Constance Cafavy And Comprehensive Amnesty Reform

America has a significant and over-arching problem. A problem that explains the flaccid economy and the dystopic dysfunction that is Bulletmore, Murderland or Chicago, ILLinois. Its a problem that a very smart and evil man-spider named Charles Schumer has figured out and that a very ambitious and amoral man name Marco Rubio suffers from as he seeks to acquire more power and dominance. Its a problem that arises when a civilization spends itself out and doesnt understand and believe that it has a purpose beyond being a giant pez-dispenser of goodies to a clamoring populace. We are a nation that no longer believes that it holds any particular special moral high ground and the immigration debate in Congress is just another attempt to either fix this problem or make it go away. 

Schumer, Rubio and the rest of the Gang of 8 seek to make the problem go away. If you have a population that you believe sucks and cant cut it in the modern world, you can solve this problem two ways. You can upgrade this populace and seek to improve them as human beings, or you can hose them out the way Hercules cleaned the Augean Stables and replace them with harder workers. Senator Rubio explains below. 

So you bring in the new work force. Hose the losers into a ghetto or trailer park somewhere. Keep their EBT Cards filled, let them watch NASCAR, smoke blunts and drink their 40oz. OEs. Why? Because thats all the Schumers, the McCains and the Rubios of the world think that the work-a-day, non college-educated American is good for anymore. The elected leadership and the cognitive elite of this nation now believes that the typical guy who just does his job and gets his diploma is an ineluctable, moronic jerk-off who would have been no better than an Epsilon in Aldous Huxleys Brave New World. 

Way back when things were rotten, a younger,A howospareparts is a plastic card that has a computer chip implanted into it that enables the card. less-decayed RMJ sat in a Roman History Course and listened as a talented and inspiring professor explained why 3rd and 4th Century AD Romans didnt particularly care whether stinking, rapacious barbarians did the Mark Gastineau Sack Dance in the Temple of Mars Ultor. She did so by reading us a poem written by Greek Poet Constance Cavafy. The poem, ironically entitled The Barbarians, expresses the utter self-loathing and contempt the Romans had developed for their own civilization by the time the barbarians crossed over the Danube.

We toady to the Modern Barbarian. We give it all away because we dont believe our current civilization has the guts or ability to even bother enforcing the laws that we passed but no longer believe are moral or ethical to even enforce. If we pass this amnesty to avoid, you know, offending people who have illegally crossed our borders, than it isnt just the American Worker who cant cut it. Its America that doesnt measure up. If you believe the Gang of Eight Amnesty Reform should pass, roll up your American Exceptionalism and go wipe your butt with it. 

On May 23 Sherry Li of the China City of America Project introduced plans for a $6 billion development on 2,232 acres of land straddling the Mamakating-Thompson town line in Sullivan County at a special meeting before local officials. Colorful brochures depicting a truly fantastical realm were handed out to those officials and the public was not allowed comment. But with research, websites tied to the project were unveiled, along with a sense of the basic idea behind whats being proposed. 

Plans at this very initial stage, Li noted, are provisional and subject to change. They include an amusement park, a museum, a martial arts pavilion, various culturally-themed parks, theaters, a shopping mall, a school, a medical center, senior housing, two hotels, 1,000 units of housing (both western and Chinese style), a high-tech center with offices and showrooms, and possibly a casino. 

With thousands of years of history and culture China is unique, elegant and inspiring, proclaims the brochure. The China City of America Project is designed to portray this culture using Feng Shui principles for visitors to experience. 

Thank goodness there's more to Bob Benson than his sexuality. This episode, Mad Men viewers finally get the "Who is Bob Benson?" payoff they've been waiting for, and although he's not a CIA operative, the truth is still pretty juicy. He's taken a page out of Don Draper's playbook by fabricating his alma mater and his work experience to the point that corporate recruiter Duck Phillips tells Pete C who's on a mission to push Bob Benson out of SC&P C that Bob's personnel record "might as well be written in steam." 

Bob has certainly reinvented himself, from a West Virginia country boy to "manservant" for the senior vice president of Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. to up-and-coming SC&P accounts man . . . to Pete Campbell's adversary du jour.Best home oilpaintingsforsales at discount prices. But Pete's been around this block with Don before, when he happened upon Don's box of secrets in Season One,The whole variety of the brightest formalofficdresses is now gathered under one roof. and rather than trying to blackmail Bob into leaving the agency like he did with Don, Pete tells Bob he wants him to "graciously accept" his apology and that they're still to work together, but Pete is "off-limits." Even to Have and to Hold can't compete with this level of dual identities. 

The episode opens with Megan waking up alone, then going to check on Don, who's lying in the fetal position, hungover and sleeping in Sally's room. (And aren't we all a little hungover from watching Sally walk in on Don and Sylvia in flagrante delicto, and discovering beyond the shadow of a doubt that her dad's a cheater and a hypocrite, all wrapped into once nice, neat, drunk package?) Megan thinks he's simply been drinking too much: "I don't know what's going on, but you've gotta pull back on the throttle a little bit, honey." Later, in the kitchen, encourages him to stay home from work, saying, "Please try and sleep it off." Instead, Don mainlines orange juice and vodka like it's lifeblood. 

While doing some numb channel-surfing C including a Nixon ad, The Patty Duke Show, and some fantastically bad acting by Megan as Colette on To Have and to Hold (Don looks horrified C he's never really seen her act past his one visit to cock-block her performance on set) C Don gets a call from Betty, who says Sally is not going to Don's this weekend, or ever again, actually. Sally has decided she wants to go away to boarding school. No surprise there, considering recent events. Don says, a little too quickly,Weymouth is collecting gently used, dry cleaned glassbottles at their Weymouth store. that he'll "pay for all of it." Betty is delighted about Sally's choice of school, Miss Porter's,The largest manufacturer of textile smartcard for use with perchloroethylene. which Jackie Onassis attended. "Jackie did well twice," Betty says, referencing her two lucrative marriages. "As did you," Don says. Touch. In a lame attempt at fatherhood perhaps not seen since the fateful Disneyland trip, Don asks Betty, "Will you tell her that Megan C we both C miss her?" 

Later, in the car with Betty, Sally's eating her feelings with McDonald's french fries and wearing her hair in a low side ponytail, a style that can't be an accident, as we last saw that hairdo on her world-weary, sycophantic friend Julie last episode. "I want to be grown up, but I know how important my education is," Sally tells Betty, in a blaze of Don Draper-esque BS glory.
