I loved your comment in the story about the Mexican government complaining about our border patrol crossing the border while chasing criminals trafficking drugs was classic - Something to the effect that at least this is the first time that the Mexican government acknowledged the sovereign border. The two border agents that are facing jail time is criminal (this story should be in the mainstream press every day instead of the other stupid stories that they bore us to tears with at every waking moment. And what is more irritating is that people like me are called racist (my words don't reveal my complexion) when we ask that our immigration laws be be enforced. Even with total 100% enforcement, our immigration policies are very liberal, but no one wants to admit that. There are literally dozen of ways to legally enter this country, unfortunately for us, their is little to make many of them leave, because the immigration laws are not enforced.

Thank you for bringing this issue to light every night. Sometimes it feels hopeless that anything will change for the better. I recently finished reading your book, "War on the Middle Class." And the title says it all. By the way, the other books I am currently reading are "State of Emergency" by Pat Buchanan; "Take this Job and Ship It, by Senator Byron L. Dorgan and The Diposable American by Louis Uchitelle - Notice a theme.

While Ross Perot might have been a crazy little man, I voted for him, because I believed that he was right - that the giant sucking sound was our jobs being sucked out of the country.

Thanks again. I tell everyone I know to watch your show or get on your website.

Civil Rights Poseurs

IUPUI is going down the same patronizing path of most other large Universities, by beginning to give into the demands of a few. What the students should be demanding is that the University provide a rigorous learning environment for all students. Should IUPUI play a prominent role in providing higher-education opportunities to students from inner-city Indianapolis? Yes! Should these inner-city students avail themselves of every opportunity to benefit from IUPUI and the other colleges and universities found within the City of Indianapolis? Yes!

If the idea of a student union is for students to unite together, why would anyone request or provide a separate student union for one segment of the student population? It makes no sense. And if it really is that important to have a black student union, then these students should figure out how to start a building fund and solicit money from black alumni and others who would be equally supportive of this endeavor. They might find that if they tried to accomplish their objective(s) on their own, others might voluntarily help to achieve those goals.

The reality is that these students have learned, not from the real leaders of the Civil Rights Movement but from the poseurs of the post Civil Rights Era, to whine and cry for selfish reasons instead of fighting for the betterment of society.
