This is an episode which no one should shun.
May 10th, 2010 at 12:07 am
My appreciation of your explanation of the situation is without limitation.
May 10th, 2010 at 1:12 am
That was pure genius!!!

Ovation!

It will not play. I jams at the 5 second mark and will not move past it.
I was able to watch it on YouTube just fine.
May 10th, 2010 at 7:15 am
Congratulations…..It’s a sensation!!! Just wanted to show my appreciation…..
May 10th, 2010 at 7:35 am
Very, very good episode. 10 stars (out of 4) for Uncle Jay.
For anyone here who is actually a big mind watching news for small minds, I thought it might be enlightening to share this New York Times Editorial from someone who helped write the Arizona immigration bill (rather than someone who just heard about it on network TV, Internet, friends, etc and decided it was good/bad):
http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/29/opinion/29kobach.html
In addition, here is the text of the bill (it’s only 17 pages) for those interested enough to read it themselves (in other words, those who are running their mouth about the bill, and might want to know what they’re talking about.)

Best wishes.

Best Uncle Jay ever. WTG Uncle Jay.
May 10th, 2010 at 8:16 am
A most excellent explanation of immigration, but we need to close out boards without any hesitation! (America breeds enough drug crime of our own.)
May 10th, 2010 at 8:31 am
Salvation to the information of this unclejay show
May 10th, 2010 at 9:16 am
While I found this episode admirably humorous, I have to disagree with the solution of “talk and hug” it out. A friend in Arizona has been informing a group of us about the murders, kidnappings and human trafficking, vandalizing, harassment, and other crimes plaguing Arizona on account of the drug cartel from Mexico. This is not something to reconcile – it needs to be stopped.
May 10th, 2010 at 9:43 am
Kudos Uncle Jay! This was on my Top 10 Uncle Jay shows.
May 10th, 2010 at 9:46 am
Ala George Carlin – congratulation!
Outstanding humorization of our painful situation.
May 10th, 2010 at 10:51 am
Uncle Jay, become famous… be on the O’Reilly Factor. O’REILLY LOVES WORD-PLAY. Your commentary is priceless and should be spread among the millions of viewers he has. HIS AUDIENCE WOULD LOVE YOUR HUMOR! This one was totally PRICELESS! Yes, I agree it’s one of your BEST!
May 10th, 2010 at 11:05 am
Hey Uncle, I got a great idea, let’s adopt the same immigration laws that Mexico has, you know, show me your papers and if you don’t have them, you go to jail instead of, oh, here’s free food, medical and education for your kids.
Can you imagine telling a Mexican Federal Police officer you want your Miranda Rights and an English speaking officer…ouch!
May 10th, 2010 at 11:26 am
While it is true that I do not agree with illegal immigration I think if they found there way here should we completely kick them out specially if there working and have no criminal history in their country or ours. I believe as an American I get fist dibs on a job no matter what. But I can’t say I wouldn’t do the same they are doing if desperate enough. As far as the criminal element, drug cartels, kidnappings murders, well if you wanted to terrorize people what else would you call it. Yet our government ain’t doing nothing about it. And they can but they won’t. The powers that be probably profit off of the way thing are and may even perpetuated. It sad we can’t clean up next door but we can prance around the world with big guns.
May 10th, 2010 at 11:56 am
With elation, a standing ovation!!!
May 10th, 2010 at 11:58 am
Great piece, Unkl Jay!
Very cleaver and well done, as always.
May 10th, 2010 at 12:04 pm
Dr. Suess couldn’t have said it better. You have my undying admiration!
May 10th, 2010 at 12:08 pm
Loved it. Today’s was pure genius.
May 10th, 2010 at 1:08 pm
Hi Oncle J
An illustration of inspirational ill lit eration. WOWWW!!
May 10th, 2010 at 1:22 pm
I’m having commiseration with how hard it must have been to do that conversation. That was GENIUS!!!
May 10th, 2010 at 1:24 pm
I agree – this week’s episode was brilliant! However – one question: What happened to the discussion regarding Lady GaGa?
May 10th, 2010 at 2:02 pm
Awesome Uncle Jay!
May 10th, 2010 at 2:31 pm
It caused too many heads’ explodation.
May 10th, 2010 at 2:32 pm
Heh… “your comment is awaiting moderation”.
May 10th, 2010 at 2:50 pm
Wow!!! Every week I think “He can’t top this one” – and today you did… A big congratulATION to you!!
May 10th, 2010 at 4:21 pm
Dear Uncle Jay,
I like that name, I was called Jay as a younster, and am an Uncle now.
I liked you compliation of exclamations, it was the best of you series. You should run for VP, as you are more verbose than Ex VP, Spiro.
May 10th, 2010 at 4:24 pm
Uncle Jay, you are a singular sensation!
May 10th, 2010 at 4:59 pm
