To all my deplorable friends. Tick tock. Tomorrow!!

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The 15-year-old girl whose marathon case of hiccups made international news earlier this year has apparently run away from home, police said Monday.

Check out this picture of SC Senator Graham and MA Senator Kennedy laughing together. Graham already got booed by his own delegation recently. He is acting like a Democrat on this illegal-immigration bill. This is an excerpt from a SC blog showing a picture that is not going to go over well in SC.

Key backers of the Senate immigration bill said yesterday they are willing to consider a compromise that would delay the guest-worker program and "amnesty" portions until the borders have been secured. The proposal was floated by Senate Judiciary Chairman Arlen Specter in an interview Monday with editors and reporters at The Washington Times. "I think it's worth discussing," said Sen. John McCain, Arizona Republican. "Many of us have said we could work on border enforcement and, at the same time, work on other aspects that would take more time." Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, Massachusetts Democrat, said a delay will occur...

Washington, D.C. -- This evening, Senator Edward M. Kennedy released the following statement in response to President Bush's immigration address: "I commend the President for his courage in calling the nation's attention to the urgent need for comprehensive immigration reform that includes providing a path to citizenship for those who are here. We are at a critical moment in this debate and his leadership is essential as we fight to fix our broken system once and for all. In reality, this debate is much larger and far reaching than the issue of immigration alone. It is about our national security...

Video from David Gregory interview on Imus This Morning -- Is Gregory drunk or high?

Among Sen. Teddy Kennedy's many complaints about Samuel Alito, the one that caught the attention of Republicans today was his assertion that Alito is a racist. "In Alito's 15-years on the bench, Judge Alito has not written one single opinion on the merits in favor of a person of color who alleged race discrimination in the workplace." Moments later, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R.-Ala.) took Kennedy to task, leaving the liberal Massachusetts senator shaking his head. Sessions cited three cases in which Alito demonstrated that "all Americans receive equal protection of the laws, regardless of race." Among them: U.S. v. Kithcart:...

WASHINGTON — Vice President Dick Cheney arrived for work at the White House Monday afternoon after resting at his residence following an overnight visit to George Washington Hospital for shortness of breath. Cheney has a long history of heart problems and has a pacemaker but it appears that his complications are related to an anti-inflammatory medication he was taking for a foot problem. Cheney was seen Friday using a cane. He told workers at the Harley-Davidson factory he was touring in Kansas City, Mo., that he needed the assistance because "(Defense Secretary) Don Rumsfeld has been chewing on my ankles."...

In case you missed it, I hope you are going to be as angry as I am. As the DemocRATS are celebrating the 2000th death of an American hero in the war, they can barely contain themselves. But Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy has gone way over what anyone would consider decent behavior. On Tuesday, on the floor of the Senate, when discussing the 2000th death of a hero, he actually used the following words: "On this auspicious day . . ." I read it at mensnewsdaily.com Don’t think their[sp they're] celebrating? I give you Senator Edward (the Killer) Kennedy. He...

Apparently, many people missed the point of my column calling for the impeachment of President Bush for his dereliction of duty on the border and his non-enforcement of immigration laws. Some readers explained to me the impracticality of a successful impeachment. Others tried to tell me Vice President Dick Cheney would carry on the same misguided policies. Still others told me such a move would play into the hands of people like Hillary Rodham Clinton. So let me take another stab at this. I echoed Pat Buchanan's call for a bill of impeachment to be introduced by some courageous Republican...

Several of my recent threads / comments have related to a DUI arrest I recently had. I will not defend that. One of the more interesting subjects which came up when I was in jail was whether you can be arrested for "drunk in public" when you are on your own property. My position is that this should not be possible. I like to sit out on my front porch, have a drink or three, and study my shubbery. I am not driving or doing anything else which I consider to be wrong. The overwhelming consensus among my cell-mates is...
