(Democratic) Tricks Are for Kids

This little tutorial is the latest measure our Department of Commerce's Census Bureau has devised as an apparent stop gap measure made necessary because those two radical conservatives entrapped ACORN into the alleged and patently unjust appearance of supposed impropriety and rendered them ineligible to perform their unequalled service of providing reliable, accurate data about potential democrat voters, real or imagined. No problem, there is another demographic who is quite comfortable making up things and playing "let's pretend". No, not Hollywood elite, I mean, yes, them too, but we can't pay them enough to bother them with REAL work, so they're out. No, the government's solution to replace ACORN is "school kids". Yep. You know, those cute little buggers who run around still unaware of things like personal volume control, the myths of holiday beings of altruism, and, conveniently, political agendas such as the census in the hands of people who are intent on getting more votes and more money for social programs (and hence their social program government jobs) irrespective of the veracity of the data they harvest.

It's the only way to get illegal immigrants counted? Unless you are counting them to determine how big a bus we need to carry them back to the border, I have two words: "so" and "what".

It's the only way to get actual citizens who are hiding from the government (i.e. fearful of being apprehended for a prior crime)? Hey, same two words.

Okay, then, what about all the LEGAL immigrants who don't speak English? I'll bet I got you on that one, Mudge! You're right, Alter Mudge, you did. I need two new words for that one: "learn" and "english".

Look, even the cold-hearted, uncompassionate bastard that I am realizes an accurate census is difficult to achieve. But using kids, although a considerable step up in reliability from ACORN who the Bureau was once intent on using, makes me wonder to what length we'll go to achieve the political agenda of the NeoSocs.
