Why I don't like you, Representative Tom Tancredo, R-Colorado

Nobody is jealous of you. You think other people don't like you because you're cute or well-respected and they are just jealous. You are dead wrong, Mr. Chairman of the House Immigration Reform Caucus. You are not handsome. In fact, in some pictures your right eye is noticeably higher than your left. Also, you think we should shoot people committing drug crimes. You are a right wing lunatic dressed in the ill fitting sport coat of a former educator.

Now you have done it. I was willing to forgive the fact that you are a xenophobic radical, but now you have crossed the line. You called Miami a third-world country. Hell hath no fury like angry Cubans who are upset for the wrong reasons. Must I remind you of a little boy, now 12 year old man, named Elian. Cubans will rally to defeat you. They will all move to Colorado's 6th District, that big rectangle southwest of Denver, and for the first time in their lives, they will vote Democrat. All because they think you insulted them. Way to go Tom,dumbass.

If you meant to imply that the middle class is disappearing in Miami and we are left with only the richest and poorest, well, I could sympathize with that. But that's not what you meant. You're a Republican, you don't care about a vanishing middle class. You were just being a prick, insinuating that somehow, because Miami is an international city, the business hub of Central and South America, where Spanish and Creole mix with English, where immigrant populations form vibrant communities the same way they have done throughout our history; somehow because of all that, Miami is a Third World city. You didn't even know there was such a moniker as "Fourth World. "

The fact that you implied that Miami is like a place without basic utilities like running water, a lawless place without economic development, is doubly troublesome. It's not just the people of Miami you insulted, you also revealed yourself to be an idiot, oblivious to horrible conditions around the world where blinding poverty is so pervasive, outdated idiots like yourself won't even include those unfortunate populations as part of our "First" world, you relegate them to the "Third." Maybe that's why you're so excited about the fence to keep them out.

You might also want to remember that there are people other than Christians living here in South Florida when you publish your childish, "I told you so." In summary, you are a prick. Another blog by one of your own constituents puts you in perspective for us all. You can always move when the Cubans start showing up in Littleton.
