George W. Bush visited a border region in Arizona today and granted interviews to the MSM. In one interview with Fox News’ Carl Cameron, Bush said that the Mexican government has a “duty to enforce their side of the border”.
He’s right, and this sentiment should be echoed by other administration officials as well as Congress.

The FBI has been digging near Detroit for the past 36 hours. They have a press conference coming up soon where they’ll make a special announcement. Is the mystery finally solved? Where’s Geraldo?
UPDATE: Excavation will take weeks.
Or does he just play one on TV? Check out the new political ad for Ned Lamont. The Kos Kidz must be so proud.
Things got a little testy after a Senate panel pushed ahead a constitutional ban on same-sax marriage.
“If you want to leave, good riddance,” Senate Judiciary Chairman Arlen Specter told Wisconsin Democratic Sen. Russell Feingold, who refused to participate because, he said, the meeting was not sufficiently open to the public.
“I’ve enjoyed your lecture too. See you later, Mr. Chairman,” Feingold told the Pennsylvania Republican before storming out.
Boo-hoo. Russ is obviously still protesting following his ‘No border fence’ vote made yesterday. What a weasel.
The rancor didn’t stop there.
Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, the committee’s top Democrat, said the gay marriage ban was a waste of time for a committee that needs to tackle a wide range of other pressing issues, from judicial nominations to oversight of the National Security Administration’s domestic-spying program.
“I didn’t realize marriages were so threatened. Nor did my wife of 44 years,” Leahy said.
Leahy said Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch, who supports the gay-marriage ban, has expressed support for polygamists in his home state of Utah. “I never said that,” Hatch responded.
“I know some (polygamists) that are very sincere. … Don’t accuse me of wanting to have polygamy.”
Heh.
If this keeps going, someone’s bound to bring up Sen. Byrd’s white sheet days.
Yum yum.
The Representative from Michigan, John Conyers Jr. aligns himself with Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and insists that Democrats would not immediately seek to impeach George W. Bush should they be voted into power this coming November. The funny thing is, Conyers has been one of the biggest advocates of impeachment in the House, so someone has obviously gotten to the man, convincing him to ‘cool the rhetoric’. John Hawkins looks at the matter and gives reasons why no one should trust Conyers, or any Democrat wearing sheep clothing, when it comes to impeachment denial.
