I've got a new fan

Reader P.Z. just loves the work I'm doing here at GOBR. He especially loves the comments I made about Arizona's new anti-immigrant law. Here's what P.A. wrote:
Read the damn Arizona law before you mouth off about it. It does no such thing. You sound like another marxist jerk.
The rest of the email is even more insulting, and I'm sure he didn't really mean it. I am Babe Ruth, after all. People love me!

A couple points I'd like to make in my defense:

- I checked into what the law really does, and I was pretty close in my description. But I was wrong about police being able to tattoo the letter "I" on people's foreheads. My bad. Instead, all the police get is a legal right to hassle and possibly arrest anyone who doesn't have "papers." I remember when I was alive, I used to carry my papers with me everywhere. Everyone has papers, right?

- I'm really sorry for my little mistake. I pride myself on never making mistakes or exaggerating the truth. I'm kinda like Fox News in that regard: 100% accurate at all times. I'll bet P.Z. is very familiar with Fox News. That must be why he loves my site so much.

I don't want this to get too serious. Immigration is a real problem in America, just like it's a problem out here, too. The person in charge out here is letting everyone in. The official rule is that all they have to do is die and then theyy can hang out with Hall of Famers like me. Even if they're National Leaguers! But in reality, out here, we do check their papers and segregate National Leaguers into a separate area. We only let them mingle with us if they praise the designated hitter. We give them a path to become honorary American Leaguers.

So P.Z., come back to the site. I promise to be ultra-precise and respectful whenever I talk about shit in the future. Just like Rush Limbaugh.
