How to Become a Failed State

 This explains a lot.

MEXICO CITY - Mexico is battling billionaire drug mafias armed with bazookas, but when President Felipe Calderon ranks the threats his country faces, he worries more about methane gas, dwindling forests and dirty refineries.

We cannot concern ourselves with Calderon or Mexico's internal affairs. We simply must rid ourselves of politicians such as Harry Reid, who in kissing his boss's ars, proclaims the necessity of the Dream Act; and immediately begin complete enforcement of this nation's [and Arizona's] immigration policies. Every illegal in this country should be contacted by our government's officials and provided with a chipped/e-verify type ID card, which would serve to track their whereabouts etc. These illegals should then be allowed a LIMITED/TERMNED stay in this country for employment,etc purposes [all the while being tracked by their ID card], and when their term limit expired, they should be exported [if still in this country]. ICE should complete a non-scalable [penetratable] fence/barrier [and anyone attempting to thwart same should be arrested/shot, and immediately deported. ICE should also process incoming immigrants, provide them with the above mentioned ID card, secure/exclude any undesirables [drug gangs, Muslim terrorists,etc], and allow the remainder into this country for their intended purposes. Again, Mexico's internal problems are of no concern to us [we have our own to deal with]!!!!!

Again, Mr. Horner, need I remind you that terrorists and drug cartel kingpins only threaten, kill and maim people and governments LOCALLY! Global warming - opps, scratch that - climate change - threatens ALL of us on a mass extinction scale! May I remind you - an all you global, er, climate change skeptics, right wing Nazis of Doom of the hockey stick graph! If you want to focus on a minority of Muslims strapping bombs to their heads and yelling leeleeleeleeleeelee Allah Akbar before going BOOM, go ahead. We sophisticated people will focus on squeezing out the 10 parts per million of CO2 that is the real danger. That's a whopping 0.00001. So go on and make fun of us, you planet hater!

We sophisticated people ...

Thanks so much.

We simpletons shall remind you that if the world has been destroyed by any of the groups you dismiss as posing so little danger, their will be fewer witnesses to the amount of pollution by those clever people such as yourself!
