Thanks for the offer Tracy, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn we already have some of them. We have huge piles of deportation orders that nobody ever seems to get around to executing. Of course, it doesn't really matter much since on the rare occasions when they do execute one of the orders, it's usually one that most of the population wishes they'd burn. Whenever they find an illegal actually contributing to the well being of the country, they rush to execute the order. On those other occasions when they get around to executing one of the orders on a truly undesirable person, it really doesn't matter since they seem rarely to be able to find the him/her anyway.

On the other hand we do fast track the immigration of strippers. Apparently the government discovered we don't have enough home-grown exotic dancers, and by gad, they acted decisively to solve that problem! That'll teach those taxi driving, burger flipping MD's and Engineers. Instead of wasting all those years learning a profession, they could have been going to a school for strippers (the fools).

Bush did not come across, to say the least, as an intellectual, but he seemed far more natural and down-home. Seventy years ago, those things might not have had much of an impact because newspapers and radio simply didn't create the same sort of imagery as does TV. The person who comes across better on the box is likely to win an election. And certainly this is not merely a U.S. phenomenon.
