Get your Steyn here!
A Lame Joke Becomes Reality - 6/11/07
"Talk about 'a fast track to citizenship'! Never mind probationary visas, Z-visas and Green Cards, in the eyes of the Democrat steering "comprehensive immigration reform" through Congress these guys are already 'undocumented Americans.'"
The Incessant Action Hero - 6/18/07
"At one level, Bloomberg and Schwarzenegger have a point. Why wait for national or international action when a mayor or governor can just get on with it? But the assumptions underpinning Time's paean to the new action heroes all operate in one direction — in increased government regulation and restraint on individual judgment." Check out the second to last paragraph.
We've Replaced Rushdie In Hiding - 6/25/07
"And, for a guy dismissed by most of us as crazy, Khomeini made a lot of sense. The Rushdie fatwa established the ground rules: The side that means it gets away with it. Mobs marched through Britain calling for the murder of a British subject — and, as a matter of policy on the grounds of multicultural sensitivity, the British police shrugged and looked the other way."
Impudent Citizens Got Sen. Lotthorn's Goat - 7/2/07
"But what an awesome monument to the senator's reign it would be: Hadrian's Wall, the Great Wall of China, the Great Electrified Goat Fence of the Rio Grande."
The Jobs Britons Won't Do - 7/9/07
"When the president talks about needing immigrants to do 'the jobs Americans won't do,' most of us assume he means seasonal fruit pickers and the maid who turns down your hotel bed and leaves the little chocolate on it. But in the United Kingdom the jobs Britons won't do has somehow come to encompass the medical profession." Great column on immigration and health care.
Look Who's Holding Hostages Again - 7/23/07
"How do you feel about the American hostages in Iran? No, not the guys back in the Seventies, the ones being held right now. What? You haven't heard about them?" Read it and weep.
