MORE AND MORE STATES FOLLOW ARIZONA TOUGH STANCE ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION


Pardon the delay again.  I spent the better part of yesterday with my son at the gun range and today doing household chores.  Not to mention the new 60” LED TV hanging on the wall.  So, I’ve been pre-occupied, but we’ll be back on a regular schedule after the 12th.    

Alabama is the latest of several states to pass a new and tough immigration law, sending one more signal to Barack Obama that they are sick and tired, not only of the way his Administration is handling the crisis, but also of dealing with the growing monetary and social costs of handling illegal immigrants. 
"It is clearly unconstitutional. It's mean-spirited, racist, and we think a court will enjoin it," said Mary Bauer, legal director for the Southern Poverty Law Center.

COMMENTS:
I do not know how these radical left wingers get away with this kind of bull.  Anytime I get pulled over, I’m going to be asked for my driver’s license.  I get asked for that and my social security number just about every time I buy a head of lettuce.  At least once a year, I have to show proof of citizenship for something.  And, if I think someone is here illegally, I want them identified and tossed out on their ears.  If the left-wingers don’t like it, they should pack their bags and move to a country where they can be a supreme ruler, like Obama. 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q.  I see Gingrich’s staff is deserting him.  Will he survive?  (Adolfo ~ San Jose, CA)
A.  I hope not.  I liked the guy until he showed his true colors.  I think he is a genuine American who loves his country, but he’s dead wrong on Health Care and he’s dead wrong on Paul Ryan’s plan to reduce the deficit.  All of the back peddling and explaining won’t change what he said.  If he gets the nomination, however, I will support him.  Hell, I’d support Charlie Sheen for President if he could beat Barack Obama!

Q.  The huge forest fires in Arizona appear to be worse because of environmental laws against logging and thinning forests in a controlled manner.  Isn’t this a case of going too far with the EPA mentality?  (Chico ~ Phoenix, AZ)
A.  Yes.  Don’t get me wrong.  We need to be more environmentally conscious than we were 30 years ago.  I think we have made significant progress in our landfills, our air quality in major cities, and in protecting our clean water supplies.  But, everything we do needs to have a balance to it and the EPA has tilted the scale too far in many cases.  I think when they start telling you how many toilet tissue sheets to use at one sitting, they are way out of line. 

Q.  I hear the Fairness Doctrine is on its way out?  I thought it was getting tougher.  (Clarice ~ Anderson, IN)
A.  The FCC is in the process of phasing it out.  There are several proposals floating around for accomplishing the same intent, and one of them could get approved.  The original concept was good, I think, but the methodology was flawed and allowed political parties to use the doctrine against each other.  Additionally, I don’t see how it is fair to require a broadcasting company to balance its content minute for minute.  Besides, if it was enforced according to its strict interpretation, think of all the face time on TV that Obama grabs…unbalanced.
