Issue #1:

In keeping up with the "I want to hear from you" theme - I am picking one of the issues listed in my previous blog entry, and proposed some questions for you to respond.

Immigration and the Border controversy....

Should the U.S. have an open border policy? What would be the advantages and/or disadvatanges of an open border?

How has the U.S. benefited or been disadvantaged by the influx of illegal immigrants?

Should the U.S. secure the borders and enforce the current procedure to enter legally? If so, what would be an effective method?

How should the current 12 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. be handled? Guest worker program? Amnesty? Deportation? Do nothing?

What, if any, are the unintended consequences should the borders be left unsecure and the issue ignored?

Do you believe that current terror organizations have and/or are taking advantage of the ease in crossing the border illegally?

Weekend at a Glance: 4/7/06-4/9/06

Friday: Tired, Tired, Tired...so, didn't really do anything :(

Saturday: Rain, Rain, Rain...lacrosse game was cancelled, and was forced to do housework. Then, went over to Stacy and Scott's for burgers and cards - and, oh, the "toilet" humor was at its peak that night...not exactly "PG" conversation.

Sunday: Sunny, Sunny, Sunny....so, after doing yardwork and such, went out bike riding down along the GW Parkway alongside the Potomac. Caught some cool views of planes taking off down at National Airport. And, woah was it crowded along the trail y'day.

Preview for Next Weekend: On a very special episode of "Weekend at a Glance", J2 spends Easter Sunday with the family and sees young Sebastian laughing it up.
