Quote of the Day
“For a guy who’s got nothing but adoring press for seven years, and is unknown to 70 percent of the public, it’s not easy to win if you’re a single-issue candidate. Our feeling is, bring him on.” -- Democratic State Chairman Joseph Cryan, on Republican Chris Christie, who is resigning as U.S. Attorney to run for Governor.

Honest question.......
I am totally against illegals from anywhere. The problem I have is - how does a cop know exactly who is illegal and who is not? Of course, a latino male 5'6". dark hair, boots, worn jeans and a baseball hat, standing alongside 8 or 9 thousand other identicals is surely a good prospect. BUT, what about the other illegals who have better education, better connections, better possibilities...? BOTH are just as wrong. Including how many bartenders at pubs? bakers at bakeries, butchers at butcher shops, intellectuals with advanced degrees (albeit no papers) etc. It's not only Santa Anna's revenge, it's the whole idea of allowing illegals in and not just sweeping the streets. Dress Gonzo up as pictured above and see if 287G doesn't cause major problems. FORGET 287G and think 1040 or 1099. If they have no job, they will seek their fortune elsewhere. (kidding - perhaps) Wouldn't it be great to send a couple of million of Spanish speaking illegals to Cuba? Just to return the favor to fidel of his Mariellito boatlift!
