The citizens of Canada should be asking their government if, in the event that their unscientific plan to stop global warming does not work, they can get all their money back that the government plans to suck from their hides: The Green party wants Canadian drivers to pay an extra 12 cents a litre at […]

More Hypochondriac Misinformation

My site has been plagued by false claims of pending doom on the immigration issue. These false profits of doom keep emphasizing the empty rhetoric Bush so accurately called the immigration bill’s opponents on. For example, if you hear gang members and sex offenders are exempt (as many a Chicken Little posted in my comments […]

The Immigration Insanity, II

Reader BigLSUFan noted that if the current bill, which supposedly suffers in the enforcement area, did not have the Guest Worker element it would have been praised to high heaven by the immigration hypochondriacs.
