#4 Why does the invented word "Tem-permanent" Run through my mind?

Got it, More Democratic voters. Not familiar with our system and laws, they are easily tricked.
And all so grateful to our BLACK (As are they) asshole in chief.

#5 According to Reuters, Secretary of Homeland Security Napolitano announced this does not apply to Haitians fleeing their country following the earthquake. "Haitians need to be there to help rebuild their country, this is not an opportunity for migration," Napolitano said.

#6 Happened to be in So FL this week, where this is of course really big news.

There was a feature of a Haitian illegally in the U.S. for 13 years. He looked 60 and was riding a rickety bicycle.

The newsy said the Haitian had been doing "odd jobs" for 13 years and looking forward to becoming a citizen so he could have a "real job."

My guess is "odd jobs" is code for "sells weed" and "a real job" means go on welfare until Soc Sec and Medicare kick in.

Oh and Temporary Protected Status means Acorn delegate.
