I see Cindy Carlisle is proposing to give "undocumented students" taxpayer-subsidized tuition in college. This means that illegal aliens who snuck into this country will recieve a huge monetary benefit compliments of the already hurting middle-class taxpayers. Gee thanks, Cindy. Liberals like Cindy are always very generous -- with someone else's money, of course.It seems to me that policies like this can only worsen the already critical border-crossing problem by giving an extra incentive to anyone wanting to sneak in to USA. If 12 million illegals isn't enough, this will surely result in more flooding in. I would suggest that if Cindy and others like her want to help illegal aliens that she do so with her own money, and have some respect for the taxpayer for a change. I will not vote for you, Cindy.

The US performs poorly on major health indicators, such as life expectancy, infant mortality and immunization rates, in comparison. Full story »

According to the Colorado Daily (Paula Pant. March 27, “Reaching toward a rainbow”) CU-Boulder Chancellor Bud Peterson told a meeting of CU's “Regents and the chancellors from all three campuses” on March 26, that “Boulder's goal is to create a campus that accurately reflects its surrounding demographics.” By these words does he mean that the number of CU-Boulder's students are to proportionately represent African Americans, Hispanics and American Indians who live in the State. Let's see, if 30 percent of Colorado's high school graduates each year are members of minority groups, and 70 percent are non-minority Americans, then for every 7 white American admittees, 3 minority members would be admitted. That's not admission by merit, but racism. That's not uniting America, but dividing us all. Full story »
