Sanctuary Sanctions - IBD - Investors.com
"The administration said its lawsuit against Arizona was all about the pre-eminence of federal law over state.
Now they say city laws pre-empt federal when it comes to sanctuary for illegals.
Double standard, anyone?"

Karl Rove: My Biggest Mistake in the White House - WSJ.com
"At the time, we in the Bush White House discussed responding but decided not to relitigate the past.
That was wrong and my mistake: I should have insisted to the president that this was a dagger aimed at his administration's heart.
What Democrats started seven years ago left us less united as a nation to confront foreign challenges and overcome America's enemies."

Anniversary of a Castroite Massacre
Townhall - Humberto Fontova - Anniversary of a Castroite Massacre
"A few miles into the turbulent sea, 30-year-old Maria Garcia felt someone tugging her sleeve. She looked down and it was her 10-year-old son, Juan. 'Mami, look!' and he pointed behind them toward shore. 'What's those lights?'
'Looks like a boat following us, son,' she stuttered while stroking his hair. 'Calm down, mi hijo (my son). Try to sleep. When you wake up, we'll be with our cousins in a free country. Don't worry.' In fact, Maria suspected the lights belonged to Castro patrol boats coming out to intercept them."

Irish Examiner USA: Why Should Anybody Work?
Irish Examiner USA: Why Should Anybody Work?
"I later learned that the couple had come out of a Brooklyn shelter and were not only getting subsidized housing but also vouchers for furniture; food stamps; free health care from Medicaid, and, of course, welfare. They appeared to be in good health and when I visited their neighbors, I had a chance to meet the young man (who's white) and appeared to be in his early 20s. He complained about how bad the job situation was. 'Man, I can't find work anywhere,' he said.
I was sorely tempted to ask why he didn't apply at one of the local stores that had a 'Help Wanted' sign in the window but that would have been a merely rhetorical question. Minimum-wage jobs can't compete with a full-service welfare system that sucks people into dependency."

I found it interesting that even Fox News turned her down when she made the documentary. Just goes to show you how political things get at Fox News."

YOU DON’T SAY: Big Runaway Toyota Surprise: Drivers, Not Electronics, at Fault.

“The results suggest that some drivers who said their Toyota and Lexus vehicles surged out of control were mistakenly flooring the accelerator when they intended to jam on the brakes…”
In the words of P.J. O’Rourke: “Yes, the dumb buggers stepped on the gas instead of the brake.”
Just like with the identical claims about the Audi 5000, which O’Rourke was writing about.
So who does Toyota sue to get its reputation back?
UPDATE: Tom Maguire notes that we’re all supposed to have moved on to hating BP now anyway. Good point."
