The mere fact that there is any debate at all on this subject is a sad indication of how bad things really are. And how bloody stupid so many people are.

I resent the Connecticut attitude that illegal aliens in their state are more worthy of in-state tuition than the citizens of Virginia are.

It's a rather smarmy attitude if you think about it. Makes me think we should push all the population currently there into the sea and re-establish Connecticut as a virgin wilderness suitible for resettlement with legitimate residents ~ maybe folks from Virginia.

If Senate Majority Leader Martin M. Looney, D- New Haven, is so keen to give money to illegal aliens, nobody is stopping him from giving his own money. Oh, I forgot, Democrats and Communists (but I repeat myself) like Looney never use their own money - rather they steal from hard-working and productive people and then they give it away...

"It seemed to me that having the bill last year be vetoed, doing something that would be somewhat more incremental is a way to renew the debate on a more limited scale," he said.

By all means! When the citizens have made it perfectly clear that they oppose an issue, just pass it a little bit at a time. That method has proven successful for many years. Eventually people will probably tire of battling the endless annual attempts to pass abhorrent legislation.
