Borderland (must-see Mexico border documentary - online)
Dick is right. "Every American should see this." It is real and it is striking. In some places it stands 18 feet tall and looks like the gates of Mordor. In other places, it is barely 10 feet tall and looks like it was put together with a stapler. It runs from the Colorado River directly into the Pacific. It is big, intense and intimidating. And it is unfinished. Gaping holes are everywhere. Physically it’s confusing. Politically it’s puzzling. Ideologically it’s complicated. But for Dick and Ron, who both live within a few miles of the border, defending it is...

Homeland Security Blows 1.3 Billion Building A Fence That Doesn’t Exist
The Department of Homeland Security Reports that it has nothing to show for spending 1.3 Billion during the last five years to build a fence to keep out illegal aliens, the fence along our border with Mexico doesn't exist and the money is gone. Mark Borkowski, executive director of DHS's Secure Border Initiative, told a hearing of the House Subcommittee on Management, Investigations and Oversight that the department will likely scale back its plans to install sensors, cameras and radar towers along the Southwest border. Borkowski's admission came after withering testimony from Randolph Hite of the Government Accountability Office on the...

Wasilla Paper Warns Palin Author of Deadly Force Law (Ref: Creepy author Joe McGinniss)
In an editorial posted on its website Sunday night, Sarah's Palin's hometown newspaper in Wasilla, Alaska, warned author and journalist Joe McGinniss (who has moved next door to Palin as he conducts research for a book on the former governor) about a state law that allows the use of deadly force to defend one's property. The editorial, titled "Wasilla fence fascinating for national media outlets," paints a disparaging portrait both of McGinniss' work and the national media's coverage of his controversial decision to take up temporary residence so close to Palin. Its concluding sentence reads, "Finally, those who are fond...

Obama's Border Policy on Desk Support
President Barack H. Obama (D, Trier Tavern Club) has announced his plan to secure the United States’ southern border: he will direct up to 1200 troops to report there to provide desk support for the red tape that chokes our border agents, and spend at least $500 million more on unspecified projects. The intent is of course to give the impression that this President gets it at last… that he understands the public outcry for border security, and is making a real effort in sending troops and spending money. But how many Americans are naïve enough to believe this line,...

Border Charade
Security: After letting Mexico's president trash Arizona's immigration law and his immigration enforcement chief say he won't enforce it, the president wants to send a token National Guard contingent to the border. There's something disingenuous about the president's plan to deploy 1,200 National Guard troops to the Arizona border to help the Border Patrol catch illegal aliens. His director of immigration and customs enforcement, John Morton, has said he might not enforce immigration crimes reported by Arizona officials, though the state's new law merely copies federal law. Morton is director of ICE, not chief justice of the Supreme Court. He...

"this is a nightmare for my family" - Sarah palin
Sarah Palin on with Glenn Beck this morning talked about author Joe McGinniss moving in next door to observe her and her family while writing a book about her. Glenn described him as a voyeur, able to look into Piper's bedroom! "This is harassment. Stalking and harassment. Leave people's families alone!" It's tantamount to stalking, and Sarah says they're building a 14-foot high fence between them. Kim Priestap has the details and the video of Beck talking about it yesterday during his show. Back to this morning's conversation, Sarah told Glenn and his listeners: "I feel more protective than ever...
