I heard a term today while the Pres was visiting New Mexico….Illegal Immigrant reform..Would someone tell me just what that means…I mean really…Does it mean what they did is ok?….Or, If one can get through the heavily guarded area, then it is ok for them to be an American?…Or, if they can get through, get a job, then it becomes ok for them to be an American…I wonder what all the folks who had to come through Ellis Island thinks about our southern border entry system?….Maybe Mr. Ruben Navarette, Jr. can enlighten us…I am not sure he is a regular reader of this blog, but maybe he can tell us what that term means, if not here, then in one of his stories in the Albuquerque Journal….Amnesty is not illegal immigrant reform, is it? Surely not, that’s another ball game entirely, huh?….
“Illegal immigrant reform” looks like an oxymoron to me. If a person from another country comes into a country to live permanently, this person is a boni fide immigrant. If that person disobeys the laws of his new country, that person is illegal. If that person makes restitution of everything that the law requires, then that person becomes legal. Attaching the word “reform” to it makes the entire expression an oxymoron. It becomes a meaningless expression from the lips of a meaningless president floating in a sea of meaningless jargon.
Perhaps Mr. Navarette, Jr. can pull a better explanation from his bag of meaningless jargon; but, as a boni fide American from the great state of Alabama and married to a “legal” immigrant from that beautiful country in southern Pacific called the Philippines, this is the best explanation that I can dream up.
