FRESNO -- Authorities have issued an Amber Alert for an 8-year-old Fresno girl who was apparently abducted from her front yard while playing with a friend. The California Highway Patrol says Elisa Cardenas was taken around 8:30 p.m. Monday...

...She was last seen wearing blue jeans and a light purple Winnie the Pooh sweat shirt. Fresno police say the suspect is described as a male around 6-feet tall and in his 20s with a shaved head. He was wearing a white tank top and blue jean shorts and driving an older model, reddish brown Ford two-door pickup truck. The vehicle had a 6-inch white stripe on it.

Local news says she has been found safe- no word of where.

Perp is still at large.

Apparently, perp was unknown to the girl.

Yes, sadly, there is. Today was a lucky day -- this particular evil-doer did not succeed.

Now that the girl is okay, I pray the perp is found and punished.

“BARNEY FRANK VOTED AGAINST AMBER ALERT (400 Ayes -11 Nays)”

Wouldn’t want him to get any help for his victims when he decides to abduct a young boy for a weekend romp now would you?

23 of which were Democrats. Color me shocked.

Well, maybe they were really only objecting to the torture of the English language and spelling that was required to come up with the "backronym" in the title:

BILL TITLE: “Prosecutorial Remedies and Tools Against the Exploitation of Children Today Act of 2003” or “PROTECT Act”

PRTAECT =/= PROTECT

Geez. :)
