Let’s make it a round dozen:

12. If an American kid elopes from home and is picked up by a policeman, he’s a “runaway child,” and the government is duty-bound to return him to his lawful custodial parent(s) or guardian immediately, but if a Central American child surrenders to la Migra right after wetbacking his way across the border from Mexico, he’s an “unaccompanied minor” to be treated as a refugee, you live in a country run by idiots.

This country elected Obama twice. Not only run by idiots but filled with voting age idiots.

Country that elected Obama once is clearly one filled with idiots.
Voting him in again? Proof that it’s a country that is willingly trying to suicide itself.
A country filled with idiots who are allowed to vote will by default be run by idiots. It’s only logical for idiots to make idiotic choices.

When Obama was first elected I feared a Jimmy Carter second term.
How wrong I was – at least Jimmy Carter was a good decent man.

right after wetbacking

It used to be called giving birth, now it is ‘birthing’. English is so flexible that nouns can be converted to verbs in no time; text becomes texting. Tucci is birthing the new practice of, assholeing.

You made a good point, though, Tooch. I will have to echo bb’s sentiment above.
