accounts of $2mil each. Offer each of these to a Mexican general with one condition. For each illegal we catch on our side we subtract $10k from the relevant district account. The Generals can get the balance in the accounts after 2 years, Then we do it again.
(Heard some Texas radio personality say this.)

Weird Eye-Brain Action

Don't delete the following paragraph just because it looks weird. Believe it or not, you can read it.

Bush as Hitler?

In the January 29 H-T we were subjected to yet another hysterical rant against our president and, by extension, our country. Kevin Haggerty’s column is so venomous and so beyond reason it is absurd. He tells us President Bush is in the same league as Hitler, Stalin and Pol Pot. Where does the H-T find these screeching and preaching left wingers? Why give him a column to spew such hate filled rhetoric? In Iraq we are trying to create a free and democratic society. Do we get credit for these intentions? No…we are told our president is a Hitler. Mr. Haggerty is the type of writer the H-T seems to attract that can find nothing good about our country. Now is a time when anti-American propaganda is common in the world, put out by our enemies and even some of our so-called friends. Too many people are ready and anxious to believe anything bad about the USA. The Iranian parliament ends its sessions by chanting “death to America”. Chavez, the Castro-wannabe in Venezuela, says America is a terrorist state and the most evil country in the world. Is this where Mr. Haggerty gets his ideas?
