Until recently I imagine that most of the country, much like myself, knew little or nothing about Humberto Leal Garcia, the illegal immigrant* who became a vicious rapist and murderer back in 1994. At any given moment there are probably thousands of animals locked up in our nation’s penitentiaries for crimes similar to Humberto’s, and [...]

Tragedy in Arizona
This is what they were talking about when they coined the term ‘man-caused-disaster.’ It wasn’t an act of war. It wasn’t the result of political extremism. It wasn’t a racist reaction to the country’s first (half) black President. It wasn’t a statement on illegal immigration nor Arizona’s efforts to combat same. It was one asshole [...]
Welcome to the new world order
Think the conspiracy theorists are completely out of touch? Not on this one. Court allows countries to join challenge to Arizona Law In a new twist in the fight over Arizona’s immigration law, Republican Gov. Jan Brewer on Tuesday asked a federal court to disallow foreign governments from joining the U.S. Department of Justice lawsuit to [...]
Peace Through Strength
Seems quite reasonable to me. A Platform for Restoring ‘Peace Through Strength’ In a world characterized by growing threats to freedom and the U.S. Constitution, America’s exceptional role, and indeed our country’s very existence, is at risk. We believe such times demand a robust, comprehensive national security posture appropriate to today’s threats, and tomorrow’s. Toward [...]
9th Circus declares lying, cheating, stealing “protected”
Pretty hard to believe. Military.com PASADENA, Calif. — A three-year-old federal law that makes it a crime to falsely claim to have received a medal from the U.S. military is unconstitutional, an appeals court panel in California ruled Tuesday. The decision involves the case of Xavier Alvarez of Pomona, Calif., a water district board member [...]
Has anyone told them?
It’s not the military’s policy. RIVERSIDE, Calif. — Lawyers for a gay rights group asked a federal judge Friday to impose an injunction halting what they called the military’s unconstitutional “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. Congress created the bill, President B.J. Clinton signed it into law. Don’t blame the military for U. S. Law.
Sometimes there is justice
Lynne Stewart is off to the big house for ten long years… Judge nails the bitch to the wall for demonstrating “lack of remorse.” Awesome. U.S. District Judge John Koeltl sentenced Stewart, 70, today in New York. A federal appeals court in November ruled that his first sentence didn’t reflect the seriousness of her actions. [...]
Race: American
I just filled out my 2010 census form. I didn’t hesitate to check “Some other race” in response to question 9, and write in “American”. I invite every American to do the same, regardless of ancestry. Kudos to Michelle Malkin and Theodore Roosevelt.
Most extensive…
Somehow I doubt it, but I’d say it’s probably a good start. Corruption lands ex-Louisiana congressman 13 years ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Prosecutors called a former Louisiana congressman’s corruption the most extensive in the history of Congress. His punishment delivered a similar message. William Jefferson, who famously hid $90,000 cash in his freezer, was sentenced Friday [...]
