The local Fox affiliate in the Twin Cities finally confirms what the local papers didn’t seem to want to mention about the horrible school bus accident that killed four children. It didn’t have to happen:

Authorities have confirmed that the the driver of the van that struck the school bus that killed 4 students on Tuesday is an illegal alien.

Officials at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement are checking to see where she came from and how long she’s been in Minnesota. FOX 9 has also learned that the name she gave to police, Alainiss Morales, is an alias.

23-year-old Alainiss N. Morales was taken into custody on suspicion of criminal vehicular operation. She was arrested by the State Patrol Thursday afternoon and is being held in Lyon County Jail. County Attorney Rick Maes told the Marshall Independent charges could come later Thursday or Friday…The van was driven by Alianiss N. Morales, 23, of Minneota. The Fox 9 Investigator found

O-M-G!!! Four more children dead because of el Presidente Jorge and congress. And many FReepers want the rest of us to vote for McShamnesty.

[metmom]

Another one.

Terrific.

[randog]

What did “Morales’s” employer know about her illegal status and when did the employer know it?

Que?

Causing fatal accidents American drivers aren’t willing to. We really need comprehensive immigration reform, yeah right! It’s called enforcing the laws we have now and building the fence.

[kittymyrib]

The blood of these children, and thousands more of our citizens who have been murdered on our highways and homes by illegal marauders, is on the hands of our government officials from Jorge Bush, to MeCain/Kennedy et al, mayors and judges, and most of all employers of these invaders, who enable this onslaught on our society and our safety.
The next shock will be when our terrorist enemies launch their next attacks on several cities at once, having come in over our southern border with their phony Mexican passports and names. It is utterly predictable, and we will know who to blame.

Check out this video report from last night. Note the part about the toxicology results....

If she’s lucky, Hillary or Obama will have her on a path to citizenship before the trial.

Morales pleaded guilty in Chippewa County in 2006 to driving without a valid license.

How the Left will spin it: "This is what happens when undocumented immigrants aren't allowed to have driver's licenses."

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list.

Update.

Thanks George Bush

A "new America". One where all peoples have the right to be an American - as long as they understand spanish.

THE "NEW AMERICAN"..........<

We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.

Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.

For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.

Our future cannot be separated from the future of Latin America.

As I speak, we are celebrating the success of democracy in Mexico.

George Bush from a campaign speech in Miami, August 2000.

You can read the speech here.

Here is an excerpt of a good critique of that speech:

In equating our intimate historic bonds to our mother country and to Canada with our ties to Mexico, W. shows a staggering ignorance of the civilizational facts of life. The reason we are so close to Britain and Canada is that we share with them a common historical culture, language, literature, and legal system, as well as similar standards of behavior, expectations of public officials, and so on.

None of the news reports I have heard or read or viewed have mentioned the alien aspect. What a “surprise”!

[kittymyrib]

“What did “Morales’s” employer know about her illegal status and when did the employer know it?”

That would be the Jenny-O turkey processor in MN, as reported a couple of days ago when the identity of this illegal murderer became known. I will never buy their products again. They are enablers to this lawlessness.

Link won’t work for me. What’s it say?

More children die thanks to Jorge and his open border policy.

I hope the parents sue.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

I suppose we are to never let them out of the house? I am not opposed to homeschooling but these illegals are everywhere. They are affecting EVERY facet of American life not just the schools.

Until we get together and put a stop to it ourselves it will get worse.

[hondo1951]

McAmnesty will allow this to continue. These are just poor people looking for the American dream don’t you know.

[metmom]

Read more carefully. It’s an update for those following the situation. I put it in the ping.
