Exactly what Tony says usually does happen. Usually a govt spokesperson or an office handles the press and gives them, if not interviews, press statements etc.
When Tony brought his guest coordinator staff person on, you could tell by the tone of her voice that the request for information, interview, or the time of day was being flatly rejected.
Tony made quite a lot of it during the rest of his show saying that apparently the higher ups in the BP were encouraging the officers to have a siesta, have a smoke, take a potty break, grab a beer....anything but do their job and arrest people at a higher number than what was done when the Minutemen were present.
And I think it was Monday of this week that a bill, signed by President Bush, starts paying medical care providers back for money spent caring for illegal aliens.
This is financially unsustainable. I just finished reading the book The Dark Side of Liberalism by Phil Kent and he outlined just why this sort of bill is going to literally destroy the country financially.
And American citizens cannot get free healthcare, but illegals can and do. Once again the responsible people are paying for the irresponsible people within our government.
