    Back From Hiatus

    Well folks, as you've probably noticed. I've been on hiatus during my stint on the Howard Kaloogian Congressional campaign. While I am extremely dissapointed at the outcome, it was an excellent experience. (Plus, beautiful San Diego has the best weather in the US.)

    I'm at a crossroads right now. I have many choices to make in the next few weeks that may determine much of my future. While I am anxious, I am also very excited.

    In the meantime, I came across another example of media ignorance and liberal deception a few days ago. Reuters news released an article titled, "
    Immigrant advocates convene May 1 work stoppage."

    Before I go any further, notice the title. The title for pro-amnesty/illegal immigrant individuals is "immigrant advocates." However, advocates for increased immigration and advocates for illegal immigration differ greatly. I, myself, could be considered an immigrant advocate, in that I support immigrants coming into this nation for a better life. However the must come legally. This is the first paragraph of that article:

    "U.S. immigrant rights advocates on Thursday called for a nationwide boycott of work, school and commerce on May 1, seeking to capitalize on the momentum of recent mass demonstrations across the country."

    "U.S. immigrant rights advocates"? What rights does one have when his or her first action is to break this country's laws? As individuals who have no right to be in America, illegal immigrants have no claim to any legal entitlements.

    While we could debate about illegal immigration all day, the greater observation here is of a typical liberal tactic: creating rights where none exist. The right to have an abortion; the right to get married despite obvious problems; now, its the right to be in this country illegally. My question: where did these rights come from?
