Wonderful California Legislature Passes Bill To Jerry Brown To Prevent Arrests Of Illegals
Weasel Zippers linked to this column in the Sacramento Bee
Posted by Gazoo in the comments to this article. Sorry about the language elsewhere.
"Fuentes received the final word only a few weeks ago that the safe harbor program could be created through legislation, without a statewide vote, which prompted the gut-and-amend of SB 901 so late in the legislative year, Golombek said."
"The [California] Assembly Friday passed and sent to Gov. Jerry Brown legislation that would prohibit law enforcement officers from detaining undocumented immigrants for federal authorities when they are released from criminal custody, unless they have a history of serious or violent crime.
"He and other Democrats said it’s aimed at preventing otherwise non-threatening immigrants to go about with their lives without fear of deportation, while Republicans argued that the effect would be to give criminally inclined illegal immigrants a sanctuary. (AB 1081 roll of votes)
"The 44-23 vote to send the measure to Brown was strictly along party lines, although some members of both parties declined to vote." Posted by Gazoo in the comments to this article. Sorry about the language elsewhere.

Hey, Biden Had Girlfriends Too!

Background; Does Paul Ryan's Black Ex-Girlfriend Matter?
"As reported on Twitter by CNN's Pete Hamby, Ryan said he has a black sister-in-law, but perhaps even more interesting, his "college sweetheart" was African American." Democrats are frantically thinking up talking points to neutralize this.

"In fact, discussion by the mainstream media of the president’s interracial relationships often implied that he was more tolerant, complicated and interesting I’m curious why Ryan isn’t afforded the same kind of perspective."
Anyway, here is the aforementioned article from Bernie Goldberg.com:
"The Chicago Democratic organization has quietly promised President Obama that it will try to offset the black-girlfriend effect by paying black voters to vote four times during the election, up from the customary three. But this is seen strictly as a symbolic gesture, because Obama seems certain to win the state of Illinois by a wide margin, no matter what.
"The more effective tactic, the strategists agree, is to retroactively link the Democratic candidates to every known ethnic, racial and religious group in the United States. ....
“They were all fantastic babes,” Biden is said to have remarked. “I dearly love every one of those groups — I mean women.”
"The Biden operative said the vice president is prepared to state that he dated gay men too if there is any indication that this group might stray from its traditional allegiance to the Democratic party."

Logan's Warning to America about creeping Sharia (Islamic law)
About Logan's Warning; "The primary mission of this website is to educate non-Muslims on the ideology and practice of Islam and to Islam's threats to our free and open society. The goal is to assist in developing legislation to defeat the dangerous Sharia movement underway here in America. Violence is not the answer, nor is it acceptable."
Muslim in America to Logan’s Warning: We WILL OVERTHROW the US Government!
A Muslim is being deceptive to non-Muslims about Islam by only telling them only part of the story, or by flat out lying. (Their religion instructs them lie.) Then I expose their deception and lies. After that their response is to usually pull a Houdini and disappear from the conversation. But the conversation I had on YouTube with Jihadifanclub (who I had written about back in 2011) took a different turn. This traitor to America came right out and stated, “We as Muslims will overthrow it”.
Muslim in America to Logan’s Warning: Convert, Accept Islamic Rule, or Else….
"Last week the insidious Islamic organization, the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MAPC), once again used the freedoms of America against America,and held a teleconference on “Islamophobobia”. Muslims use the term “Islamophobia” as an attack tactic in an attempt to bully and silence those who criticize Islam. What MPAC and other insidious Islamic organizations like CAIR do not tell you is that the term was born in Iran back in 1979 following the Islamic Revolution."
Turning the Tables on MPAC and Muslim Attorney Wajahat Ali….Part II
"In the closing of the article I asked where Ali’s true loyalty lies, with America or the Koran? Between his attempts at intimidation, non-responses to me, and the following video, I’m going with the Koran. Maybe Ali would like to come here and prove me wrong?"

First we will invite you to Islam or you let Islam rule without any oppression. Then the last alternative is to fight your army. Like I said before bringing family values to a society is not oppression.Turning the Tables on MPAC and Muslim Attorney Wajahat Ali….

