Immigration activist deported

This is what I call government efficiency. Way to go!

Elvira Arellano, like many other advocates for immigration reform, must have been frustrated. There hadn't been a hint of Congressional action on comprehensive immigration reform since the Senate compromise collapsed in late spring. In early August, the Bush Administration moved unilaterally to stiffen enforcement, with Department of Homeland Security head Michael Chertoff announcing more fines and penalties for employers who knowingly hire illegals as well as an increased border crackdown.

So Arellano, an undocumented immigrant who had spent a year holed up at Chicago's Adalberto United Methodist Church while defying a deportation order, made a risky move: she emerged from the storefront church, drove from Chicago to Los Angeles, and gave a series of very public speeches over the weekend. By Monday, the 32-year-old single mother was in Tijuana, having been arrested and deported in one fell swoop.

Rhetoric Blogger for Bluegrass Report returns.

Just when I thought the blog world was getting better, it looks like anti-family Blogger Mark Nickolas is gracing the commonwealth with his usual rhetoric on Bluegrass Report.

This guy really gets on my nerves with all his crap about the Republican Party of Kentucky. Checkout his site, he is a real nut job.

Democrats oppose FairTax

It is no surprise that only Republicans are supporting the FairTax movement that would eliminate federal income tax and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS, the word everyone hates to hear, as well as the Kentucky Department of Revenue, or DOR).

Democrats just don't believe in small government.

The FairTax Plan is a nonpartisan national grassroots campaign to replace the federal income tax system with a progressive national retail sales tax. It provides a "prebate" to ensure no American pays federal taxes on spending up to the poverty level, dollar-for-dollar federal revenue replacement and, through companion legislation, repeal of the 16th Amendment.

The FairTax would, for the first time, tax undocumented workers who now evade U.S. income and payroll taxes. Under the FairTax, all persons living in the U.S. pay taxes, whether they are here legally or illegally.

Sex group says Family Foundation is the modern day KKK

This is outrageous. If you do not want Kentucky to become the new Massachusetts we are members of the K.K.K. according to the Kentucky Equality Federation.

“It is time to bear witness to the fact that the people of Kentucky have stood for marriage, and do stand for marriage now,” said Kent Ostrander, executive director of the Lexington-based Family Foundation, which sponsored the rally.

Several legislators — most Republicans — spoke in support of the effort to get the General Assembly to pass legislation during the special yesterday, or in a special session Gov. Ernie Fletcher plans to call beginning Aug. 13.

The sex groups joined together to issue a joint press statement.

Unlike Kentucky Fairness Alliance, Kentucky Equality Federation has teeth. If you follow news about Kentucky Equality Federation in Louisville or Northern Kentucky they are young in comparison to the Louisville sex group or the KY Fairness Alliance meaning their management and members appear to be 28 or younger.

Are these tactics a sign of the times of what I have to look forward to as I get closer to 60? Maybe they are more than a sex group and possibly an age group also?

Join the fight against domestic partner benefits

It looks as if Kentucky Equality Federation and Kentucky Fairness Alliance have been successful in getting the General Assembly (Democrats no doubt) to drop the issue of boyfriend benefits from the Extraordinary Session Agenda. But do not worry just yet, the Family Foundation of Kentucky is planning a "protest" at the Capital to greet the House when they return. Join them if you can.

About 250 people are expected to gather Monday in Frankfort in opposition to domestic partner benefits in Kentucky’s public universities and agencies.

The “Rally to Protect Marriage” is set for 2 p.m. in the state Capitol Rotunda, said Kent Ostrander, executive director of the Family Foundation of Kentucky, the sponsor.

Ostrander said “we want to simply encourage the legislature to take up Senate Bill 5.” The legislation passed the upper chamber 28-6 in a truncated special session earlier this month.

In 2004, more people voted "Yes" for the Kentucky Marriage Protection Amendment than had ever voted both "Yes" and "No" combined on any other constitutional amendment in Kentucky history. After passage with record-breaking participation by citizens, those pushing "other" sexual relationships counter-attacked by influencing the upper-level administrations of the state’s two flagship universities – the University of Kentucky and University of Louisville.

There they set out to create "domestic partnerships" and offer them benefits. U of L started offering such benefits to employees who had live-in homosexual or heterosexual lovers in January and UK's Board decided to follow U of L's lead in April. Their goal is to establish them at the two largest universities, move them into other schools, then into cities and, ultimately, render the Marriage Protection Amendment useless.

Local group wants to keep us dependant on foreign oil

I guess nothing is good enough for Kentuckians for the Commonwealth. They do not want the United States, or Kentucky, to lower its dependance on foreign oil.

They have planned a protest tomorrow in Louisville:

"Peabody CEO Gregory Boyce, Senate President David Williams, Governor Ernie Fletcher, and Speaker Richards will meet at the Louisville International Convention Center to discuss a massive subsidies package for coal-to-liquid plants that would give Big Coal hundreds of millions of dollars in incentives and tax breaks. We want to be there to greet them. Join KFTC members and allies outside the convention center on 4th Street between Market and Jefferson Streets."

Lexington's largest private employer faces financial problems

Even as Lexmark International agrees to get into bed with a gay sex group, Kentucky Fairness Alliance, doubts continue about the company's future.

Lexington's largest private employer is focused on improving its inkjet division, and thinks it will be a profitable contributor in the long term.

But the projected earnings shortfall has again given rise to conjecture on whether Lexmark might be prime for a buyout.

