Legally Blonde 3
Reese Witherspoon better watch her ass because I am totally turning into Elle Woods. Last Friday I was at a meeting with some Congressional staffers and national immigration advocates to talk abotu Bush's sad-ass immigration proposal. Was we're passing around the sign in sheet, I dig through my backpack and the only pen I have is one that writers in glittery pink ink. With fake fur on its cap. It's really the ONLY pen in my backpack. I end up taking it out and writing my name, fax number and email in glittery pink. I am also taking notes with a pink, fur-lined pen. I am waving said pen as I am saying things like "the Democrats need to give a clear alternative to the Bush proposal that ensures for earned legalization, future flows and family backlogs." Yes, waving a pink, fur-lined pen around. CLAASSAYH!
Speaking of the Bush immigration proposal, it sucks. It totally goes against human nature. It allows people to work in the U.S for three years, bring their families in, and then kicks them out. Who cares if people have children who are citizens? Who cares if they paid tazes, bought homes, and invested in their families. Even more, it provides no worker protections so a company can force someone to work under horrific conditions and if they complain, they are out of the country. Nice.