All emphases in the original.
When Islamists speak, remember that lying is permissible and even recommended
After 9-11, I was invited by a Muslim co-worker to attend an informational talk on Islam hosted by the local Islamic Center. I brought up the subject of Israel's right to exist in their present location and the Imam answered yes; when I quizzed him further, he reemphasized his answer.
Only later did I learn the teaching of Taqiyya and realize that I had been finessed. TD
The film "2016 -- Obama's America"
Neal Boortz on the film, "2016 -- Obama's America" "Now I tried to watch this movie with somewhat a different eye than most of the people in that theater. As hard as it is to do … I tried to watch it as an Obama supporter. I was looking for something that was clearly untrue or for logical lapses relating to Obama’s positions. (Yeah, like a liberal would recognize a logical lapse.) Not once did I think to myself “Oh now come on, Dinesh. That’s a little much.”
"There were a few things in the movie that I had not realized … a few surprises for me."

Reflections on the Obama presidency
Ed Lasky: Obama's Work Ethic Criticized Again "He shows energy only when he campaigns -- and it is a negative energy, driven more by rage (we hear of his contempt for Mitt Romney) than, let's say, hope. He likes to shoot hoops with NBA stars, hang out with celebrities, play golf, take vacations, give speeches before adoring crowds, and collect cash from campaign contributors, but he does not like the humdrum responsibilities that come from being president.
"When things do not work out when his policies roll out, he blames others -- whether inanimate or animate (ATMs, tsunamis, Europe, Republicans, "lazy" and soft" Americans -- he blames us). ( Emphasis added)
"If he were an employee, Obama would have been fired long ago."
Imagine...
Imagine, a president who has a passionate love for the history, tradition, and values of America, including blemishes and frailties, and is completely dedicated to preservation of our culture and values.Read more...
Imagine, a president who respects the rule of law, the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the separation of powers under our form of self- rule.
Imagine, a president loathe to apologize for American values, religion, or leaders while on foreign soil.
Imagine, a president who really believes in the Exceptionalism of America’s people, Constitution, and culture.
Imagine a president NOT so arrogant and delusional as to believe that he is capable of, and should, “fundamentally transform” the greatest nation in human history. John W. Lillpop
'OIHO' and other Obama gaffes on the campaign trail this week
Right; the whole thing is just a fun screw-up and no big deal. But since the Democrats made such a brouhaha over Dan Quayle's inconsequential misspelling of "potato", I'm including this for them. This is for you, Dems, my former party. TD
Cartoonist Mike Ramirez took note of the whole thing and, as usual, had his own take on it:
Cardinal sin: Bam blew off DNC blessing
NY Post "Obama and Dolan have clashed publicly over a health-care law requiring employers to provide abortion coverage.
"Dolan and other groups filed suit against the rule, claiming it forces church-related groups to act against their conscience.
"Still, Dolan invited both Obama and Mitt Romney to his annual Alfred E. Smith dinner in New York City in October.
" “The Republicans are smart enough to get the ‘pope of America,’ and the Democrats are stupid enough not to invite him,” said Bill Donohue, of the Catholic League, who said he spoke with Dolan yesterday.
" “The Catholic vote is the most critical vote. They’re the wild card,” Donohue told The Post. “So, why wouldn’t you ingratiate yourself to the pope of America and send a wink and a nod to Catholics? That’s just good politics.”
"Former Mayor Ed Koch, an Obama supporter who said he likes Dolan, said, “The Republicans are very smart to ask him.” "

Mitt Romney: What I Learned at Bain Capital
Wall Street Journal My business experience taught me how to help companies grow—and what to do when trouble arises. When you see a problem, run toward it before the problem gets worse.
"In the 1990s, when the "old-technology" steel industry in the U.S. was failing, Bain Capital helped build a new steel company, Steel Dynamics, which has grown into one of the largest steel producers in America today, holding its own against Chinese producers. The key to its success? State-of-the-art new technology."

Leftists being leftists at the RNC Convention
Sweetness and Light Team Obama breaks precedent to try to spoil Romney’s convention
"Presidential candidates have traditionally kept a low profile during their opponent’s nominating celebration, but Democrats are throwing those rules out the window in an attempt to spoil Mitt Romney’s coronation as the GOP nominee.
Related: Bricks And Pipes Found Near RNC Convention
"President Obama, Vice President Biden and leading congressional Democrats have all scheduled high-profile events next week to counter-program the Republican gathering in Tampa.
"Even first lady Michelle Obama is in on the act, scheduling an appearance on the “David Letterman Show” smack in the middle of Romney’s nominating bash."....
The purpose of the Democratic blitz is clear: With Romney and the Republicans scrambling to defend Romney’s tax history and undo the damage from Rep. Todd Akin’s (R-Mo.) recent comments on rape and abortion, Obama and the Democrats don’t want to give the GOP a week-long opening to shift the discussion back to jobs and the economy — Obama’s chief vulnerability heading into November’s elections…
