| So, what you're saying is, you really could care less that native born
| Americans lose money in the effort, so long as you get your way in this
| debate.
Why would a "native born" American lose money unless he was shut down for
hiring illegal aliens? If that is the case then he should be made an example
of what will happen.

| Sigh. The record in that case was really quite clear. She had tried to get
| the numbnutz back onto the straight and narrow for quite some time. The
| local cops KNEW that. They KNEW she had nothing to do with his nefarious
| dealings. They KNEW they were simply taking a lady's car because the RICCO
| statutes (never meant for that kind of enforcement in the first place)
| allowed them to. And, they KNEW what kind of hardship it would work on a
| lady who just happened to love a nefarious bastard.
|
| And, they didn't care. Further, apparently neither do you.
Correct. She should have moved out and left the drug dealer behind.

| I seriously doubt even you believe that line. Not with native-born
American
| business owners exporting American jobs as fast as they can. Look, one of

"stealing"

| locked tractor trailer to get here.

| You don't know what's in that bill any more than much of anybody else, yet

|
| That's some logic, right there. I don't care who you are.
According to todays The City Paper (page 8) there were over 900 porkbarrels
that had been tacked on.

Not the original ones but the ancestors are.
