Thanks Again, Jorge

Traffic was tied up for hours this morning thanks to a fatal wreck that the local media is attributing to another suspected drunk-driving illegal alien.

Read between the lines:

Authorities believe alcohol was a factor in a fatal accident on Interstate 40 in Raleigh.

According to the Highway Patrol, a 54-year-old man in a Chevrolet Tahoe crossed the median onto westbound I-40 near the Wade Avenue exit, striking another vehicle. Troopers said the driver of the second vehicle died in the accident.

Investigators said the Tahoe then struck a Ford Mustang. The driver of the Mustang was injured.

According to the Highway Patrol reconstruction team, tire tracks left by the Tahoe suggest the vehicle was going so fast through the median that it was turned sideways.

The driver of the Chevrolet Tahoe was taken to WakeMed. His extent of his injuries is not yet known. There is no word yet on his blood-alcohol content. The Highway Patrol is also looking into the driver's immigration status.

For those of you not familiar with North Carolina's immigrant problem, 65% of all Hispanics in the state--more than 300,000--are illegal.

That population has contributed heavily to drunk driving accidents in our state, including some high-profile local accidents.

Three were killed in November in Sanford by a drunk illegal who had already been arrested once for driving without a license, and another illegal with two previous DWI convictions killed a father and son in early March. These are just three local examples of American families shattered by drunken illegals that got behind the wheel. I could provide more from other parts of the state and other states without Google breaking a sweat.

Our federal legislators, and President Bush fail to stop these criminals at the border. Our state legislators and governors make policy decisions that turn some states (including my own) into magnets for illegal immigration, essentially inviting illegals into our cities and towns, and for what, cheap labor?

Well, I hope that lower payroll for the casket makers and grave diggers is passed along to the victim families.

I'm sure that saving money on burying their loved ones will make everything okay.
