Resignment

Democrats say their actions are perfectly fine.
Scandal after scandal and they refuse to resign.
Their public acceptance becomes leaner and leaner,
With scoundrels like Clinton, Rangel and Weiner.
Worldly embarassment! Now here's my thought du jour,
Send Obama on another apology tour. ---- Grandpa Gordon

Borderline

The three most serious threats to our nation are the deficit, terrorism and illegal immigration. All, in a way, related. Illegal immigration drains billions of our taxpayer dollars annually adding to the deficit. Our uncontrolled southern border is a pathway for terrorists. In a recent year, 1798 illegals were apprehended that came from countries that sponsor terrorists. And, that was only a small portion of the illegal border crossers. Why, after many years has our government not strengthend and closed down the border? It is an almost open pathway for drugs, gangs, terrorists and others to illegally enter. The answer to that is simple. Too many of our elected officials pander for the Latino votes. To them, party power and re-election are more important than the United States Constitution. Both parties are guilty, but the democrat liberals are, by far, the biggest perpetraters. These legislators who vote against efforts to control the borders and for amnesty are not upholding their oath of  office to follow constitutional law and protect the American people. In any sense of the word they are traitors.
I have a simple and quick solution to this very serious problem. Have the Department of Justice arrest one or two of these traitorous legislators. Try them and convict them and give them some good old military justice. The seven man firing squad! With our huge deficits, it seems that twelve live bullets and two dum dums would be a frugal way to go. And, it would most likely, bring all the other legislators back to following the Constitution and protecting the American way of life. By the way, if we had term limits, none of this would have been an issue. ------Grandpa Gordon
