Only 41% Approve Of Obama’s Handling of Immigration

A Quinnipiac poll released Thursday delivers plenty of bad news for President Obama and his second term agenda. On every important national issue, the president finds himself upside down. This includes his overall approval rating, 44% – 48%; foreign policy, 40% – 52%; the economy, 41% – 55%. The president is also dramatically upside down on immigration, 41% – 50%. It seems odd that the president would find himself in this position on the immigration issue just days after the Senate passed the comprehensive immigration reform he asked for. You would think that would be seen as a win for… View Article

The opinion comes in a case against the Swiss Bed and Breakfast in Cookham, Berkshire. The owner, Susanne Wilkinson, was ordered earlier to pay a homosexual duo, Michael Black and John Morgan, about $6,000 in damages for denying them permission to use a bedroom.

Canada’s’ Red Tories – Parliamentary Privilege

Last week’s Conservative party convention in Calgary was cancelled due to the floods in Alberta. Alas, a potential dustup which could affect the entire Tory brand remains in play. There was going to be a convention proposal to change the voting process for future leadership races back to one member, one vote. When the Canadian Alliance and Progressive Conservatives merged in December 2003, that particular system was replaced with one giving each riding 100 votes, regardless of the number of local memberships, which benefited Quebec and Atlantic Canada. Peter MacKay, the last federal PC leader who pushed heavily for this… View Article
