Lets say I break into your house

Let's say I break into your house
A lady wrote the best letter in the editorials in ages!!!
It explains things better than all the bologna you hear on TV.

Her point:
Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the
country protesting the fact that Congress is finally
addressing the issue of illegal immigration.
Certain people are angry that the US might protect
its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this
country and, once here, to stay indefinitely.

Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind
these protests Let's say I break into your house.
Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave.
But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the
dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors.
I've done all the things you don't like to do.
I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house).
According to the protesters:
You are Required to let me stay in your house
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me and to my family
(My husband will do all of your yard work because he is also
hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part.)
If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my
friends who will picket your house carrying signs that
proclaim my RIGHT to be there.
It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself.
I'm a hard-working and honest, person, except for well, you
know, I did break into your house.
And what a deal it is for me!!!
I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost
of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it without
being accused of cold, uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and
bigoted behavior.
Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you learn MY LANGUAGE!!! so you
can communicate with me.
Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?! Only in
America ...if you agree, pass it on (in English).
If not blow it off......... along with your future Social
Security funds, and a lot of other things.


Now before you get all upset with me. I have nothing at all against LEGAL immagration but I believe it should be done the legal and right way. I do not agree with letting them stay and having better benifets and insurance ect ect ect them my own children do that were born here. Why should they be better off then those of us who were born or again came into this country legally? but don't get me started on the having to press 1 to proceed in ENGLISH. that is a really soar spot with me.

Jessie is on a roll

I was looking through craigslist this morning just to see what is there. I found an add that says "Need a Farrier" I had it opened looking at it and Jessie comes up and asked me why I needed a Ferrari. I told her I didn't and let it go. Thought she was crazy. Well I sent the link to Kirk cause we need the horses feet done. When I sent it to him she was still behind me and said "Mom you DON'T need a Ferrari." I cought on then that she thought the farrier was a Ferrari. I about died and told her that was not a Ferrari but a Farrier. She asked what a Farrier was and I told her and she said oh well they are spelled the same. So I had to go look up a Ferrari to show her they are not spelled the same.
then when I went to add that here so I would never forget what she had said I was looking at some of the other posts and was reading the Turtle one and she read it and then looked dumbfounded and said "OK was it really laying eggs" Again had to laugh.

Houston we have a problem


Well we had 2 horses on craiglist for sale. Eragon which was Joey's, we sold him this past Sunday.then we had Romeo on there. He is Kirk's horse that he just had to have. Well we get him home and he is WAY too much horse for Kirk. Jessie was on him once right after we got him and he took off with her so she wouldn't get back on him. Well today I made her get on him so I could take some pics of someone on him for the add. After about 10 min she comes up and says I love him can I switch with Daddy and he can have Beauty.Kirk was ok with it.I told her she has to ride him everyday.
Kirk just talked to Jessie and told her Mommy told me my horse is no longer mine. She said "nope" he said so Beauty is mine she told him yes and he said so I can sell Beauty then. She yelled "NO" Kirk and I started laughing and she just said "jerk"
so anyway we will give her some time with him and see how devoted she really is with him and go from there. If she doesn't work him alot which he really needs then we sell him.

"Fresh Poop"

We were outside riding the horses tonight and Sarah was on Flash of course. Haley was running around following us.Well Flash stoped to poop and Haley said "Look mom she pooped Fresh poop" I about died

Goats

Well we sold 9 of our goats a couple weekends ago. Which is half. We had thought about getting rid of all them but decided to keep half of them and go from there. We are having some problems with the hotwire to keep them from going under the fence. The neighbors are getting upset. I can understand, but yesterday he called and left a message in Kirk's cell cussing him and saying if they got out again he was going to shoot them. I think that is taking a bit too far. so we are working on fence again this weekend and hopefully will be able to keep them home.

Turtle

I got home this evening and Haley came to me and told me they had found a turtle over by the neighbors house, and they have it in a white bucket. Not a feed bucket though.She said they are going to keep it as a pet. I told her they could keep in the pond. she said no we have to keep it in the bucket. I asked her what she was going to feed it. She looked at me with that DUH Mom look that she has and said " turtle food" so I asked her what turtles ate and she said fish. I asked her where she was going to get fish.she told me " in the pond with a fishing pole" I told her I think they eat bugs not fish and she got all excited. She told me the turtle is a girl and she was laying eggs next door. I told her they had to put her back if she was laying eggs. she then told me "she will finish laying them in the bucket"
