What's that? 500 illegals just crossed the border? Well, don't just sit around. Get them some beer and sign 'em up for a federal program.

About a week ago, Ridge was here in AZ on a border tour with our AZ politicians. He sang a different tune then ... really!

For some reason, that man gives me a really creepy feeling from the time he was appointed. I can't define the feeling I had, except that he just semed creepy.

As the Japanese would say with respect to opened and embarrassing zippers, "The window of society is open" (shakai no mado wa aite imasu). I've always liked that one. (again, not a Ridge quote here).
