TALLAHASSEE -- A state legislator whose district is home to thousands of Caribbean immigrants wants to ban the term "illegal alien" from the state's official documents.Let's just cut to the chase and start calling illegal aliens "jefe" (boss)."I personally find the word 'alien' offensive when applied to individuals, especially to children," said Sen. Frederica Wilson, D-Miami. "An alien to me is someone from out of space."
She has introduced a bill providing that: "A state agency or official may not use the term 'illegal alien' in an official document of the state." There would be no penalty for using the words.
In Miami-Dade County, Wilson said, "we don't say 'alien,' we say 'immigrant.'"

Even my 12 year old cousin even understands that. Guess it goes to show you the mental faculties of people like this lady.

Let's just call them criminals and treat them as such.
While we're at it let's call the politicians that allow them to break our laws criminals too and give them the same treatment.

Just another symptom of not keeping it real.
One could blame carter though, he fucked up just about everything else...
Okay.... what about a Chenney / Gingrich ticket in 08? Any takers? Do I have to do everything for you kiddies? obama/edwards, hillary/sharpton come on.... use your imaginations a little. I called hillary back in 98! Too easy.

Cause I don't think Cheney could get a lot of support, besides, he might take ol' Newt hunting.

08 will be the year of the unreal for sure. What if G'WB' ran as his running mate? Stranger stuff has happened. I don't know too much about McCain, I have such a short attention span I can't keep track. If we are eye deep in the shit,( Iran and chavez) there might be more support for a real leader than a used car salesman than you think. Goooood question..... good question. Now who stuck their fingers in Aunt B's pie?
