Laura Ingraham John Eastman: Federal Law Requires Illegals to Carry Papers: Does Judge Susan Bolton Know That?

I'm awaiting the video of Laura Ingraham in for Bill O'Reilly tonight. So important is the news tonight, that she skipped the Talking Points. Her first guest was John Eastman, who is an attorney running for California Attorney General to replace AG Jerry Brown, who was voted the worst Attorney General in the U.S. by the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

Eastman, who is the director of the Center for constitutional Jurisprudence at Chapman University school of Law,  spoke on many of the points of Judge Bolton's ruling but one thing stuck out: Bolton ruled that illegal migrants do not have to carry I.D. papers. Bolton said that is "preposterously" wrong. U.S. Federal Law, in Title 8 Section 1304 clearly requires that identification be carried by all migrants at all times, according to Eastman. I'll look it up tomorrow. I'm closing up for the night.

I hope to have the video with the entire conversation with Ingraham and Eastman in the morning. John Eastman's website is here. (Thursday morning: still looking for the video)

Laura Ingraham Bill O'Reilly: Ingraham talks of Spin and Shows the KoolAid on Factor Set Video

Laura Ingraham argues with O'Reilly that Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is over FEMA, and Big Sis needs to go. See the video below.

She points out that we don't need the top musicians at the White House (Paul McCartney). We need the top engineers from all over the country. Laura has the cojones to tell Bill "this is the spin zone," and it wasn't a slip of the tongue. Then she held up the Kool-Aid. It ends with Laura saying: "I'll give you a Salazar and I'll raise you a Napolitano and a Holder."

O'Reilly was stunned, and tried to cover. He told Laura he saw the Kool-Aid delivered to her house. Lame. Really lame. Really embarrassing for Bill, because Ingraham is saying what many of us are saying about Bill O'Reilly's Factor. Thanks to The Right Scoop.

George LeMieux is Florida Senator: George LeMieux Replaces Mel Martinez

Florida politics are interesting, to say the least. Senator Mel Martinez (R-FL) announced he would be retiring early from the U.S. Senate. Governor Charlie Crist (R-FL) announced he will not run for Governor next time around; rather he wants to be Florida's next Senator.

George LeMieux
 

With Martinez' departure, Crist was forced to name a replacement for the Martinez senate seat. Who do you name to the senate seat that you want to fill just one year from now. Obviously you name someone you can trust, someone you know will not be tempted to continue attending the senate. In this case, Crist appointed attorney, best friend and former Crist Chief of Staff and 2006-Crist campaign manager, George LeMieux, who has recently been in private law practice. LeMieux resigned chairmanship of the firm of Gunster Yoakley & Stewart to take the senate seat. Here's the Florida Democrat Party official reaction:

Today, Charlie Crist decided to play political games with the public's trust by appointing George LeMiuex to the U.S. Senate. This glaring example of political cronyism is the last thing Florida needed while we face these tough economic times and the Congress is tackling critical issues such as health insurance reform and global warming.

He, he, he! Love it, love it, love it! Putting on my serious face, can Charlie Crist actually appoint a Republican to a senate seat? Yes he can. Bet you thought only Democrats can get an appointment (just kidding - it seems these days, there is no way for a Republican to win a seat - until...maybe 2010).

Democrat Governor Deval Patrick of Massachusetts just appointed Paul G. Kirk to take Ted Kennedy's seat. Kirk has never held elective office, but in the Boston-way, the Kennedy-way, he is considered "a quiet fixer," and a "trusted adviser of the Kennedy clan."

According to this story, although Kirk has never served as a public official, he is considered "comfortable working in the shadows...a savvy, adroit deal maker who has grappled with some of the most emotional rifts in Democratic party politics." Hmmmm.

It pains me to see to a seat-holder for Charlie Crist, however. The RNC is backing Crist, but as we know, Crist is no conservative. The man even attended a Florida Townhall with Obama in February to support the President's stimulus. How disgusting is that?  

Crist is seen as the "sure thing" for the Martinez seat, after Democrats had visions of putting their own into the august body when Martinez left. The vision didn't include Crist's decision to leave the Governor's office, so now Democrats are sullen. I want a Republican in the senate from the state of Florida, but I want Marco Rubio, not Charlie Crist. I'm not a Florida voter (I don't have a beach house, so can't vote as so many Florida snowbirds are said to do). I have no say, but I believe Charlie Crist has the potential to be another Arlen Specter at worst, and at best another Olympia Snow. He is milk-toast. Rubio is a strong contender, but he doesn't have the RNC behind him. It's a shame because Marco Rubio, a former Florida State House Speaker could be a great, conservative senator holding to small government and lower taxes:

A fluently bilingual 37-year-old Cuban-American evangelical from a blue-collar immigrant background with an ex-cheerleader wife, four children, a deep belief in the healing power of tax cuts, and square-jawed all-American looks, Rubio is a caricature of the ideal 21st-century Republican. With possible behind-the-scenes support from Jeb Bush, Rubio is planning a scorched-earth campaign against Crist as a firebrand conservative standing against the forces of big-government RINOism.

My bet is that Jeb Bush will not support Rubio - just a guess, but the very conservative senate hero, Senator Jim DeMint, IS already endorsing Rubio. The danger, of course, is that Florida splits the vote and sends a Democrat to Washington, D.C. This coming race causes me a lot of angst. I don't like RINO's. I don't want a RINO in the Senate. I hope Floridians vote their values and their principles and try to send Marco Rubio to the Capitol. If the Democrat contender wins, so be it. There are far worse things than trying to do the right thing.

The video below is Mr. Rubio speaking with Laura Ingraham just a few days ago.
