FEELINGS

TALLAHASSEE -- A state legislator whose district is home to thousands of Caribbean immigrants wants to ban the term "illegal alien" from the state's official documents.

"I personally find the word 'alien' offensive when applied to individuals, especially to children," said Sen. Frederica Wilson, D-Miami. "An alien to me is someone from out of space."

You find the word not to your liking? Well hell, what's the good of being elected if you can't do a little rearranging to suit your fancy? What names will we use then?  How about "Guests without invitations?" or "Pre-incarceration on felony charges interns?"

What's the penalty for disobeying your law if it's passed Ms. Frederica?
 
"There would be no penalty for using the words."

Grrrrr.

ATTENTION ALIENS!
Every year at this time, the National Space Administration orders all aliens to report the their local Post Office.
YOU MUST APPEAR, however briefly.

Just for the record: There is only one kind of alien.

"Space" aliens don't exist.

I wonder if the senator has a problem with the term "resident alien"?

I suppose, however, that we can accommodate the good senator. "Criminal migrants" sounds good. How about "Unprocessed deportees"?

Go look at her CV...she lists an honorary degree (D.H.L.) under "Education," from a university that offers no graduate degrees whatsoever. Doctor of Humane Letters, my aching ass.
