From a reader:

Just had a thought about some great political theatre. It will work better when the new passport regulations are in full effect. An American goes down to Mexico and loses his passport which would then be required for re-entry into the country. He needs to get back to work on Monday to keep his job so instead of going through all the beaurocratic steps necessary to re-enter the country he just sneaks across the border. He gets caught. The political theatre starts when the government decides to prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law. And do you have any doubt they would do that?

The left has always been better than us at politcal theater, though the affirmative action bake sales were a welcome exception. I don’t know if my correspondent’s idea is a good one, since it’s not so much political theater as it is civil disobedience (entering the United States without inspection is a federal crime, even for Americans). Come on, you guys at YAF and College Republican chapters, come up with some good stunts — we old people are depending on you!
