Horribly unfair thoughts
There's been some decidedly odd news this week, and I being decidedly odd, have these horribly unfair thoughts about several top stories:
Another Kennedy gets into a car crash. At least this time no passengers were killed.
Monday was "A Day Without Immigrants." I think way too many people are mixing up legal and illegal immigration, the former of which I have absolutely no problem with. Personally, I think they would have done better to schedule the whole thing for today. Lots more people would be annoyed by not being able to get margaritas on Cinco de Mayo than whatever inconveniences they might have suffered on Monday.
OTOH, I can think of one group who might be highly enthusiastic of the concept of "A Day Without Immigrants:" Native Americans.
Finally, whose idea was it to offer $100 gas rebates as a "solution" to high gas prices? Someone in Congress has obviously been cribbing from Dr. Evil's playbook.
