Sandy, old friend, while we may be on opposite sides, politically, I do agree with you that it would be nice to see things swing away from the extreme - on both sides. While some of what is called political correctness should, more accurately, be called common courtesy it has often been carried to the extreme.
I think the vast majority of the country, in both parties, agrees we should have secure borders. The problem is that Congress won't do anything about a realistic, comprehensive immigration policy. Maybe now the election rhetoric is over they will get down to the business of running the country. I don't hold my breath, though, because as I've said it seems politics have become a zero-sum game. It would be nice if people would respect that other people may not have the same view of things as they do and work together to compromise instead of calling each other names.
