          But we know he'd be running guns and drugs across the border instead. Oh yeah, and do those jobs that Americans don't want to do.

                    Mr. Bush just called me to reach Mrs. Boyle for future employment with the border patrol. She says she will not work but Mr. Bush acknowledges that his decision is final. If she does a good job at $3.00 per hour he will raise her lifestyle with permanent employment in Iraq. The pay scale will go up also to $3.25 cents and hour and .50 cent per hour hazardous duty pay. Mr. Boyle can then retire.

                    Mr. Fuentez is acknowledged by Mr. Cheney to have a high moral character and is a friend and companion on his hunting trips. Mr. Fuentez is seeking higher office at the present time and Mr. Bush is instructing him on World affairs and how they should be conducted.

                    Another side benefit would be that Mr. Fuentez will have Donald Rumsfelf in charge of The Department of Human Resources to benefit all American for the well being of our future evolution. Condi will be Ambassador at large smiling and waving while she lands at all stops. Mr. Fuentez say her smile will win the world over.

                      I enjoyed the humor but on a serious note illegal immigrants are taking away job opportunities for disabled Americans. Disabled Americasn used to be trained for these jobs through various voc rehab programs. Employers are not participating in these training programs because they are able to hire illegals. This is good for the illegals but is going to present a bigger problem for Americans whose tax dollars go to support our disabled population. These skilled jobs helped the disabled contribute to their support. Without these jobs they will be looking to the government for assistance. There are plenty of Americans willing and able to perform the jobs now being given to illegals.

                          There are several different types of disabilities. Learning disabilities, physical disabilities, mental disabilities etc. A person with a learning disability may be able to do heavy lifting just has difficulty reading. Where have all the skilled training schools gone? People with disabilities can be trained to work in minimum wage jobs. These jobs supplement their disability payments. Working in hotels, restaraunts, stocking warehouses, gardening, are all jobs disabled Americans can be trained to perform. People complain because their taxes go to support social welfare programs for the disabled yet they have no problem allowing illegals compete with the disabled for jobs.
