Wow, Kristol says that the reason Chris Shays' constitutants don't want an amnesty a/k/a path to citizenship is because they are wealthy and they like hiring cheap labor which they can get because they are illegals. Nice slur on folks from Connecticut.

I hate to say it, but there's probably some truth to the charge. I grew up in the NY suburbs (Westchester County) right next door to the area Shays represents and it would certainly have been true of the folks where I came from, Republican or Democrat. Other parts of Connecticut may be different, but the wealthy and influential folks from the NY border up through Fairfield, which is the folks Shays caters too, are truly "that type."

Good afternoon friends. This has already been a great day. I performed a solo at church this morning. Several people told me it was a real blessing. If it had only been one, it would have been worth it.

To my knowledge I have never met any one of you, but I feel like I have known many of you almost forever. I throughly enjoy the Sunday morning thread. Informative, combative, funny. Somebody should write a book about us. I'd buy it.

Every week I made an attempt to take a issue to its next step if not to its logical conclusion. Sometimes I nail it, other times all I get is a sore thumb

Immigration is the hot topic of the day, and rightly so. Here are two other things I found to be of particular interest as we look down the road a little ways.
1. In spite of all the bluster of the raid on Jefferson's office, at the end of the day leadership of both sides of the house had to admit the FBI acted with in its authority. This has tremendous repercussions as the CIA leak investigations begin to focus on Congresscritters. Stay tuned...
2. A California appeals court in reversing a lower court ruling gave legal status to bloggers as journalists worthy of First Amendment protections. Regardless of the eventual outcome of the case, this this recognition will not go over well with the MSM. (You know that Dan Rather thing about filters and fact checkers.)

OK. Done with my weekly attempt to be relevant (maybe). Time to do my imitation of a melon. You know, honeydew this and honeydew that...

I had a Favorite aunt that lived on Riverside Drive in Fairfield,Ct for at least 50 years, and she was not Rich and she was not snooty like that. Her Husband worked for the Telephone Company or something like that and she came home with from he Hospital with New Mothers and stayed the first 6 weeks and trained these new Moms in he Care of their Precious babies. I think the Neighborhood may have changed, but I think Kristol is doing what the Dems do, he is accusing Seays and his district of what he really does himself. He strikes me as being a blue blood wannabe, and acts the part. I am certainly no Seays fan,but he knows where his bread is buttered at long last.
