We are living in strange times...

The California Senate has endorsed the "May Day" immigration boycott/protest/work stoppage in California. I don't know about you, but it seems to me that these folks are always boycotting the wrong things. Then, they turn around and criticise the folks who boycott the right things.

As I said, you got to love the People's Republic of California. I love it when the government supports people not working and not going to school to march on May Day along with every other socialist and communist country.

I hope all the employers fire each and every person who skips work on May 1. Although the reality is that the majority of the people marching will be agitators, communist leftovers from the good ole days of the USSR; idiots with Che t-shirts, college students with nothing better to do since their mommies and daddies pay for their tuition and they don't work, except possible partime at Starbucks)

I wish I could have a dollar for every Che Shirt these shmucks will be wearing as well as for every sign that says "Impeach Bush." Like that will solve their problem. Man, I'd have enough money to buy out Bill Gates.

Hmmm. I seem to remember a bunch of Miami's elected officials calling for boycotts and demonstrations during the Elian saga. I guess its allright to paralyze Miami and scream bloody murder at the Feds because one kid is being sent back to Castro's Cuba, but it is wrong to make a statement against a law that might lead to millions of people's relatives getting kicked across the border.

I do not agree with the boycott, more for tactical reasons, but for millions of Latinos this strikes really close to home, as Elian did for people in Miami.
