Sent to me by my uncle...

Post by Nightshade »

My uncle is a Mexican citizen and he forwarded this to me to point out the irony of the situation with illegal immigrants here in the US:
Dear President Obama:

I'm planning to move my family and extended family into Mexico for my health, and I would like to ask you to assist me.

We're planning to simply walk across the border from the U.S. Into Mexico, and we'll need your help to make a few arrangements.

We plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws.

I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Calderon, that I'm on my way over?

Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:

1. Free medical care for my entire family.

2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.

3. Please print all Mexican government forms in English.

4. I want my grandkids to be taught Spanish by English-speaking (bi-lingual) teachers.

5. Tell their schools they need to include classes on American culture and history.

6. I want my grandkids to see the American flag on one of the flag poles at their school.

7. Please plan to feed my grandkids at school for both breakfast and lunch.

8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.

9. I do plan to get a car and drive in Mexico, but, I don't plan to purchase car insurance, and I probably won't make any special effort to learn local traffic laws.

10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from their president to leave me alone, please be sure that every patrol car has at least one English-speaking officer.

11. I plan to fly the U.S. Flag from my house top, put U S. Flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.

12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, or have any labor or tax laws enforced on any business I may start.

13. Please have the president tell all the Mexican people to be extremely nice and never say critical things about me or my family, or about the strain we might place on their economy.

14. I want to receive free food stamps.

15. Naturally, I'll expect free rent subsidies.

16. I'll need Income tax credits so although I don't pay Mexican Taxes, I'll receive money from the government.

17. Please arrange it so that the Mexican Gov't pays $4,500 to help me buy a new car.

18. Oh yes, I almost forgot, please enroll me free into the Mexican Social Security program so that I'll get a monthly income in retirement.

I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all his people who walk over to the U.S. From Mexico. I am sure that President Calderon won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely.

Thank you so much for your kind help. You're the man!!!
Note that the lefties will shout 'racist!' and 'xenophobe!' if they saw this anywhere else. I don't think it states anything other than realization that we are used to our collective submission to the destruction of American sovereignty and respect.

Right...so none of those points applies I suppose. Just dismiss the whole thing like a coward.

They don't apply anyway, but this just gives further reason as to why.

I won't speak to the particular points pasted or anyone's responses to them so far. But in general, it takes a disproportionately large amount of time to properly debunk points than it takes to paste them. You can't ask people to put more time into debunking your points than you put into pasting them.

Yes, because dismissing well thought out posts with a whiz bang one liner and an insult is much easier.

You seriously think that any of TB's posts are well-thought-out?

the fact you thought this was well thought out? funny. the fact you thought it was an insult? funnier. If you expected me to get into the hyperbolic nonsense that is the first post (ripped apart on snopes btw) is well.. pretty hilarious at this point.

Actually my response was to Jeff, your post just ended up in-between. Then I just didn’t give a crap about editing it.

The reverse is also true: if someone wrote a well thought out post, then a one liner is usually insufficient for debunking it.

Rather typical. If you can't calmly refute something logically and thoughtfully, mock and attack the message. Alinsky would be proud.

And if you can't actually create something resembling actual discussion when performing one of your usual drive-by dump posts, maybe you shouldn't be posting in the first place.

A ready-made pejorative for something you don't want to discuss.

Dude. You are the very definition of a ★■◆●-poster. I mean holy ★■◆●, you've managed to create yet another one of these pieces of nonsense in the short time we've been talking about this one! Do you just, like, sit there half the day trolling for crappy links, thinking, "Oh man better start a thread about this one!"

Me not want to discuss something? Have you ever posted anything of substance in any of your opening posts in here? Dropping off a random video link or news article quote, then running away giggling like a schoolgirl, does NOT constitute thoughtful discussion. If you want people to have even a smidgen of respect for you, then actually try contributing your own thoughts when you post something. Otherwise, I'll feel completely free to keep pointing and laughing at you.
