Taegan Goddard at Political Wire touts new poll showing “broad support” for immigration reform

Which is rather shocking until you more closely examine the questions. For instance:

1) Do you support those on an uphill battle to escape tyranny and who yearn to live free? 2) Or are you some sort of fucking racist, nativist douchebag who only wants to see Mexicans when they’re cleaning your hotel room, fixing your roof, or serving you complementary tortilla chips at Chi-Chi’s?

3) Jennifer Lopez has a nice bumper, don’t you think? 4) Or are you into that flat, boyish WASP-ass that, every time you lay down naked with it, makes you frankly almost gay.

Okay. So maybe these exact questions don’t appear in the poll. But their spirit is everywhere in the wording. Besides: people like to take the PC line in polls.

Then they go home and wish evil on Ricky Martin, and whisper confidentially that Carlos Santana was never really all that.

These are facts. Deal with them.

    Is an alligator filled moat and mass deportation considered immigration reform, or is it just amnesty?

    Oh. I should have figured as much.

    Wonk Wire: Why more border security won’t work.

  3. More border security won’t work because it might so impede the flow of illegal immigrants as to give them the idea we don’t want them here, and might actually, like, TRY to stop them from coming.

    See, it all depends on how you define “work.”

  4. My answers to your poll questions:

    1) No. Stay in your own damn country and lead a rebellion, you wusses.

    2) Yes. But I would also add to that list: ‘…or if they look like this.

    3) Not bad, not bad. I’m not a big bumper kind of guy – wrong side.

    4) I refer you to the link at #2 above and practically every other Rule 5 Saturday I’ve ever done.

    Now…
    1-Please put my name on your ‘No Call’ List; and

    2-Carlos ain’t even in the Top Twenty of the Greatest Guitar Players.

    Frank Zappa once wrote “The Carlos Santana Secret Chord Progression”, but nobody really got the point. And Frank wasn’t known for his subtlety.

    mojo,

    I was thinking the same thing :)

    Yeah, it wasn’t exactly subtle

    Santana just gives me a headache.

    Just let them all in and be part of the rich tapestry that is America. I am tired of taking all the blame for global warming on my own.

    I find nothing wrong with Santana, but I don’t love the guy either. He is what he is.
