A Reader in Alaska Says Yalies Are A
Big Part Of The Immigration Problem
From: Mike Sweeley [e-mail
him]
Re: Don Collins’ Column:
A Democrat, Yale Grad, Decries New Haven’s Illegal Alien
ID
Collins’ column is well taken and his points concise.
I agree with him that the illegal alien problem is
out of control and, if not stopped, will result in
America’s destruction.
But if Collins, a Democrat, thinks that
Senator Hillary Clinton—-a fellow Yale graduate and
Democrat—-may have the answer then I have a bridge to
sell him.
The best and perhaps the last chance to get the
federal government to enforce immigration law is to
elect someone like
Republican Fred Thompson If Collins cannot accept
that, then I can only conclude that his politics trumps
his love of country.
My point is simply that illegal immigration and
legal Islamic immigration are the two most direct
threats to America’s survival.
What New Haven has done is against federal law and
represents anarchy.
If those who we elect are allowed to selectively pick
and choose what laws they like or do not like and
enforce only those they like, then things are bad.
If Collins’s fellow Yale alumni cannot see the
problems, then they are
traitors. Wisdom does not come from a book but from
life’s experiences.
That’s why most ordinary Americans get it while the
Yale elite don’t.
I’m one of the everyday folk who know that if we
continue down the road we now travel, our country will
soon be a balkanized nightmare.

replies:
Despite Sweeley’s attack on
Yale University, I agree with his central point that the
country is on the wrong path. And, as I pointed out in
my column, I share Sweeley’s disappointment in Yale
University’s failure to condemn New Haven’s
identification card for illegal aliens.
