Illegals: Two stupidities don't make for a correct response

Maybe it's me, but I have a problem understanding not only Washington, but also the American people.

Let me first address Washington, or specifically, the administration of Obama. Why can't they understand that our border states need help in stopping illegal border crossings. Why is this so complicated for them?

As to my fellow citizens, why can't they realize that shipping back 10 or 12 millions people is unworkable. What do they intend to use? Boxcars? They say it's the illegal's fault. They say their own relatives had to wait on line. Why couldn't the illegals have done the same thing?

And, these Americans are right. But, it doesn't matter. It's true that providing amnesty to Mexicans who have sneaked over our borders is unfair. It is. But, sometimes life just isn't fair. But, if we had a well guarded and fenced off border, we could now put an end to the unfairness. Criminals and the bad individuals could still be tossed back over the border. But frankly I think most Mexicans are darn fine people. Okay, many did sneak across. But, that was then. Let's focus on now.

I might add that the Mexican president's remarks when he was invited to the White House were in my opinion quite inappropriate. Everyone knows that Mexico has far stronger laws against illegal immigrantion than Arizona. But, I can't blame the Mexican president for his remarks decrying Arizona's laws. If our president acts and speaks such incomprehensible nonsense, why should the Mexican president speak any more intelligently when he addresses the American public.
