I got this in an email
George Carlin's Solution to Save Gasoline :












Bush
wants us to cut the amount of gas we use.....











The
best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal
immigrants!













That
would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas
would come down.....













Bring
our troops home from Iraq to
guard the Border....













When
they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a
canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq ...









Tell
him if he wants to come to America then
he must serve a tour in the military....









Give
him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it.....













After
his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended
this country.....









He
will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot..... .













This
option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a
solution for the troops in Iraq and
the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves.. ....













If
they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq
anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo.....









Problem
solved.....

Yah , but Georges numbers, 11 million should be the more realistic, 45 million. wouldn't be room to fight in Iraq with that many new Iraqi citizens.

Best summary is on Carlins website (though he doesn't mention this one specifically):
