     Unless every single FEMA employee involved in any way in the “press conferance” is fired and barred from ever working for the feds again, then no appropriate action will have been taken

     Yeah, Bluesy, I cringe every time I hear that term offered up as a very bad and meaningless substitute for “wrong”. (It’s use that way is pandemic, arrgh..)

     CHERTOFF is a disgrace to us all. Time after time he betrays the security of this nation. This last time where he’s rubber-stamping New York’s effort to issue driver’s licenses to illegal criminal aliens abhorrent and unacceptable.

     What really bothers me is the absence of rage against New York! Neighboring states should be blockading their borders with New York and the Federal Government should immediately freeze all Federal money that is going to the state.

     The violations of decency continue to grow worse and worse, yet there’s little discernable outcry against them.

     Here it is folks…right from the horses mouth! Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said he was not happy that New York intended to issue IDs to illegal immigrants. But he said there was nothing he could do to stop it. WHAT THE @#$%!!!!!

     “I don’t endorse giving licenses to people who are not here legally, but federal law does allow states to make that choice,” Chertoff said.

     Think about that, “states” are allowed to make their own choice! So, when will the herion, pot smoking state come into effect…considering “states” get to choose now; how about wife-beating states, and pediphile states next! Our country is toast!

     #105 Dr. Lead Based Paint:

     “The violations of decency continue to grow worse and worse, yet there’s little discernable outcry against them.”

     This gambit of Spitzer’s is yet another example of salami tactics.

     It is by such incremental, baby-step, salami-slice tactics that the left has been able to kick our society and culture as far down into the sewer as it has over the past 30-40 years.

     Leftists appeal to emotions;

     yet, they employ sophisticated, legalistic, sophistic, confusing, distracting, obfuscating techniques that are the stock-in-trade of…whom would you say? Lawyers? Nnaaww!!! Ya think?!

     Leftists, who have a humanist, secular, existentialist, morally relativistic worldview, do not, I think, believe in the existence of the soul.

     Whereas, I would think the (?vast?) majority of traditionalists and conservatives likely do believe in the existence of the soul.

     Leftists have managed to force the culture war to be argued on their home turf; by which I mean in their language.

     It is extremely difficult (?perhaps futile?) to argue against leftists’ positions by using their language (see above).

     By skilfully employing sophistry in a seemingly logical, stepwise approach, leftists can lead a decent, rational person to arrive at the conclusion that:

     It is OK to murder your parents;

     It is OK to lie and steal;

     It is OK to kill an innocent.

     By having chosen the language of the battle, so to speak, leftists have a great advantage in our culture war.

     Trying to make a moral argument using the leftists’ sophistic language will likely be extremely difficult, possibly futile:

     Perhaps as futile as trying to describe selfless, sacrificial marital love, in terms of to whom belong what assets, and in terms of prenuptial agreements;

     Perhaps as futile as trying to explain that the speed of light is the upper limit of speed for an object, by using classical Newtonian mechanics;

     Perhaps as futile as trying to explain Zeno’s paradox of Achilles and the hare, without using integral calculus.

     To win our culture war, we’re going to have to repeatedly, relentlessly, mercilessly (but civilly and truthfully) expose and challenge the leftists; and do it in front of as large a national audience as possible, as often as possible.

     (Had a much better, tighter version of this post virtually finished, when I hit a (?which?) key and lost the whole kit & kaboodle. Sorry….)

     Chertoff is the fruit of the same Bush tree, that has given us:
     - Condi Rice.
     - Karen Hughes.
     - Iftaar dinners.
     - Guest worker program.
     - Temporary worker program.
     - MS13.
     - NAU

     Yer again, the answer to all this is: Tom Tancrredo, R-CO: http://www.teamtancredo.typepad.com