A wonderful, brilliant, in fact, example of rhyming, but not a solution to the ILLEGAL immigration problem.
May 10th, 2010 at 6:18 pm
Great episode Uncle Jay –
I can understand why people want to come to America BUT they have to do it LEGALLY and we must prevent those who cross our borders illegally protecting not only our southern border but the northern border as well.
May 10th, 2010 at 10:33 pm
Allow me to offer my ovation!
May 11th, 2010 at 7:42 am
Not sure if there is anything else I can add to what has already been spoken here on the comments. Nice job, Uncle Jay!
May 11th, 2010 at 8:53 am
It met my usual expectation. I think he might be using this latest explanation for a bit of exploitation.
May 11th, 2010 at 9:32 am
In my estimation, the hesitation to enforce legislation is an abomination. Now that someone with the courage to enforce the legislation has arrived, it is time for incarceration and deportation to begin without hesitation which has always been my expectation.
May 11th, 2010 at 12:29 pm
Thx Uncle Jaytion.
what a mouthful. your dictionary is smoking.
May 11th, 2010 at 11:02 pm
OF COURSE drug cartels and kidnappings and murders have to end BUT you CANT just blame it all on illegal immigrants, and admit it what they are doing is just going based on the common indigenous looks (racial profiling)and anyways all they are worrying about is the LATINO AND HISPANICS, but you have to realize that there are illegal immigrants who are asians,along with europeans as well.
May 12th, 2010 at 6:19 am
Dear uncle jay,
Applause and standing ovations are in order! I hope you prosper greatly and feel good about the fact that you have made a lot of people happy!
May 12th, 2010 at 10:32 am
What part of “illegal” do the talking heads on this issue not understand? The really interesting thing I’ve noticed is that most of the “protesters” come from places that don’t have an illegal immigration problem. I’ve yet to meet anyone here in Arizona (where we deal with this problem on a DAILY basis) who is opposed to this law.
I used to live in South Florida. Twenty years ago, a very popular t-shirt read, “Will the last American to leave Miami, please take the flag?” I wonder if he or she did…
May 12th, 2010 at 12:38 pm
Maybe Uncle Jay should do a dissertation on ILLEGAL.
If the Federal Government was doing it’s job, AZ wouldn’t need this law.
May 12th, 2010 at 2:49 pm
Uncle Jay has little to fear. None of the illegals (in AZ or anywhere else) have a chance of taking away Uncle Jay’s job.
For those who have lost jobs to illegals, it is an abomination which calls for repatriation.
May 12th, 2010 at 3:34 pm
my exaltation Ovation from Germany
one of best Unclejay episode ever !
May 13th, 2010 at 1:07 am
Constitation? Is that like edjamacation?
Are you related to Dr. Seuss?
May 15th, 2010 at 9:10 pm
This is the 1st time that I’m using this website. Thank you for making it available to us.
May 16th, 2010 at 12:20 pm
The narration avoids explanation that immigration without documentation creates vocations without authorization and leads to alienation of citizens on unpaid vacations and gives Americans constipation.
May 17th, 2010 at 10:33 pm
Dr. Seuss is proud!
May 19th, 2010 at 11:02 am
Uncle Jay — great up until the summation which should include deportation without hesitation. If allowed to stay, as you infer, they should not be eligible for any gub’ment funded benefits until they properly become citizens, such as food stamps, medicare, free healthcare, free college education and, of course, subsidized Government Motors cars!
May 24th, 2010 at 3:02 pm
Uncle Jay,
Thank you for your time and talents. I have enjoyed and looked forward to every Monday morning…sometimes waiting Sunday nights to get the News! My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
The comments below are from our homeroom 7th grade students:
Austin: Thanks for making the news as funny as Jay Leno but sort of funnier to me!
Thomas: Thanks for the awesone year with tons of laughs for all in the class!!!
Hailey:Thank you so much for making the videos. It made Monday Ac. lab fun. I hope you
continue making the videos!
Alec: I have had such a fun year watching your show. Your show is funny, important, and cool. My favorite part of your show is when you mouth the word of the day instead of saying it. It was always worth my day watching your show. Thanks.
June 14th, 2010 at 9:00 pm
Didn’t Uncle Jay do a video like this not too long ago? I didn’t like that one, either. I love ya, Uncle Jay, but I don’t like these “-ation” videos. Sorry.
July 17th, 2010 at 3:03 pm
In anticipation of outcries of subjugation, opposers of AZ SB 1370 have failed to understand the Arizona voters’ indignation over Presidential and Congressional constipation regarding immigration. Time either to poop or get off the pot Washington!
