Boy, this administration’s immigration policy has me really confused. Now I

read in my morning newspaper that the U.S. will not accept Haitians fleeing

from the wretched conditions in their country. Said Pres. Bush yesterday:

“We will turn back any refugee that attempts to reach our shore, and that

message needs to be very clear as well to the Haitian people.” Now hold on

a minute. Any such refugees would merely be “seeking to improve life for

themselves and their families,” wouldn’t they? I bet they’d be only too

willing to do “those jobs Americans will not do.” And I have no doubt that

plenty of “willing employers” can be found to match these “willing workers.”

So… what’s the problem? Let ‘em come! After all, we are a “nation of

immigrants,” aren’t we?
