And the Band Played On

This story struck me as very funny. A Republican candidate, Raj Bhakta, who is running for the U.S. House of Representatives seat in Eastern Pennsylvania, decided to make a point about the porousness of our borders by hiring a six piece mariachi band and three elephants to cross the Rio Grande.

Said Bhakta, “If I can get an elephant led by a mariachi band into this country, I think Osama bin Laden could get across with all the weapons of mass destruction he could get into this country.” The mariachi band was not immediately available for comment.
