Jon-David Wells Representing Dallas, TX in Washington, D.C.

I apologize for not explaining myself more clearly, because Veritas…and KPLEX…have made my point for me. Let me explain.

As shown in the Cajejo-Dominguez event as well as countless other debates on the subject, the topic of immigration has been beat to death. We’ve seen this issue argued ad nauseam. And what changes have we seen? Virtually none. Our elected officials chose to make this a political issue rather than an American issue. And we all know that when politics becomes the #1 priority, the only ones who win are the politicians.

So, when I say immigration is a stale issue I mean I’m tired of hearing about an issue that will not change in the immediate future. Not until we see a wholesale change in attitudes and priorities in Washington.

Over the last couple of hours I asked 9 people I work with what they thought of the issue of immigration, illegal aliens and the media coverage of the issue. The results of my purely unscientific study are that every person agrees on the seriousness of the issue. All nine people agree that it has now become a political issue. All nine also agree that the incessant harping in the various forms of media has become old. That, to me, spells a disconnect – at least on the part of the people in my seat-of-the-pants survey.

From my “man on the street” perspective, regardless of how righteous we may be on a given issue, beating a dead horse still leaves you with nothing, in the end, but a dead horse – sort of stale after a while.

JD, a suggestion: While I admire the job you are doing about 98% of the time, you might give some thought to which battles you chose to fight, and how you wish to deal with some of these "dead horse" issues.

Jesus! To think just two weeks ago most everyone on here was Berating Jon David ??? Looks like i'm gonna have to pass out the Meds ;)

I haven't changed my view. Jon-David's a self-important chestbeater who thinks he's funny and intelligent, and Bolton's just boring. Why can't Dallas do better?
