In legislative news, I see the Senate is pushing for better care of detained illegal aliens. Here's the rub on this. Our servicemen are coming home from Iraq to squalor in some of their barracks. http://towncriernews.blogspot.com/2008/04/shame.html

Immigration detention centers, according to their website is 'state of the art'.

In any case, a fence would be cheaper, more humane and might actually accomplish something. But no, Menendez, and his co sponsors have to do some pandering instead of securing the country.

The sentence will probably be overturned at the state level. I can’t wait to see how the ACLU—or their fellow travelers on the bar—will rationalize the killings among a victim group they so often exploit for political gain.

They should set up imigration checkpoints for the exiting of Gloria Estaphan’s new tour’s shows. They might just find a few. Though that might start an internet rumor and hurt ticket sales.
