As for heightened rhetoric, try this on for size; America is under seige by the far left, which is powerful today than at any other time in our lifetime and if left unchecked, it has the very real potential to destroy man’s last best hope on earth.
And just as with any conflict, truth is the first casualty.
Make no mistake about it, this is a rejection of the tea party. Not only that, it’s also putting politics before the challenges this nation faces. Yet again!
Why is illegal imigration such a problem in America? It’s because the leadership of both parties refuse to get serious about the issue out of fear of alienating the Hispanic vote. And Speaker Boehner is making it clear that he has no intentions of changing things.
Tea party groups across the nation should be outraged over this decision. Where are the national groups who are always so eager to claim leadership of the movement? Tea Party Patriots? Tea Party Express? Tea Party Nation? Perhaps, too busy issuing attention getting statements to the press or appealing for donations…
Florida is part of the State Legislators for Legal Immigration, being represented by Rep. William D. Snyder – District 82.
In addition to this effort at the state level, Congressman Steve King (R-IA) introduced legislation to end the practice of automatically granting American citizenship to “Anchor Babies” born in the United States to illegal alien parents.
Editor’s Note – Interestly, state Sen. Mike Bennett seems to be against his own bill!
The sponsor of legislation aimed at making it easier for Florida to weed out illegal immigrants told a newspaper Monday that he doubts an Arizona-style law will pass this year.
Bennett told the Miami Herald, “I might not even vote for it myself. There probably will not be an Arizona-immigration style bill that passes the Florida Senate.”

America lost a hero this past week, did you notice?
His name was Richard “Dick” Winters, the Easy Company commander whose World War II exploits were made famous by the bo and television miniseries “Band of Brothers”.

With emotions running high over the tragedy in Arizona and all the discussion of how this event is being played out in the media, I thought it would be interesting to see what our friends on the other side of the aisle have to say about it.
Checking in with the Florida Progressive Coalition Blog, an appropriate measuring stick, I find a blog focusing on the tweets of a handful of “right wingers” in the aftermath of the shooting.
As the title suggests, not exactly a ‘fair and balanced’ analysis by a long shot…

So, yes, you’re damn right the political discourse in this country is dangerously high.
It’s dangerously high because conservatives have grown weary of all the lies and half truths, the never ending play on words, the double standard in the media, where the burden of proof exists only on the right, and having to endure most of the above from the most partisan President in our lifetime.

The tragic events in Arizona this weekend have unleashed a barrage of attacks on conservatives in America. The New York Times and other liberal media outlets have suggested the “vitriolic” rhetoric of conservatives incited the mentally imbalanced attacker to shoot a Democratic Congresswomen.
But in the hours after the attack it became clear the shooter was not a tea party follower or a conservative. In fact he was and is a liberal democratic socialist.
