I sometimes feel like I am watching a rerun of the "Bridge of the River Kwai." Have we forgotten who the enemy is? The enemy is not us. The problem with this bill and the necessity for reform has gotten us to a point where we have forgotten exactly what the argument is. We really have gone hell bent for four years just looking for immigration reform. forgetting about the cost to Americans. I am going to tell you. it is not going to be the blacks or the quarterbacks of the Pittsburgh Steelers who are going to be asked for an ID. but I will be damnedexcuse me. I will take that back.
