Se Puede Get Two Years Tax-Free!
If Congress adopts the Bush plan and gives
amnesty to illegal aliens, Senate Republicans
will be asking President Cheney for a pardon.
Bush wants to grant illegal aliens amnesty while
sounding like he's really cracking down on them.
It tells you where Americans stand on illegal
immigration that Bush has to pull the Democrat
trick of hiding from the public what he really
believes when it comes to immigration

This Week's Top 10 List |

Top 10 Junk Science Scams
Listed by Steve Milloy.
10. The Mother of All Junk Science
Controversies
The most important junk science story of the
last 10 years is global warming. Though
climate varies naturally and ongoing climate
change is within that natural variation, the
global warming lobby seems bent on
railroading us into economy-killing
regulation. The Kyoto Protocol is being
ignored by its EU signatories. Global
warmers admit that the drastic and
impossible step of halting all greenhouse
gas emissions would have no impact on
climate. Sky-high energy prices threaten our
economy. Yet many yearn for global warming
regulation.
9. Choking on Chips
Swedish scientists alarmed us in April 2002
that cooking high-carbohydrate foods -- like
potatoes and bread -- formed acrylamide, a
substance linked with cancer in lab animals.
But even if lab animals were reasonable
predictors of cancer risk in humans -- a
notion yet to be validated -- someone of
average bodyweight would have to eat 35,000
potato chips (about 62.5 pounds) per day for
life to get an equivalent dose of acrylamide
as the lab animals.
8. PETA: Milk Drinking Makes for
Future Felons
With its web site repeatedly alluding to
acts of animal cruelty committed in
childhood as being predictors of adult
criminality, People for the Ethical
Treatment of Animals sponsored in-school
curricula teaching children that eating meat
and drinking milk constitutes "animal
cruelty." PETA's "Milk-Stealing Ming," for
example, was depicted with his mouth
attached to an unhappy cow's udder,
alongside a "wanted poster" describing his
crimes and exclaiming, "cows make milk for
their babies, not for maniacs like Ming."

Black Tuesday -- The Last Day of the World
As the European Union., United Nations and
United States contrive to fund the Palestinian
Authority despite declarations that they would
never aid Hamas; as the Russians rush to aid
Iran's nuclear ambitions; and as America is ever
more riven by furious disagreement over the
prosecution of the terror war, a historical
analogy is useful to put things in perspective.

Michael Steele -- Democrats' Worst Nightmare
Richmond Myrick, the principal of Largo High
School, is a registered Democrat in
overwhelmingly Democratic Prince George's County
next to Washington, D.C. He has not been active
politically and is not recorded as having made
any contributions to candidates for federal
office. Yet recently, he stood in the parking
lot of Prince George's Community College
adjoining his school to introduce Republican Lt.
Gov. Michael S. Steele, whom he has endorsed for
the U.S. Senate.

Hillary Watch: Gore vs. The Political
Whore
Columnist Jonathan Chait wrote a damning piece
on Hillary recently in the Los Angeles Times,
comparing her character (or lack thereof) to
that of Al Gore. Chait declared in the title of
his piece that "She could learn a few things
from Al Gore," and it only went downhill from
there.

20/20's John
Stossel debunks hundreds of
politically-correct myths
There are lots of things "everybody
knows" these days. "Everybody knows,"
for instance, that radiation is deadly,
especially when food is exposed to it.
"Everybody knows" that public school
teachers are underpaid, and public
schools underfunded. "Everybody knows"
that outsourcing puts Americans out of
work. The trouble is, in these and so
many other cases, what "everybody knows"
is flat wrong. Now, in Myths, Lies, and
Downright Stupidity, John Stossel
exposes the errors behind hundreds of
media-generated myths -- and reveals
that the truth is often the opposite of
what we've been taught to believe. Just
as important, he also reveals who
benefits from the deception -- whether
it's big government, greedy lawyers, or
special-interest groups looking for
political advantage at taxpayers'
expense.
