No Woman Is Illegal?

     Talk about gratuitous.  When Democratic Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton was visiting a Las Vegas neighborhood, a man told Mrs. Clinton that his wife is illegal and she compassionately responded that no woman is illegal.   What does that mean?  As President of the United States, Mrs. Clinton, I assume would raise her hand and pledge to uphold the Constitution and I do believe the laws of the land (enforced or not) do state that there are circumstances when people in this country are considered illegal and one would assume at least some of those illegals are women.  If this is how Mrs. Clinton views the issue of illegal immigration,  I have no faith in her ability to even come close to addressing this crisis.

     Then she said of failed mortgages and vacant neighborhoods, "We treat these problems as if one is guacamole and one is chips, when ... they both go together," she said.  I guess she was trying to relate to the neighborhood as she stood by taking notes and eating tortilla chips.  Forgive me if all of this causes me to choke on my chips.  Maybe next week when she visits Little Italy she'll compare the issue to spaghetti and meatballs or in Chinatown she'll talk about Kung Pow Chicken and Soy sauce.  Somebody stop me!! Now I'm hungry.

      The sad thing is politicians in general think this is the way to relate to the people and then they play on the fears of these people and all too many people buy into it.  Hillary Clinton can no more relate to these people in Las Vegas then you or I can relate to what it's like to be the Queen of England.
