EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT...
The latest edition of "Lawfully Wedded" is posted on today's News & Views EXTRA
page. It includes two primary subjects: (1) The battle for a federal marriage
amendment is lost (including some tough love wisdom by conservative columnist
Cal Thomas), and (2) alternative legislative options short of a constitutional
amendment which would address judicial activism itself and not just gay
marriage. A lot to chew on. Check it out by surfing over to:

Conservative columnist Michelle Malkin, daughter of LEGAL immigrants, has penned
an excellent piece on the hornet's nest former Maryland Democrat Gov. Donald
Schaefer and current Republican Gov. Bob Ehrlich have stirred up over the
failure of today's immigrants to "adjust" to our culture and language. Catch it

SURVEY SAYS!
Washington insiders say that while the issue of illegal immigration stirs up a
lot of fuss, it's NOT an issue which swings votes one way or the other in an
election campaign. Are they correct? Is a candidate's position on illegal
immigration an issue which, in and of itself, could swing your vote one way or
the other in a given election?

CANNES SHOCKER...NOT
Michael Moore's Bush-whacking new film, "Fahrenheit 9/11," won the Cannes Film
Festival. Who didn't see that coming a mile away? "The jury that awards the
Cannes prize is trying to tell the world that their decision was not politically
motivated," writes talk show host Neal Boortz. "We're dealing with an event in
France that is judged by our leftist Hollywood elite, and they're telling us
that politics has nothing to do with the award?" These people are nothing if
not predictable.
PIN A MEDAL ON 'EM
"In San Diego, a couple of teachers have been suspended for showing the
pictures of American Nick Berg being killed by his Muslim captors in Iraq. Oh,
the outrage that our delicate high schoolers would be subjected to reality. Far
from suspending these teachers, we should give them medals (maybe the ones John
Kerry threw away). They have done their students a big favor. They have
introduced these soon-to-be-adults to the notion that it is a dangerous world
out there.
"...It is a mean, nasty, dreadful world out there, but one which we have managed
to keep at bay, not by the UN, but by our own Constitutional government. Those
teachers who dared acquaint their sheltered and misled underlings about a little
part of the real world deserve a promotion and thanks from all of us. If they
lose their jobs over this it will demonstrate just how far cultural Marxism
(i.e. political correctness) has infiltrated this once great country."
- Paul M. Weyrich, chairman of the Free Congress Foundation
ATLAS YAWNED
"You would have thought the discovery of an actual weapon of mass destruction (WMD)
in Iraq would be big news, especially since it was aimed at American soldiers.
But apparently not in the eyes of most U.S. newspaper editors and network
television producers, who largely ignored one of the major stories from Iraq
this week.
"On Monday, the Iraqi Survey Group, tasked with searching for Saddam Hussein's
WMD, confirmed an artillery round containing weaponized sarin nerve gas was
detonated in an improvised explosive device (IED) aimed at U.S. troops in
Baghdad on Saturday. . . . So how did the major dailies treat this story? They
buried it."
- Columnist Linda Chavez
THAT OTHER WEDDING STORY
"The Associated Press continues to run the story that the Coalition bombed an
innocent wedding party in the middle of the desert at 3:00 in the morning last
week. To hear them tell it, the United States military came upon a wedding, and
decided that for whatever reason, we should kill everyone in attendance. Sure.
That's exactly what happened. Idiots. . . . The Bush Administration isn't going
to win on this one. The 'America bombed a wedding' story hurts Bush, while an
'American destroys a terrorist and insurgent safe house' story would help him.
Guess which one gets the ink?"
- Talk show host Neal Boortz, 5/24/04
KERRY NOT FOOLING GUN GROUP
"John Kerry owns a shotgun and a rifle, has taken time from the campaign trail
to go hunting and relied on firearms during the Vietnam War. But the Democratic
presidential candidate's fondness for his guns will not save him from a
political assault by the National Rifle Association. . . . The NRA says it
doesn't matter how many guns the Massachusetts senator owns or how often he
hunts because he nearly always votes against gun rights in the Senate. . . .
'His antifirearms record is among the very worst in American politics,' said NRA
Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre. 'It's not a stretch to say that the
worst thing that could happen to the Second Amendment is for John Kerry to be
elected president.' "
- Washington Times, 5/22/04
ANOTHER USELESS FEDERAL PROGRAM
"OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration), in fact, is pretty much a
fraud. As Cato Institute analysts point out, there is no evidence the agency in
its 34 years has had any significant effect on workplace safety."
- Columnist Jay Ambrose
IT'S THE STUPID, STUPID
"About 50% of the adults in this country are simply too damned ignorant and
stupid to be living in a free society. These are people who cannot survive
without someone else stepping forward to take care of them. . . . One thing that
occurs to me is that I am unwilling to surrender my freedoms and economic
liberty simply because these idiots can't cope. That means that they are a
danger to me."
- Talk show host Neal Boortz, 5/24/04
