Random Thought
Today, as always, politics consist of conflict. A political force can hardly hope to exist without a significant opposition. If no one opposes you, your opinion isn't even worth having. If you don't make someone angry, it is impossible that you should inspire someone else.

Thanks for stopping by. Your Random Thought reminds me of something my old friend George Sherman (May He Rest In Peace) might have said. George was an author/ news paper reporter/columnist. At one time he was a Human Resource Manager for a fortune 500 company. He was also a ladies basket ball coach and even played against the old Harlem Globetrotters himself. When talking about some of his columns I often heard him say that if he didn't upset at least one person a day he wasn't doing his job. I'd like to hear what you think about the problems we are having with our broken immigration policy and wide open borders. It will be good to hear from someone outside the United States. Whats the rest of the world saying about the mess we're in.
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.

Hi David,
Thanks for the comment. I have had that same feeling as your friend George (May He Rest In Peace). Have a look at my piece Confessions of an Illegal Alien I wrote a while back. I think my thoughts are outlined pretty well. What the rest of the world thinks is basically "no comment". Europe has millions of displaced people from the world wars and the Gypsies in particular are a huge problem since a majority of them draw government support and steal things on their free time. I know that must sound horrible if you have never lived in a country with a large gypsie population, but suffice to say, I have developed a prejudice. Maybe 10% of Gypsies here are respectable citizens and they are recognizable by the way they dress and behave. The others are to be avoided. They are taught at an early age that stealing from a non-gypsy is commendable. This fact is well documented. At least in the states, most of the immigrants are willing to work.

I wish the consultants running the Democratic Party felt the way you do, Praguetwin.
It seems the Democratic startegy the past few years has been to alienate as few people as possible while taking as many innocuous positions as possible.
And we've seen what that strategy gets you over and over - minority party status!
