A Truly Lovely Bill

Every now and then, a bill is introduced somewhere that makes an important point with such panache and grace that I am forced to spray my mouthful of coke all across my computer monitor. Such a bill was recently introduced into the Texas Legislature. Prepare yourself for this one... and put down your coke before reading the rest.

This should get their attention.

A measure filed by State Rep. Lois Kolkhorst (R-Brenham) would allow any law enforcement agency that has custody of an illegal immigrant to take the illegal to 'the office of a U.S. Senator or Representative' and leave them there.

I can hear you chortling in glee... well, most of you. Those of you who ignored my instructions to put down your coke, take a moment now to clean your monitors.

This is a LOVELY bill! It even requires some representative of the Senator/Representative to provide a RECEIPT for custody of said illegal alien!

Obviously, this bill isn't intended to be taken seriously, but it does make an excellent point in a provocative manner. It's a not so subtle hint that our Congress is ignoring immigration issues and refusing to enforce existing immigration law.

An EXCELLENT bill. My congratulations to Miss Kolkhorst for her truly original and innovative idea.
