Deportations:
Arrogant Mexicans fib, 'claim victory'
The Mexican government described as a
victory Tuesday's suspension of a U.S. program to deport migrants
far from where they crossed the border, and said Mexico's diplomatic
protests were responsible for ending the program. -- Santiago
Creel announced the suspension of the program as a "special
and breaking piece of news," even though U.S. officials
had confirmed a week ago that it would be ending. |

Making
Voting Easy, For Illegals
A new law signed by California Gov. Gray
Davis (D.) will make it easier for illegal aliens to vote in
the state. SB 60 gives driver's licenses to illegal aliens residing
in the state and under the federal "motor voter" law
they can now register to vote more easily as well, though not
without breaking the law. |

Something
amiss at the DHS
Morale in the Department of Homeland Security
is on the decline. Many are seeking transfers out. One of the
main reasons cited is the continuing influence of "Clintonistas"
who work overtime to defeat any attempt to enforce laws against
illegal immigration. Bush still refuses to replace these holdovers,
leaving many to conclude that he agrees with them. |
