Response to Follow?

Following is the text of an email sent to Hillary Clinton via the "Contact Us" link on her presidential campaign web site. Do I expect anything more meaningful (or sinister) than an auto-responder generic thank-you text? Of course not. But it can't hurt to get the details out as publicly as possible.

Wouldn't it be a pleasant surprise to hear Hillary or any of the others actually respond to the question posed? On the off chance something more should come from her camp it will be posted in this space. Keep checking back!

The message that was sent:

Mrs. Clinton,

Are you a mental incompetent, which would disqualify you for the office you seek, or intent on selling out the sovereignty of the United States of America, which would also disqualify you for the office you seek?

You dare to suggest that Governor Spitzer is doing a grand and noble thing by putting driver’s licenses into the hands of illegal immigrants. You express a heartwarming concern that all these people who are illegally in this country might harm themselves or possibly even others while operating a motor vehicle, as if somehow that is the fundamental underlying issue.

What exactly is it that you and your ilk are incapable of comprehending about the word "illegal" in the term ILLEGAL alien? These people, of their own volition, are violating the laws of this country. They do not require help assimilating - which most of them do not wish; they do not need help obtaining government services paid for by legal citizens and legal resident aliens; they do not need to have the "stigma" of their illegal status washed away by citizenship or pseudo-citizenship proposals that serve only to penalize those would be immigrants who have, are, or hope to follow the legal pathways to entry and possible citizenship.

The only assistance they require is in exiting this country with all possible haste. If you or anyone else is truly concerned about breaking up families that were illegally created while they were illegally present within this country I, and no doubt many others, are more than willing to foot the bill for transporting those family members back to the illegal alien's country of origin. I am certainly not harsh enough to want to forcibly separate a child from its parent just because that parent is a criminal.

Were some hypothetical individual (I almost wrote "were I", but don't want you sicking your Secret Service goons on me in the trumped up misinterpretation that I am suggesting or even implying some sort of threat against either you or your property) to enter your home and remove your valuables, I very seriously doubt you would be so magnanimous as to suggest that this "non-owner unauthorized reallocation of wealth" perpetrator should be shown compassion or showered with government - read taxpaying United States citizen - funded largesse to rectify his personal economic deprivation. I have every confidence that you would demand that the police and criminal justice system do everything possible to rectify such a wrong perpetrated against you.

How is it you can stand before the citizens of this nation and proudly proclaim that you lack the intellectual honesty to apply the same standards to those who are breaking and entering our nation and stealing our wealth, exporting it to family members in foreign countries? Is political expediency truly a satisfying, let alone acceptable, answer?
