There is absolutely nothing in the Constitution or any other legal document which precludes any state or group of states from seceding from the United States. This was true in 1861. Today, countries are split and otherwise reconfigured almost daily and the United States has evolved as the world’s moral leader in supporting rights of peoples to declare themselves independent. This is a comfortable position for U.S. politicians … as long as secession occurs in Europe, Asia, South America, or Africa. Continue…

“The message has gone out. People who are inclined to violate the law by hiring illegal aliens are inclined to go elsewhere. The law is in place and appears to be having the desired affect.” Kris Kobach, a University of Missouri-Kansas City law professor. Continue…

After the robbery and murder, Irby-Williams and Walker went on a shopping spree and ate out at the Red Lobster restaurant, where they spent about $175, charging documents say. Continue…

As a top teen model, Sara Ziff was earning the kind of money her school friends could only dream of. But there was a price to pay. She tells Louise France why she has made a documentary about what really happens behind the cameras. (Parents: Don’t let your daughters become models. — Ed.) Continue…

The whole point of the federal takeover of the auto industry, of course, is to enforce “climate change” restrictions on the industry. The code word is “cleaner” cars. That really means eliminating CO2 emissions to protect us from global warming. And it will be so much more efficient for government to dictate it directly to an industry it now owns than trying to argue with the pesky industry professionals who keep talking about what the buying public wants. Don’t they understand there is a crisis here? Continue…

In the roaring 90s, illegals poured over the borders as high as three million annually according to Time Magazine: “Who left the door open” by Barlett and Steele, September 20, 2004. Who watched it without flinching? Republicans along with democrats! Today, America faces another amnesty that will legalize in excess of 20 million illegal criminal aliens. Such an amnesty will alter and destabilize the entire political process for the United States of America. Continue…

In “Beware the January Divorce,” I stated that marriage is a corporation; you, the man, are the minority shareholder. And, the more children you have, the more your minority share dwindles. If this were not so, if matrimony were such a great deal for men, they’d be more interested in a trip down the altar than in watching SportsCenter, wouldn’t they?….Continue…

The Internal Revenue Service reported to Congress that it has not pursued some tax debt due to limited resources, manpower constraints and higher priorities.”A total of $332 million would be devoted to new Internal Revenue Service (IRS) enforcement efforts, including $128.1 million to add nearly 800 new IRS employees to combat… tax evasion and improve compliance with tax laws by businesses and high-income individuals,” said Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, himself an accused tax evader.

They’re nearly twice as a likely to have a sexually transmitted disease and less inclined to use a condom.(1) They’ve got a generally lax attitude toward mixing alcohol and sex and were barely out of high school and gunning to be Marines. A recently published study raised some eyebrows when it found that’s an apt description of women enlisting in the Corps. (In other words, the cost of feminism. –Ed) Continue…

Despite advances in parity in recent decades, white men in America on average still get paid more than women and minorities for doing the same work, by some accounts about 20 to 25 percent more. A new study finds one reason: In satisfaction surveys, store customers and medical patients say they prefer white men, and managers frequently hire and set pay based on customer preferences. (Read between the lines, we can’t have that – white men getting paid more! God forbid it.–Ed.)
