P*ssing in the wind [View All]

About a month ago I sent an e-mail to both my senators -- Bond and Talent -- about my views on immigration. Unfortunately, I've already deleted my original e-mail, but the gist of it was this: reinforce the laws that are already on the books, and start going after the employers of illegal aliens. I never hear back from Bond (of course, he has yet to reply to any of my letters) but Talent sent me this reply today:

Dear

Thank you for contacting my office to share your views on
immigration reform. I agree with you that the priority of any
legislation should be border control and that an amnesty would just
encourage more unlawful immigration. Attached please find a
copy of my speech from the Senate floor expressing my thoughts
in a detailed fashion on the subject.

Again, I thank you for being in touch. If you have any
further concerns with this or any other issue, please do not hesitate
to call or write.

If you would like to contact me via e-mail, please visit

Sincerely,

Senator Jim Talent

(Emphasis is mine.) All I can say is, maybe Talent ought to spend a little more time reviewing the English language so he can hone his reading comprehension skills. It reminds me of that old Farside cartoon where the dog is listening to his master and all he hears is "blah, blah, blah."
:wtf:
