Princess and the homeboy

It's almost like the tv news in particular is more about entertainment, selling ads, and making a ton of money rather than keeping us informed vital civic matters...?

Another week of the MSM - somebody wake me on Friday please...

...it was hard but I managed to keep religion out of it:)...

Kennedy Predicts Immigration Bill Win
Sen. Edward Kennedy predicted Sunday that a bill overhauling U.S.
immigration law would be supported by enough Republicans to ensure its
passage this week.
The legislation, which needs 60 votes to move forward, is supported by President Bush.
There’s “a recognition in this country that doing nothing is not an
alternative,” Kennedy, D-Mass., said on ABC’s “This Week.” “The problem
is going to grow worse.”
“The reason we’re going to pass this bill is because it’s tough, fair and practical,” Kennedy said.
E MAIL FROM AN LA. FARMER 6.24:
We have just returned from the LA Farm Bureau convention in New Orleans at which this monstrosity of a bill was much discussed. We have been told that this bill will be jammed down our throats and that we do not matter.
In this bill are two poison pills to kill the H2A legal Mexican Worker
Program and the farmers like us who wish to use it. We must pay now the
highest wage rates of all farm labor called the Adverse Effect Wage
Rate which puts all of us at a disadvantage to all those who use
illegals. Under this new bill as a favor to Legal Services they may sue
us out of business and take away our farms after their return to Mexico
for any supposed infringement. As a bone they offer to throw us poor
dogs, they will freeze the wages we pay back to $7.01 for three years
after which they will rise to probably $10 or however much the liberal
bureaucrats figure it (which incidentally no one has ever bothered to
explain to us poor peasants) This wage rate does not include the free
housing and transportation and document fees that we pay. Those who
hire the illegals do not have to incur any of these costs, and only pay
minimum wage. We were told that poor Mary Landrieu had already spent so
much political capital voting against her party in a meaningless vote
on another amendment, and we should be so grateful to her. She might be
able to get rid of one of these two provisions, but certainly not both.
So which do we prefer to be sued out of our land or put out of business
in three years with increased labor cost. Thanks for the choice. Hang
now or be shot later. This is a blatant conspiracy to destroy honest farmers in favor of those who hire illegals.
Who needs Mary! They think we are dirt under their feet, they mean to
destroy us and the country at the same time insuring power to the
Democrats forever. If you don’t have at least a half a billion dollars,
you simply do not count with these people. We who make the country work
must thank our noble Congress for their crumbs. I have never seen such
arrogance in my entire life. (name withheld by request)

CRAWFISH NOTE: Hey swimmerTed, how about enforcing
the tough and practical 1986 bill? How about a real fence? Where is the
fence? How about we never trust you and your arrogant parasitic
friends? How about no more excuses from our self-serving “public
servants”?
Who do you think you are fooling? Did I mention there are 300,000
illegal aliens in U.S. jails for felony convictions? Good job Teddy.
There are no excuses. Seal the border. It took less than 500 days to
build the Empire State Building way back when… so get to the fence.
Burn this bill. Cut the crap.

Another "judge" that should be disbarred for life.  Do these people have any type of ethical values?

"Fred is a perfect example of chivalry. He’s the kind of man little girls dream about marrying, who opens doors for you, lights your cigarettes, helps you on with your coat, buys wonderful gifts. It’s every woman’s fantasy.”

I have a feeling that if the "Fairness Doctrine" were to be re-instated, that NewsBusters would enjoy even more notoriety!. :-)

"There are two types of people in this country; those who provide freedom and those who enjoy it." MM says...

Sometimes the truth slips out of the mouths of liberals without them knowing exactly what they have done. Sen. Feinstein said during her interveiw with Chris Wallace "I remember when there was a fairness doctrine, and I think there was much more serious correct reporting to people". Note the "correct". She said it without the least concern that anyone would question her belief in a correct way to report news or to have an opinion. Imagine a political appointee in a control room somewhere poised over a large button borrowed from a game show. "I'm sorry, Rush, but your last opinion was incorrect! Here is the correct opinion, given today by David Gregory of NBC and paid for by Rush Limbaugh and his sponsers! David, its your microphone!"

Afternoon misterb....

Sessions is supposed to taking the floor around five MT today....I think he is going to be making a speech of some kind about this illegal immigration bill.

Will keep you updated if anything new is said...or planned.

Lion,

I believe it falls under the generic "he" for referring to the third person singular in the English language.  Common usage infers that "he" does not refer to a gender, rather it is a convenient substitute for a singular individual of either sex in the third person.

Personally, it doesn't bother me one iota.  I find it preferable to he/she, or (most grammatically distasteful) they....which is clearly third person plural.

The grammar police are almost as insidiously stupid as the PC police are.  A pox on all their houses!

Why am I not surprised?
