Illegal Immigrants in the Border Patrol
I want to know how this guy got hired.
There is no way they should be working the border until the FBI background check is completed. Some Department of Homeland Security.
Why was he even hired before the background check was complete? I know it's standard practice but that doesn't make it intelligent, only convenient.
I can only wait until the this conversation is reported:
"Okay, John"
"Please sir, call me Mohammed"
"Interesting nickname you've got Mohammed, but whatever you say. Wouldn't want you to feel unwelcome. Anyway, now that you're working for the department of Homeland Security, you'll want to know what your days off are. I see here it says you're Jewish, so you're going to want Saturday off whenever we can give it to you?"
"Actually, sir, I prefer Fridays."
"Okay, sure if you need that day. Now this is your partner Patrick McDougal. He likes us to call him Abdul for some reason."
"Actually, sir, we already met. We took flight training together."
"Wow, that's great. No wonder they hired you two guys. If anything happens to the flight crew, you can take over and fly the airplane, right?"
"Yes, sir! That's actually kind of a dream of mine."
"Well, you're going to have to understand why I kind of hope it doesn't happen. Now get down to the armory and draw your weapons. We've got something special for you on your first day, a Delta 777 non-stop to Washington National. Make sure you visit the Capitol while you're there. Because you work for us, you can get right in, no problem."
"Thank you, sir. We'll make a point of it."
"And don't worry about that FBI check. I'm sure it'll come back fine!"
"We're not concerned with that, sir. Far as we're concerned, we're in paradise already."
I mean, I know neither party's heart is in it, but can't they at least pretend to care?
UPDATE: Welcome to readers of Lt. Smash and Indepundit readers (and a large thank you to Citizen Smash himself). Also added one more snark above.

- Day by Day It is site policy to list the main page of every site I reference. Sometimes the real world intervenes and I haven't gotten to it yet, or one falls through the cracks on a long post with multiple references. It is also site policy to list the main page of every site that lists this one on their equivalent roll, as well as the main page of all sites that are members of any of the same groups this site is a member of. Please send me an email with a link to the main page of your site if I've overlooked you (dm at the domain name). For the clue-challenged, note that it is a requirement for your link to appear on every page of your site, just like mine does, and I will not link to spam sites.

Logical failures (straw man, ad hominem, red herring, etcetera) will be pointed out - and I hope you'll point out any such errors I make as well. If there's something you don't understand, ask.
Nonetheless, the idea of comments should be constructive. Aim them at the issue, not the individual. Consider it a challenge to make your criticism constructive. Try to be respectful. Those who make a habit of trollish behavior will be banned.
