Labor Sec: O Will Take ´big and bold, Aggressive Exec Action´ on Immigration

Labor Secretary Thomas Perez said President Barack Obama will take “aggressive executive action” on immigration, which Perez said will bring about more “shared prosperity.” Addressing the National Press Club this week, Perez, who is reportedly on the short list to be Obama´s next attorney general, said the country needed to “fix our broken immigration system” with comprehensive amnesty legislation that is “big and bold” to ensure that there is “shared prosperity,” which he said is a goal of his Labor Department. Though the Congressional Budget Office determined that comprehensive amnesty legislation would lower the wages of American workers, Labor Secretary... [snip]

Matt Lewis shames the press for laughing at Bristol Palins physical assault
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3218910/posts
Apparently, the usual sober and fraught political commentary that often accompanies episodes of physical violence directed toward women disappears when the subject of that violence is a Palin. The political press had a hearty chuckle at the expense of the Palins when it first broke that the former first family of Alaska was involved in an alcohol-fueled brawl. The thrilla in Wasilla, some called it. One might, however, have expected the laughter to die down after local police released audio of Bristol Palin who described through hysterical tears how she had been assaulted, dragged through the grass, and robbed. It... [snip]

“Why such thuggish hatred?”
[yesterday] Van Jones confession r. Palin: “We were scared!”
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3218318/posts
My view:
The truth is that the D.isease Party was scared to death of Sarah Palin. So they DE-volved into a ‘hen-pecking’ party. When the hens see blood, they get into a pecking frenzy until the bloody hen is killed.
The mugging and jeers are the inevitable result of people allowed to turn into wild beasts. This is what “Lord of the Flies” is all about.
[I uh, go on some more and branch out at this point. I wouldn’t blame you if you scroll on past.]
Leftists have ‘checked out’. They wage war against civilization and embrace barbarians such as Islam, hate-mongering pseudo-Christians [black liberation theology], leftist-anarchists, and union thugs. They also stir up discord. They encourage divorce and pit poor against rich, animal lovers against humanitarians, sexual reprobates and drug abusers against Christianity, women against men, children against parents, and working women against house keepers.
Global warming is also a method of ‘divide and conquer’ — those who trust grant-funded research and those who point out the fraudulence of it along with the end game: ‘more taxes and less prosperity’.
All of this resulted in the religion of leftist secularism: propserity is ‘evil’, Christianity is ‘evil’, masculinity is ‘evil’, and freedom is ‘dangerous’. All of Western Civilization’s underpinnings have eroded. And as our economy reflected this, so did China’s economy eclipse us.
Sarah Palin cut through leftist divisiveness. She united and inspired people, a breath of fresh air. No one was surprised — she was [after all] overwhelmingly popular as Alaska’s governer. She posed a threat. So the D.isease Party did the only thing it understands — D.estruction and D.iscord.

Fast and Furious: Family of Slain Border Patrol Agent “Baffled”

Late Wednesday evening the Department of Justice turned over a list, or Vaughn Index, of Operation Fast and Furious documents being held from the American people and Congress under President Obama’s assertion of executive privilege. The list was turned over after a long legal battle with government watchdog Judicial Watch. Yesterday in an initial review of the list by Judicial Watch, it was revealed Attorney General Eric Holder was involved in crafting talking points for the cover-up of the operation from within DOJ and that President Obama asserted executive privilege over emails between Holder, his wife and his mother.

That is to say, you DO NOT turn to the government for help when the government is the cause of the problem... [snip]

She touted Udalls Senate record in her speech, and called him a fifth-generation Coloradan. Mark understands what makes this state special, she said. The only problem?
