almost/kinda.  *sigh* story of my life.  I'm home in Cali now, but flying out to take my exit test soon.  Thoughts all over the place.
 

A nice little break from the political skewering. Just savory all around.

For making my LEGAL and LEGITIMATE immigration to the U.S. and NATURALIZATION as a U.S. CITIZEN a BIG, FAT, STINKING BALL OF CRAP.  Wow. I am so disappointed in Capitol Hill.  Talk about political whores and panderers who do not have a CLUE.  But hey, I guess 12-20 million votes (even thought they're ILLEGAL) is too good a deal to pass up. 

But hey, all you people who waited your turn and paid your dues and worked just as hard if not harder because you actually cared enough to obey the LAW, what SUCKERS you are. Shoulda just hopped over the border and paid a cool 5k and it would have been easy breezing.

“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who
comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to
us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it
is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace,
or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every
facet an American, and nothing but an American… There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else
also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the
American flag..We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”

Theodore Roosevelt,1907.
(Harsher than I would have put it, but his heart was in the right place.)
