Claire McCaskill is about to go on, I’ll live blog it and see how much they feed her Arizona.

As you know I’m not a drinker but I’ll break out the 21 year old scotch and take a shot every time they mention Ken Gladney or the violence by opponents of the anti-immigration law.

I will likely be cold sober…

Update: The quote the Washington Post poll on the Bank bill, no word on the Arizona polls yet, still sober.

7:46 a.m. All pro Obama Bank bill all the time so far…

7:47 a.m. Will anyone ask her if the bill has been read by anyone?

On Morning Joe today it was suggested that this will…

…create a permanent minority for the republicans.

Lets go to the polls:

Seventy-seven percent (77%) of Republicans support the law along with 62% of voters not affiliated with either major party. Democratic voters are evenly divided on the measure.

Now I don’t claim to be more than a fat man in a Fedora who isn’t working but I do know a little math. If 50% of DEMOCRATS support this law then the problem politically isn’t Republicans.

Will they mention the Rasmussen reports poll? That would be journalism.

Here is the quote of the day

Joe Scarborough to Al Sharpton as he is leaving this Morning:

We are agreeing too much these days.

Joe I like you and I like Mika and I like Willie but if that statement doesn’t give you a clue that there is a problem then nothing will.

Will the talk about the vandalism by opponents of this bill with the same strength that the tea parties got hit for things that didn’t happen? I don’t know but it’s amazing that all I’m hearing is worries about what might potentially happen because of a law, vs what opponents of that law have ACTUALLY done.

C’mon Guys! Be reporters REPORT!

Morning Joe and “undocumented immigrants”

Today Morning Joe gave a platform from somebody from Telemundo hitting Arizona’s new immigration law.

I’m not familiar enough with the law yet to make an intelligent opinion yet, but something he said stuck me.

He hit the law for making it illegal for illegal aliens or as he put it “undocumented immigrants” to get a job. He acted as if this was some great shock.

It would have been nice if someone on the Morning Joe set pointed out that it is already illegal for an employer to hire an illegal alien. Not penalizing the person soliciting the illegal act is the same as arresting the prostitute while making the John no subject to arrest, or the dealer is liable but the druggie is not.

No sign of the Insult story either, ironic since the only reason this show exists is due to “Nappy Headed Hos“
