Does everyone remember how not too long ago the House passed an abortion restriction bill that we all knew was symbolic because it would never even get a hearing in the Senate? Remember how The Daily Dead Fishwrapper did a front page story, including a hug picture, with our legislators hugging each other and celebrating their entirely symbolic victory because they passed a bill that they believed in? I don't remember that either.
But somehow the equally symbolic civil "we don't call it gay marriage" unions bill got a front page, above the fold, headline.
The Fishwrapper did not redeem itself but did give me a chuckle when it documented Dianne "above the law" Linn's bungling of the new Blazers coach, Nate McMillan. Lars played the audio on Friday and it was pretty funny.
Washington Dems spin various conspiracy theories on how Bush and his "cronies" have conspired with Saudi Arabia (and probably various Zionists) to make you pay more for gas but at the same time have fallen in love with a gas tax. An obsessive love at that. I mean, they call every 5 minutes, send love notes all the time, tattoo it's name on their arms... or at least defend it to it's death. Orbusmax has excellent coverage.
This story, Judge: Government canÂ’t fund Boy Scouts event is absolutely nuts. The ACLU is worried that young men might grow up with some values and is attacking the Boy Scouts with everything they have. In unrelated news, a lesscontroversiall group, NAMBLA (North American man-boy love association) may ask the DOD if they can use the space previously reserved for the scouts. The ACLU wholeheartedly supports this.
In the wonderful forms that government has produced with your tax dollars category tonight we have the:
STATEMENT OF NO SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER
This is for those illegal aliens who are timid aboutcommittingg ID theft and forgery. I only wish they had found that healthy respect for the law before they came hereillegallyy...

When an illegal alien fills out the "Statement of No SSN" form, do they get a little symbol on their license that states they are illegal? You know, like the symbol you get for having to wear corrective lenses?
Just a thought. This would be great for when all those illegals register to vote :)
Daniel, no rant about the front page of the Statesman Journal today?
Great idea Don! They have an "B" for corrective lenses, a "D" for donor, and may I suggest a "G" (as in Get the hell out of my country) for illegal aliens!
Didn't see the Statemens Urinal, is it along the same lines as The Oregononian?
Sue, it never ceases to amaze me how our mainstream media has all these "meth watch" segments but rarely covers the illegal alien aspect of the story. Their solution: restrict access to cold pills...
BTW, I think that they will destroy the firearms rather than sell them. I'm going to have to check on that one though.
Daniel, below the fold headline in Statesman,
"One in 10 U.S. births are to illegal immigrants".
Won't find it in the online Statesman (go figure!).
Link to the study is on my blog.
