Stop the Illegal Alien CA Dream Act! Tea Party activist Dawn Wildman writes: “The CA State Senate Appropriations Committee has cleared part two of Assemblyman Gil Cedillo’s CA Dream Act 2011 AB 131. It's headed to the Senate, and ultimately Jerry Brown's desk. Call these hacks and tell them to shelve Gil Cedillo’s CA Dream Act AB 131. Governor Jerry Brown’s office: (916) 322-7152 or his Press office, (916) 445-4571.”

Last week, members of Saddleback Republican Assembly registered voters at Saddleback College. They reported students’ reaction to questions about political views: “Some Saddleback students aren’t tuned in to politics, but others had plenty to say about Barack Obama, his economic policies and the direction of the country. We heard no support for him, and this was a big turnaround from six months ago at Saddleback.”

Students, parents or anyone who has visited a college bookstore lately might be reeling from sticker shock. College textbooks can cost $200 to $300 EACH. Students complain that authors frequently create new editions or design workbook-style texts to get used books off the market or prevent resale. Meanwhile at Borders, the stores have discounts of up to 70 percent off with a good selection still on the shelves at the Freeway Center. Borders began closing in July and will continue liquidating through September.

As satire goes, what else can Obama blame on George W. Bush? From an opinion piece by Chuck Green, who writes for the Aurora Sentinel. “George Bush, who doesn't have a vote in congress and who no longer occupies The White House is to blame for it all. He broke Obama's promise to put all bills on the White House web site for five days before signing them. He broke Obama's promise to have the congressional health care negotiations broadcast live on C-SPAN. He broke Obama's promise to end earmarks. He broke Obama's promise to keep unemployment from rising above 8 percent.” Green’s article can be found at http://www.usmessageboard.com/media/182141-its-all-george-bushs-fault.html
