I think a lot of people may have voted for Morris because they are tired of all the liberal crap. Not because they thought she would crack down on illegal kids in our schools.

That's a good point. So, what do you think about paying for their kids education? I agree that it's unfair, but I do not see an alternative if we are not going to enforce immigration laws.

We had a young fellow work for us one summer. (I guess that makes me part of the problem.) He already had a green card by then. One day, at lunch, he was telling us about going to school in Mexico. He was at school one day when there was an eclipse of the sun. He said the teacher poked a hole in the roof so the kids could watch the sunlight, and the shadow of the moon, on the floor of the classroom. My wife asked him... "Your teacher poked a hole in the roof?" He said "Yes. It was a tin roof. Like your shed." He didn't think anything of it. He came to the US with his older brother who had a work permit. He finished school in Texas. He's got kids of his own now. And a job. He pays taxes. It really doesn't bother that he went to school in this country, even if he wasn't legal at the time.

The liberals have twisted the question around. It shouldn't be a question as to whether or not they should be allowed to attend school. It should be a question as to whether or not they should be allowed to stay in this country. If they are here illegally, then going to school shouldn't even be an option. But like you say, we are not serious about enforcing the law. I don't know if it is because we want a cheap supply of labor of if it is just politics. Probably both.
