- Do you want the USA to become the United States of Latin America? All it takes is the political will to rid ourselves of illegal aliens. The way to begin fixing the illegal alien problem: Build the fence system, fully manned and equipped, from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. Then begin deporting illegal aliens at a rate of 50,000 per month. Since the vast majority of illegal aliens are Mexicans these two actions will prevent most new illegal alien invaders from coming into the USA (the fence system), begin getting rid of large numbers of illegal aliens, and cause many others to voluntarily leave the country. If we just keep deporting them at a rate of at least 50,000 a month, in about 20 years we'll rid of most of them. The alternative: In time we will become the United States of Latin America.

- I hope reason over rascism, religionism, and richism have the day this November. There are no easy answers. But if we work together as Gov. Brown implores we can find our center and restore our greatness, which is ultimately our ability to recreate ourselves and become better in the process.

- If republican voters can't see the huge numbers of people that the GOP has turned agaist, they must be dumb and blind. The GOP has moved against women, hispanics, the poor, the disabled, and the middleclass. The people in these groups number in the 100 million range. The GOP continues to bite the hands that feed them. They have huddled with the 1%, and their actions will come back to haunt them in upcoming elections. Gov Brown is absolutely correct in his accessment of the GOP.

- Leigh Ann Caldwell profiles the indomitable California governor, still feisty and forthright in his latter years. His acerbic comments about the de-evolution of the Republican party are spot on: this crowd has painted themselves into a shrinking corner with improbable attacks on women, Hispanics, gays and anyone else they can think of. It really looks like a suicide pact from here: women alone are over half the population (and half the voters). Couldn't they imagine the consequences of poking that sleeping dragon in the eye for sport? Our Hispanic brothers and sisters are justifiably miffed that state after Republican-controlled state has passed legislation that targets their demographic with a vengeance. Even US-born people of color can be stopped at the whim of any sheriff regardless of whether or not they've done anything wrong (like speeding). Keep it up, GOP. You still have a chance to alienate the elderly, dog lovers and college students before November if you get to work,

- The answer to our problems in this country is obvious. We just need to listen to Romney and borrow tens of thousands of dollars from our parents to start sandwich shops or office supply stores.

- The Chinese own the Obama cabinet. That is the only viable explanation for our government's adherence to a direction that has doubled our foreign debt in three years and can only end up with China influencing many of our future decisions (essentially owning us!!!). I envision a situation like with Iran, where if China decides to let them have their nuke, and we don't agree, they can just simply threaten us with stopping future purchases of our near-junk Government Bonds. Guess what, Iran would end up with their weapon of mass destruction!!!

- What's wrong with me? I found Bush likeable and I find Obama likable. I don't agree with both of them but I like both. The last couple of decades it's been hatred for the Potus. how did we get here?
