The Bird Feeder

I bought a birdfeeder. I hung It on my back porch and filled It with seed. What a beauty of A bird feeder it is, as I filled it Lovingly with seed. Within a Week we had hundreds of birds Taking advantage of the Continuous flow of free and Easily accessible food.

But then the birds started Building nests in the boards Of the patio, above the table, And next to the barbecue.

Then came the poop; it was everywhere: on the patio tile, The chairs, the table ... Everywhere!

Then some of the birds turned mean. They would Dive bomb me and try to Peck me even though I had Fed them out of my own Pocket.

And others birds were Boisterous and loud. They Sat on the feeder and Squawked and screamed at All hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it When it got low on food.

After a while, I couldn't even Sit on my own back porch Anymore. So I took down the Bird feeder and in three days The birds were gone.

I cleaned Up their mess and took down The many nests they had built All over the patio.

Soon, the back yard was like It used to be ... Quiet, serene And no one demanding their Rights to a free meal.

Now let's see .. ..

Our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care, and free Education and allows anyone Born here to be an automatic Citizen.

Then the illegals came by the Tens o f thousands.

Suddenly Our taxes went up to pay for Free services; small apartments Are housing 5 families; you Have to wait 6 hours to be seen By an emergency room doctor;

Your child's 2nd grade class is behind other Schools because over half the class doesn't speak English.

Corn Flakes now come in a Bilingual box; I have to 'press one' to hear my bank Talk to me in English, and People waving flags other Than 'Old Glory' are Squawking and screaming In the streets, demanding More rights and free liberties.

Just my opinion, but maybe it's time for the Government to ta ke down the birdfeeder.

If the illegals are sooooo hardworking,industrious, blah blah blah why can't they fix their own country? If all they want to do is work hard don't you think they could find plenty of that in their own countries? And the people that can't be bothered to find their birth certificates for REAL ID, well I guess it is too much trouble to go vote as well, isn't it.

As long as we continue to vote for democrats this is our children future. The democrat party stays in power by keeping large minority groups dependent on the hope of another democratic handout. The worst problem for the democrats is the fear their followers become successful. Because if this should happen they would become Harris republicans.

Standard xenophobic garbage.

Was it not the current Bush administration that wanted to allow illegals to become "temporary" U.S. workers? You know . . . business owners get the financial advantage of cheap labor and the rest of us pay their expenses? Maybe Democrats do give too many handouts to the poor and minorities; is it better for large oil companies and non-compete corporations like Halliburton to get billions from the Republican administration? Which brand of welfare is less sickening? Speaking of welfare, is it more humane to allow reproductive choice or to legislate that poor mothers give birth to babies they cannot afford and then eliminate all public assistance? Knowing the parent cannot support a child that society insists must be born makes all of us responsible for paying for that child.

Boy,you ain't seen nothing yet! Just wait until Hillary or Barrack get elected. Remember when Edwards pulled out of the race he made each one of them to promise they would do away with poverty if elected.
Does anybody rememeber Lyndon Johnson and his Great Society. The number one promise of the Great Society was to do away with poverty. Don't you worry about who's pocket the money is coming from. It's yours dummy, if you do not think so then why are people who pay NO tax getting a $300 dollar refund.
