Oh the midnight, need a searchlight...Dan from Searchlight Crusade throws it up two-point style.  Point one: illegal immigration. Cheap labor is not always beneficial.  Point two: the near future for real estate.  Made me glad we own our home.

It’s not for you anyway, cuz this is for the Raza...Digger from Digger’s Realm digs into the immigration issue as well.  Are we really ready to say “Yeah, to hell with the laws, we need cheap lettuce?”

It’s a felony, so come on baby, What you gonna do...Eric at Classical Values is also on the immigration tip and asks if it’s smart to make 12 million felons in one fell swoop.  Probably not.  He also makes it clear that making 12 million new citizens isn’t the answer either.

Saved in the nick of time...At The World According to Nick, Nick rebuts the idea of white “privilege.” I’m white, when do I get to see some of it?  Oh yeah...Nick said it’s not there.  You mean I have to work hard?

Jane says...I’m done with Sergio...This is Jane from Armies of Liberation with an article on politics in Yemen and how the impossible is possible.  (Yes, I realize the song lyric has little to do with anything, but I simply can’t resist using it when her name is Jane.  Sue me.)

Me and you and a Connecticut Jew...think how much more fun that song would have been that way.  Anyhoo, Gary at Ex-Donkey Blog brings us Barack Obama endorsing Joe Lieberman for re-election.  At this point I think my fair state would re-elect Joe if he actually ate a Christian baby live on Newschannel 8 While Ann Nyberg mopped his chin with pages from the New Testament. 

My apologies to people of Christian and Jewish faiths there on that previous one.  It’s not an insult to you, I’m just sayin’, Ole Joe be popular and whatnot.

Moving on.

You’re a paranoid picture, you’re a photograph...if you’re a member of the “netroots.” Good Lord what a pretentious and inaccurate moniker. Mark Coffey also tackles the Obama/Lieberman friendship over at Decision ‘08 and posits that the KosKidz will turn on Barack faster than Jack Bauer could turn a Middle Eastern terrorist against his own beliefs.

Pictures came and broke your heart...Bloodspite is bemoaning the days of yore, pre-700 channels via satellite or cable and literally everything via the Internet.  I don’t think I agree, but I do understand the frustration sometimes.  What you have to do is work harder to be your own filter now, and parents of course must be a filter for their children.  More material and more access to that material means more work for the filters.  That’s progress for you I guess.

The corners is the hot spot, full of mad criminals...and Heartless Libertarian has a questionnaire for those mad criminals who would represent us in Congress.  Good questions, one every wannabe politician should have to answer.

Your own personal Jesus...Don Surber looks at why Bridgeport High School in Harrison County, West Virginia has had a reproduction of a painting of Jesus hanging in the school for more than 40 years.  Proponents say it’s secular.  Don asks “Do I want a Secular Jesus?”

Chinese Democracy...OK, I was going to make a Guns N’ Roses joke here, but you know what?  We’re going to see ACTUAL Chinese democracy before we see the GNR album called Chinese Democracy, so on to Cody’s post at legal redux about the latest Chinese affront to free expression.  Why is the PRC government so threatened by people who basically just want nothing more than to meditate and do good things for their fellow man?

You’re trapped now with spiritual law...or are you?  Dean Esmay urges research, understanding and learning who and what we are discussing when we say things like “Islam is___” or “Muslims believe that ____.” Probably not bad advice when talking about what is to most of us a completely foreign culture.

On the other hand.

Beneath the lies of this prophecy, there’s a world I have not recognized...Pigilito says modern Islam contravenes the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.  Seems fairly cut and dried.

You can close your eyes, I will take care of you...nice to hear from a loved one, but do we want Uncle Sam saying it?  Barry, aka “unpronounceable nickname that I see every day in my RSS reader”, goes two-for-two and says no and no.

Clock makes a fool of history, yesterday’s too long ago...Dave at Respectful Insolence (I wish my blog had half as cool a name!) is not pleased with the state of science in Arkansas classrooms.  I’ll never understand the willful ignoring of provable facts and data. Read the comments, it’s not just Arkansas either.

Spit in your eye, I will defy...John at Castle Argghhh! says easier said than done, armchair quarterbacks.  Lot of folks gave Jill Carroll a lot of grief for her pro-terrorist statements which of course we now know were made under threat.  I’d say a lot of things to literally save my neck.  What would you say to make sure you got to see your family again?

Someone to claim us, someone to follow, someone to shame us, some brave Apollo...The Unabrewer brings us tales of Oregon’s move to become Big Brother in a very real sense.  I guess speeding ticket revenue and ridiculous car taxes just ain’t good enough anymore.

A burning city on my left, And a golden one on my right...Scott offers juxtaposition of two crimes and the media portrayal thereof at Environmental Republican.  Why anyone expects responsibility from journalists anymore I don’t know, but I do.  I should know better by now.  He also offers up advice to the French.

Late addition - the Commisar forgot to actually send one in!  Fearless Leader is not infallible as previously believed.  Do not spread this information or your families will be...visited.

Two hot girls on a hot summer night, looking for love...Through the magic of Photoshop, the commisar brings us attractive versions of two Cindys.  Hot oil should be involved.  Is it wrong that I masturba Nevermind.  I didn’t say anything.  Move along.

No, wait, I’ll admit something truly pathetic.  I think I recognize the body he used for Cindy.  I’m pretty sure it’s G.I. Ho.  Kill me now.

I know you ain’t wearin’ nothin’ underneath that overcoat...As for me?  Well, you can check out my thoughts on Cynthia McKinney’s crazyeyes, or go lighter and make fun of Sharon Stone’s flapjacks (and her inherent craziness).  Larry thinks she’s off her rocker too.  Larry also threw in comments on John Titor (whackadoo!) and Prince Charles talking a little sense about Islam.  Larry did this long after the rest of the post was written, so Larry doesn’t get a lyrical intro because he sent his submission to someone else.  That Larry!  ;)
