US Boots on Somolian Ground

Looks like we are now at war in yet another country.

Nevada Fats

Apparently, Senator Harry Reid wants millionaires to help pay down the debt/deficit.

Excuse me, Senator, but they aren’t the ones responsible for the debt. You (and most of Congress) are.

Besides, I’d think you just lost the support of some of your own with your call to alms.

Impeach Holder

There appears to be a case to exactly that.

I must say, I agree and it is long past time to do so.

In the fall of 2009, the Department of Justice (DOJ) developed a risky new strategy to combat gun trafficking along the Southwest Border.…The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) implemented that strategy using a reckless investigative technique that street agents call “gunwalking.” ATF’s Phoenix Field Division began allowing suspects to walk away with illegally purchased guns.

This shift in strategy was known and authorized at the highest levels of the Justice Department. Through both the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Arizona and “Main Justice,” headquarters in Washington, D.C., the Department closely monitored and supervised the activities of the ATF.
……
The Department of Justice has repeatedly and steadfastly denied that any guns were walked under Operation Fast and Furious. According to the narrowest possible interpretation, a gun is walked only when an ATF agent physically places an AK-47 into the hands of a straw purchaser and then lets that straw purchaser walk out of sight.

Bill To Freeze POTUS Power To Grant Amnesty

Go for it, Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas).

He said that under the new guidelines ICE agents could defer the deportations of “millions of deportable illegal and criminal immigrants.”

“The Obama administration cannot continue to pick and choose which laws it will enforce,” said Smith in a statement. “It is outrageous that they have put illegal immigrants and their liberal political base ahead of the American people.”

UPDATE: In-State Tuition Hijinks By SBE and Casa de MD

Word is that the State Board of Elections has allowed Casa de Maryland to take originals of petitions with signatures to copy them at Kinko’s.

And when organizers, to get this to referendum, ask to be present at Kinko’s – they are told no. By the State Board of Elections.

Now isn’t that just special and smacks of ill will towards everyone working according to the rules of obtaining voter signatures.

A 45 News article and video.

And we are now getting word that volunteers are being chased off of taxpayer paid, government/public property by police and MVA employees and even CASA de MD protesters. If you have a Facebook account, go to it and start reading.

History in the making.

It also sounds it is way past time for a complete regime change here in The Old Line State.

Eyes Over Arizona has a little more on this topic.

If you can help towards convincing the State Board of Elections to change their minds, here’s how:

Please email (over this weekend) Linda Lamone and Mary Wagner of the SBE, expressing your concerns about them handing over official documents to Casa de Maryland. Follow the email up with phone calls first thing Monday morning. We must flood their office, inboxes, and phone lines.

Phone: 410-269-2840 or 800-222-8683

Email: info@elections.state.md.us

Fax:
410-974-2019
410-974-5415
410-974-5126

Address: 151 West Street, suite 200, Annapolis

If you can drive down there and protest in person, please do so. We must demand that they conduct a proper handling of this PIA request by CASA. The chain of custody of the petition forms must not be violated.

They are handing over the only official, original copy of the petition forms to the opponent of the petition effort, while denying the petition sponsor the right to be present while CASA makes photocopies.

We need to spread the word: pass on to your email contact lists, blog about it, call in to radio shows about it, make online comment posts to articles about it, make posts on Facebook about it. ALL HANDS ON DECK!

UPDATE: And more from Hassan Giordano. Also, Ann Miller’s Examiner page.

Activist Judge Says Taxpayers Must Pay for Abortions

Really?

So how different is this from the POTUS and Congress saying we must pay for Healthscare or face fines and/or jail time?

Since when is it a Judge’s job to over-ride legislation from a state body and signed into law by its Governor?

There are real bad laws out there, Judge. Why not shut them down, too?

How Lose Tax Exempt Status

Ask Media Matters about that after they went public on the far left org’s mission to destroy FOX News.

Last night on The O’Reilly Factor, this was discussed thouroughly.

GatewayPundit has it here.

Yes, it sounds like Media Matters is dumb as a box of rocks.

Jon Stewart’s Opinion Isn’t Fact

Jon Stewart says those who watch Fox News are the “most consistently misinformed media viewers”

Sorry, dude. Incorrect. Try again.

And try to be funny this time.

La Raza Funding Skyrockets

Why? Obama hired its VP.

Paying for future votes, I imagine.

The Lone Star State Versus EPA

It seems that Texas can’t catch a break from EPA decisions about their energy productions, jobs, air quality, natural gas, etc., etc., etc.

One would think someone is out to “get” Texas for some reason. Nah. Can’t be. Who would take their wrath out on an entire state? Anybody?

Seems Texas can’t get the support it needs – ever since, ever since, um, that … interview. Hhhmm?

Wow. Wasn’t there a problem getting federal disaster help to control wild fires not too long ago?

Gee. I hope I’m wrong. Just. Too many coincidences, you know?
