Maybe we can deport ourselves to a country of our choice. Irish_Dem Apr 13 #1
Hope she can write an eloquent letter, telling how very much she wishes she could return to the country of her birth -- eppur_se_muova Apr 13 #2

a wonderfully democratic country where people didn't fear poverty in old age, or due to injury, or accident of birth, because their gov't maintained a social safety net to prevent (at least the worst of) such things. A country where elections were free and fair, where justice applied to the powerful and the common man alike, and where no amount of money could buy a guilty man out of indictment and imprisonment. Where those who perverted justice, or subverted their government and society, were certain to face justice. A country loved throughout the world as an exemplar of justice, fairness, and opportunity, which was an enemy only to the dictators and subservives of the world, and which was always ready to support those who fought for democracy and against tyranny. Sadly, that country no longer exists, so she can no longer go there. If he, as President, wishes to do something to restore that wonderful democracy to its former glory, perhaps HE could self-deport.
