“As Rome passed away, so the West is passing away, from the same causes and in much the same way,” Mr. Buchanan writes. “What the Danube and Rhine were to Rome, the Rio Grande and Mediterranean are to America and Europe, the frontiers of a civilization no longer defended.”
…a civilization no longer defended?? …Conquest of America?? I think Pat is getting to be a little paranoid. I agree that there needs to be some immediate changes in our immagration policy. We need to know who is coming to our country and that thay are going to be in a position to support themselves once they are here. However, slamming the door shut because we don’t know the right answer will not solve the problem. As long as there are jobs and opportunities in the United States that are not available elsewhere, we are going to have people coming to the US; both legally and illegally. Hopefully after the mid-term elections, common sense will prevail and possible solutions to this problem will be offered by all sides and resolution can be implemented. The window of opportunity is small as the presidential campaign will be kicking off in early 2007. Once that starts, we can be assured of nothing to fix the problem until at least 2009.
We need to be realistic. As a husband and a father, it is my responsibility to provide for my family. If that means I have to leave the country to do that, that is what I would do. As a father, I only want the best for my children and for them to have the opportunities that I may not have had. If that means that they have to leave my side and move away, be it across the country or across the boarder, I will miss them but wish them only the best.
Why would expect anything less from another father?
