Have the Phillies been any closer than 2 games from first place all year?

The Phillies came from behind tonight in the 8th inning in a 2-0 ball game to score three runs and hold on with Bret Myers striking out the sides in the 9th inning for a for a 3-2 win.  Life is good. 

Now that's news!  Today the headline read: "Giuliana Vows to Stop Illegal Immigrants"  but I've heard that before. 

As a registered Republican, my vote is way up in the air right now.  I could vote Democrat or Republican, my vote won't hinge on one issue but a big one to me is our borders.  I'm so sick of hearing how we can't just close off our borders to the world.  Yes we can!  Times are-a-changin'!  Have you heard that before?

Rudy Giuliani is a great shoot from the hip guy and I do recall him actually getting things done in New York when he cared for that state but I am so tired of hearing words from just about every candidate that they will do something only to forget what they spoke about later.  At least in today's news Giuliani gave an outline of his plan.  He proposes a tamperproof ID card (relative statement) that includes fingerprinting for everyone entering the country and a central database to track when they leave.  Wow, that is a lot of terrabytes of data and heck!  A lot of terrabytes of RAM!  A central database sounds great.  Now who is going to design develop and implement it?  Ah... this will never happen. 

Giuliani is even on record as insisting all immigrants who become citzens learn English.  This country is way too touchy feely for that to happen.  But a guy can dream can't he?

OK, mark Giulani off your list as probable next President. He has too high of hopes for this place. LOL
