No Respect for the Taxpayer

It's almost impossible to believe: That the White House demanded that a a provision requiring illegals to pay back taxes be removed from the immigration legislation.

So help us understand. It's perfectly okay for illegals to have reduced tuition at in-state universities, to enjoy education, health care and all the rest during their tenure as illegal aliens -- but once they're given citizenship, they owe the United States nothing?

What a bad mistake -- not only in terms of equity, but also politically, for The White House.

This absurd legislation must be a smoke screen, simply to distract all of us from the failure of Iraq and the war funding fiasco. The government typically drops a bomb, figuratively and literally speaking, right before national holidays.

Perhaps all Americans should become Mexicans and then sneak back across the border to "legally" avoid taxation.

Such as bombing aspirin factories? Maybe Pres. Bush simply learned at the feet of the masters. The Clintons' co-presidency perfected this tactic amid its constant legal troubles.
