Bush under pressure on influx from Mexico

This issue is hot and getting hotter. The Chief has posted several times in the past that the GOP was in a position of being at least partially outflanked to the right on the border security issue. With the exception of a few outspoken people like Tom Tancredo (R-CO )the general level of squishiness on this from the President on down, leaves Donks a hole big enough to drive a busload of illegals through.

The emergency declarations of the Donk governors of Arizona and New Mexico, along with the concerned noises from Hilary herself show that some of them at least are getting the message from the voters at last. The real question, especially in Hilary's case is whether or not this is an actual substantive policy, or is just a ploy to hoodwink some red-state voters to shift in '08.

Based on the record, the Chief is inclined NOT to give much credibility to Sen. Hil's new-found moderation.

What can one say about this? Probably quite a bit, but the Chief will let the situation speak for itself in this case.

The husband of Cindy Sheehan has filed for divorce, citing "irreconcilable differences" with his anti-war wife.

This article does answer one question about the case of the moonbat protest camper & her family:

Members of her husband's family have criticized her. Last week, Casey's aunt and godmother, Cherie Quararolo of Kelseyville, Calif., and others in the family sent e-mail to a California radio station that challenged Mrs. Sheehan's motives. "We do not agree with the political motivations and publicity tactics of Cindy Sheehan. She appears to be promoting her own personal agenda at the expense of her son's good name and reputation," the family members said. "The rest of the Sheehan Family supports the troops, our country, and our president, silently with prayer and respect."

To End All Wars. It is based on the same story as Bridge on the River Kwai, but I understand that the more recent film is much more true to the real story. Here's the official movie site although I...
