Whistleblowers

Great take by Debbie Schlussel on the controversy in Utah , which involves the public disclosure of the identities of 1,300 illegal aliens living in the state. http://www.debbieschlussel.com/24821/snooping-utah-state-workers-do-immigration-job-feds-wont-do/ I tend to agree with her assessment, especially this part: And that’s the thing … Continue reading

Political Exploitation

The Mounting Cost Of Complacency

From our good friends at the Federation for American Immigration Reform, we finally have a rough estimate of how much, cumulatively speaking, the continued presence of illegal aliens in this country costs the American taxpayer. http://phoenix.bizjournals.com/phoenix/stories/2010/07/05/daily30.html Hat tip: Dr. Carol … Continue reading

Rhetorical Overkill
