Why I still love Hillary Rodham Clinton
Okay, many in politics, especially on the Wrong Side, don't tend to like Hillary Clinton. They say it's because she is the one who wears the pants and only married Bill Clinton to further her own agenda. Oh please. Yes, there are people out there who see a person with money and will do anything to capture that person to further their own lifestyle, but with Hillary, Bill wasn't rich. He was smart, intelligent, handsome, interesting and was also a lawyer (as was she), so it only makes sense that she would be attracted to him. Which leads me back to her, though she may not be the most gorgeous woman in the room, she sure as hell is smart, intelligent, a lawyer, and interesting! She recently said about the republican's new Immigration Bill that this bill, should it become law, would actually criminalize and jail Jesus for 5 years for giving aid, comfort, and a piece of bread to an immigrant. She's right on! This bill is anti-American as far as I'm concerned. Almost all of us are descendents of immigrants somewhere along the line, so who are we to now say that we can't allow new immigrants in? I think we should let them all in, because by doing so would take away the "criminal effect". The republicans and other Americans like to boil down all Mexicans as criminals and "those who are eating up money intended for Americans". Now come on. The whites of this country are as criminal as Mexicans and use up the same resources available to them as well. I hate pointing fingers at anyone but I have to say....pointing fingers at the republican's Immigration Bill is needed. They're appearing on the surface to be very racial and it needs to stop. America is not a 'lock box society'. We are free. We shouldn't be building walls along our borders. What we need to be doing is being the Good Samaritans of the Earth by being kind to our neighbors. On the tablet of the Statue of Liberty it states:
"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"If these Americans could put themselves in the shoes of others, we could end up with a pretty damn good country. Agree?
