George Carlin's Solution to Save Gasoline:
Bush wants us to cut the amount of gas we use.....
The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal
immigrants!
That would be 11 million less people illegally using our gas. The
price of gas would come down...
Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the Borders...
When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a
canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq!
Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in
the U.S. military...
Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it...
After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he
defended this country...
He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot...
This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a
solution for the troops in Iraq and the illegal aliens trying to make
a better life for themselves...
If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the
canteen, rifle or ammo...
Problem solved!
If you think this is a good solution to both the problems, forward it
to your friends.
That's right. George Freaking Carlin, hero of my teenage years. From "AM and FM." The Class Clown, for crying out loud. Wow. The older you get the more likely you are to embrace a more conservative worldview. In his case, it took , like, 78 years. I may actually be able to listen to him again without feeling like a shmuck. Thanks for snapping out of it, George. Although 11 million is a lowball figure. There may be 11 mil in California alone. Still, his heart's in the right place.
