First guy: Dude, your car’s running a little rough.
Second guy: Yeah. Let’s pull over and have a look under the hood. (gets out, raises hood, both guys look at the engine, look at each other, and look at the engine several times)
….
….
….
First guy: Well, there’s your problem right there.

It could be worse. He could have had hippies.

Robert Byrd?

Sorry, my bad. Wrong kind of hood.

Grandpa Fred: Hey Howard, there’s your Chinaman.
Howard: Thanks Fred.

It is amazing the lengths that people go through to enter this country. At least they know that this is the land of opportunity.

What a stark contrast to all those Americans who take their opportunities and freedom for granted. These are the same people who think America is the villain of the world and take every chance they get to bash this great country.

I’m not in favor of illegal immigration, but if I were, I would at least give these America-bashers the option to exchange places with the guy in the dash board for a one-way trip back across the border.

I don’t think there would be any takers.

US Customs and Border Protection said inspectors found the 40-year-old man crammed into the dash of a Mercury Sable mid-size car during a routine inspection at the Calexico port of entry in southern California on Saturday.

Yeah, but at the rental agency, they told him a Sable was a “full size” car.

I know the parts all come from china but i had no idea they came with actual chinese labor

Defector01 on February 7, 2007 at 1:34 PM

The man was quoted as saying, “So this is what they meant by making a dash across the border.”

The discovery was the latest of a growing number of attempts to smuggle undocumented immigrants concealed in car seats,

SMUGGLE ILLEGAL ALIENS across the border. They can’t get it right even when caught with odometers and tachometers stuck in their arses..

try putting them inside the tires, like you do with the drugs.

Damn, I was going to try that to get my mother in law into the country. Seriously.

Dude, if anyone deserves amnesty, it’s someone who went the distance like this.

I wonder what the Moonbats think of this.
People going to all this trouble to get into such a bad country. A horrid country. a country that sends mercs to kill innocent peace loving people in Iraq.

Jesus gave his life for your soul.
Americans give their life for your freedom

If the left could only be cured of their BDS?

On the View this morning, Rosie said that when the Chinese guy was discovered, all he had to say for himself was:”"ching chong, ching ching chong”

there it is on February 7, 2007 at 2:09 PM

“It’s still better than flying coach!”

That made me laugh!

Nethicus on February 7, 2007 at 2:28 PM

ReubenJCogburn, that was funny!!!!!!!!!

Dread Pirate Roberts VI on February 7, 2007 at 2:34 PM

LOL That may work in court. “Your Honor, this man did not try to enter this country illegally, he was trapped in the dash after installing the radio! I ask that these charges be dismissed.”

Good question. The Libs I know all think this is a great country.

With a few exceptions such as:
our currently elected government,
our capitalist economy,
our volunteer military,
our Western Christian culture,
our insistence on remaining a representative-Republic instead of a socialist democracy,
our insistence on heterosexual marriage,
our refusal to tax churches,
our constitution which really doesn’t mandate separation of church and state they way they want it,
our rejection of socialized medicine,
our insistence that voters must be legal citizens,
our insistence that foriegn workers must pay taxes,
our insistence that children can not give consent for sex,
our desire to build more power plants to maintain our population with cheap power,
etc.

I’m sure you all can think up a few more.

But, other than that, Liberals think America is a great nation.

Lawrence on February 7, 2007 at 4:52 PM

Lawrence, good comment!

…our insistence to own guns

Entelechy on February 7, 2007 at 6:25 PM

At this rate they’re going to need to install Vehicle X-Rays at all the border crossings.

Jones Zemkophill on February 7, 2007 at 6:50 PM

They need to get some of those heartbeat sensors from Rainbow Six to our border patrol guys.

JackOfClubs on February 7, 2007 at 7:58 PM

…our insistence upon the rule of law as the foundation of a free society

…our belief in the value of morality, and in the morality of values.

…our agreement with the founders that this nation will only be blessed as long as God is revered.

Jones Zemkophill on February 7, 2007 at 6:50 PM

And after they do, you’ll be able to count the days before an illegal alien shows up with his crooked, ambulance-chasing lawyer (paging John Edwards), claiming that he got cancer from the X-rays.

ReubenJCogburn on February 7, 2007 at 8:26 PM

At least it wasn’t a Mexican!
