Looking for something interesting to do on Friday night? Check this out. (Co-hosted by Delaware Tomorrow’s Michael Stafford) A key part of the national conversation over immigration reform and Arizona’s S.B. 1070 is coming to Delaware this weekend.

Constitution Smonstitution
Buoyed by recent public opinion polls suggesting they’re on the right track with illegal immigration, Arizona Republicans will likely introduce legislation this fall that would deny birth certificates to children born in Arizona – and thus American citizens according to the U.S. Constitution – to parents who are not legal U.S. citizens. The law largely […]
Republican Short-Sightedness
This was obvious to everyone but the GOP. Today, a new NBC/MSNBC/Telemundo poll shows a similar trend at the national level, where “Latinos, once a semi-swing group of voters, now have swung overwhelmingly for President Obama and the Democratic Party, and younger Hispanics are moving to the Democrats in even greater numbers.” For example, 68% […]
It’s OK to Root For the Phoenix Suns Again…
This is something that I never expected to see from a pro sports franchise: In an extremely bold move, the Phoenix Suns as an organization made a strong political statement in opposition to the recent Arizona immigration bill. Discussions on taking action began last week after the bill passed, with an idea that came from Robert […]
So What’s Next: Climate or Immigration?
Well, today was supposed to be the first day of the rest of our lives, climate change legislationally-speaking. John Kerry, Joe Leiberman, and Lindsey Graham were set to publicly unveil their “tripartisan” climate change bill today, at least until Graham decided to walk away.

Immigration Reform and Outing A Senator
Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to title this post since the subject matter doesn’t exactly flow. But it seems that the immigration debate has taken a turn… William Gheen, head of the conservative, anti-“amnesty,” anti-illegal immigration group Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC), spoke at a Greenville, S.C. Tea Party rally this weekend and called […]
Where’s The Teabagger Army?
Arizona just passed a bill making it mandatory that you have your papers with you in the state: The bill, known as SB 1070, makes it a misdemeanor to lack proper immigration paperwork in Arizona. It also requires police officers, if they form a “reasonable suspicion” that someone is an illegal immigrant, to determine the […]

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano says that security has been beefed up on our borders as well as an increase in workplace immigration enforcement reports The Los Angles Times. In her speech at the Center for American Progress, Napolitano hinted that immigration reform could be on its way in 2010. Some haters believe that the […]
Thursday’s Open Thread
As I get ready to visit an old rat whose fondness of children is too Jacksonesque for my taste and his friend, a mumbling duck who is a bit too comfortable with his sexuality, I present to you Thursday’s Open Thread. In case you didn’t stop by Delaware Liberal yesterday, you missed us taking down […]
This little brown bastard is f’ing it up for the GOP!
If they go debunking the myth that they aren’t all criminals trying to rape our children , eat our women and steal our minimum wage jobs then well, well we may have to treat them like, like, Like people. Damn you pedro, Damn you to hell (or Mexico) bendajo!
Now can someone tell me
Well, since the post below achieved it’s mission which was no one has a fucking clue as to why amnesty is such a bad thing or how illegals are really impacting our country in a negative fashion. I will ask the next question I have: 1. So all you brain trusts if amnesty wont work, then how […]
