I can see the conversation in my head....

Wingnut -- Them Mexicans come here to steal our jobs.

Me - I don't think so. I read someplace Mexicans are actually fatter than Americans and that's saying something.

Wingnut -- what does that have to do with stealing our jobs.

Me -- well like Mitt Romney said, them Mexicans are only here doing the jobs Americans don't want to do. So most of them end up picking lettuce. Do you want to go out in the hot ass sun and pick lettuce all day?

Wingnut -- Not really.

Me -- Besides Michelle Obama keeps trying to shove her terrorist veggies down our throats and I think those fat Mexicans are really just coming up here to get some of those free Obamacare liberal veggies.

Wingnut -- Glazed over confused look.......

Me -- Come on, let's go eat 3 or 4 of those Hardees Monster Burger w/triple bacon and show Obama who's boss.....