Analysts and others point to parts of the business that would make Lexmark an appealing buy for a private equity firm or other purchaser. But they also note the barriers that could discourage such an acquisition.

Steady annuity has declined on Lexmark's inkjet side because its installed base of printers has shrunk as, among other things, it withdrew from part of the market in a bid to increase profitability.

Is sodomy and homosexuality becoming a national trend? Kentucky Equality Federation apparently thinks so!

A very interesting conversation going on between some liberals and conservatives in this post from Kentucky Progress.

Add your thoughts to the self righteous Kentucky Equality Federation's comments about sodomy and homosexuality becoming a national trend. What kind of crack are these guys smoking?

Lexmark International funds gay sex group

According to the Kentucky Fairness Alliance, Lexmark International is funding gays.

Boycott Lexmark!!! Stop purchasing their ink cartridges and their printers. I realize Lexmark is just wanting a tax credit so what about cancer research, Fraternal Order of Police, Hospice of the Bluegrass, Salvation Army?

Contact Lexmark (www.lexmark.com) and complain about them spending the money you pay them (when you purchase something with their name on it) on unrighteousness.

The Homosexual Agenda

I could not help myself, I thought this was funny. Warning: Some may not find this to be "politically correct" but who cares?

The Homosexual Agenda

8:00 a.m. Wake up. Wonder where you are.

8:01 a.m. Realize you are lying on 100 percent cotton sheets of at least a 300 count, so don't panic; you're not slumming.

8:02 a.m. Realize you are actually in your own bed for a change. Wake stranger next to you and tell them you are late for work so won't be able to cook breakfast for them. Mutter "sorry" as you help him look for his far-flung underwear. You find out that you tore his boxers while ripping them off him last night, so you "loan" him a pair of boxer-briefs, but not the new ones because you never intend to see him again.

8:05 a.m. Tell the stranger, whose name eludes you, "It was fun. I'll give you a call," as you usher him out the door, avoiding his egregious morning-breath.

8:06 a.m. Crumple and dispose of the piece of paper with his telephone number on it when you get to the kitchen.

8:07 a.m. Make a high protein breakfast while watching the Today show. Wonder if the stories you've heard about Matt Lauer are true. Decide they must be.

8:30 a.m. Italian or domestic? Decide to go with three-button Italian and the only shirt that is clean.

8:45 a.m. Climb into red Z4 and try not to look too much like Barbie driving one of her accessories as you pull out of your underground parking. Revos or Armanis? Go with Revos.

9:35 a.m. Stroll into office.

9:36 a.m. Close door to office and call best friend and laugh about the guy who spent the night at your condo. Point out something annoying about best friend's boyfriend but quickly add "It doesn't matter what everyone else thinks, just as long as you love him."

10:15 a.m. Leave office, telling your secretary you are "meeting with a client." Pretend not to notice her insubordinate roll of her eyes (or the cloying "poem" she has tacked to her cubicle wall).

10:30 a.m. Hair appointment for lowlights and cut. Purchase of Aveda anti-humectant pomade.

11:30 a.m. Run into personal trainer at gym. Pester him about getting you Human Growth Hormone. Spend 30 minutes talking to friends on your cell phone while using Hammer Strength machines, preparing a mental-matrix of which circuit parties everyone is going to and which are now passe.

12:00pm Tan. Schedule back-waxing in time for Saturday party where you know you will end up shirtless.

12:30 p.m. Pay trainer for anabolic steroids and schedule a workout. Shower, taking ten minutes to knot your tie while you check-out your best friend's boyfriend undress with the calculation of someone used to wearing a t-back and having dollars stuffed in their crotch.

1:00 p.m. Meet someone for whom you only know his waist, chest and penis size from AOL M4M chat for lunch at a hot, new restaurant. Because the maître d' recognizes you from a gay bar, you are whisked past the Christian heterosexual couples who have been waiting patiently for a table since 12:30.

2:30 p.m. "Dessert at your place." Find out, once again, people lie on AOL.

3:33 p.m. Assume complete control of the U.S., state, and local governments (in addition to other nations' governments); destroy all healthy Christian marriages; recruit all children grades Kindergarten through 12 into your amoral, filthy lifestyle; secure complete control of the media, starting with sitcoms; molest innocent children; give AIDS to as many people as you can; host a pornographic "art" exhibit at your local art museum; and turn people away from Jesus, causing them to burn forever in Hell.

4:10 p.m. Time permitting, bring about the general decline of Western Civilization and look like you are having way too much fun doing it.

4:30 p.m. Take a disco-nap to prevent facial wrinkles from the stress of world conquest and being so terribly witty.

6:00 p.m. Open a fabulous new bottle of Malbec.

6:47 P.M. Bake Ketamine for weekend. Test recipe.

7:00 P.M. Go to Abercrombie & Fitch and announce in a loud voice, "Over!"

7:40 P.M. Stop looking at the photographic displays at Abercrombie & Fitch and go to a cool store to begin shopping.

8:30 p.m. Light dinner with catty homosexual friends at a restaurant you will be "over" by the time it gets its first review in the local paper.

10:30 p.m. Cocktails at a debauched gay bar, trying to avoid alcoholic queens who can't navigate a crowd with a lit cigarette in one hand and a Stoli in a cheap plastic cup in the other. Make audible remark about how "trashy" people who still think smoking is acceptable are.

12:00 a.m. "Nightcap at your place." Find out that people lie in bars, too.
