Yet Another Illegal Alien? Just Super, Man

I was down on Congress Avenue for lunch yesterday. Have I mentioned it was really hot? Unreasonably hot, in fact. Maybe we should start taking this global-warming thing seriously.

Given the temperature, I was amazed to find protesters out at the South entrance to the Capitol. Of course, we all know that the Women in Black show up every Wednesday around noon. Hot or not. (Didn't their mothers tell them not to get out in the August sun dressed in black? Seriously.)

There were also a few guys protesting immigration. I thought this was old news. But, it seems they had just clued in that Superman is from another planet. You got it - you're way ahead of me here - making him (horrors) an illegal alien. And, this is protest-worthy. Even in the August heat.

When President Bush heard about it,he said, "What? We're getting illegal aliens crossing our borders from other planets? That's just super, man. Send in the National Guard!"
