How does expecting everyone to play fairly and honestly make me less likely to be one who does the same? I beleive I described myself as a working man who does the right thing. I dont think objecting to an invasion by foreign nationals makes me a xenophobe,I think it is just common sense survival, sans the rose tinted shades. The blame lays appropriately at the feet of the leaders a majority of you voted for. Though I always vote, I did not choose most of those in office . I beleive that gives me license to blame and criticize. Our family is made of many wonderful shades and count all ethnicities among our friends and church family. That doesn't mean we should let everyone onto the good ship America until the whole thing goes down.America still has a divine exceptional place in the world, and if we are smart and remain a strong nation, will continue to be able to affect positive change. We owe it to ourselves and our children to protect our future and choose wisely the society we are building, and that involves the ability to discriminate among potential Americans to decide which would be the best contributors with the most integrity, talent, and ability that we wish to add to the reproductive pool that will determine our society and its leaders, just a few generations down the road.
