At your own risk

The head of Immigrations and Customs (Non)Enforcement, John Morton announced a crackdown on illegal immigrants … in Illinois. On the Arizona law, Morton had the following to say: Echoing comments by President Barack Obama and others in the administration, Morton said that Arizona's new law targeting illegal immigration is not "good government." The law makes […]

Whose safety is more important?

Today, two big hypocrites held a joint press conference at the White House. President Barack Obama and Mexican President Felipe Calderon took the opportunity to come together in a spirit of anti-Americanism to blast Arizona’s new immigration law. We don’t need to go into the fact that Mexico treats illegal immigrants in its country far […]

What the First Amendment means

Cass Sunstein, a leftist professor and President Obama’s regulatory czar, thinks that government should require bloggers like me to link to opposing viewpoints. Just out of curiosity, where the h-e-double-hockeysticks does some government bureaucrat get off thinking that he can force me to promote opposing views?

Legal malpractice

I must confess that I’ve been outraged by the Obamacare law, but I haven’t read it. It’s well over 2,000 pages and I have something roughly resembling a life, so I haven’t read it and I don’t plan on reading it. The controversial Arizona immigration law is 19 pages long and I have read the […]

State of denial

Last month Franklin Graham was disinvited from the National Prayer Day breakfast at the Pentagon after some “raised concerns” over Graham’s comments that Islam was an “evil” and “wicked” religion. Well, how would one describe this: Yes, what you have there is a member of the Muslim Students Association advocating for genocide of the Jews. […]
