quote:

The city council in Lansing, Mich. voted Wednesday to rescind its decision to deem itself a "sanctuary" city for illegal immigrants after concerns from the businesses that the status would draw unwelcome attention to the city. 



quote:

The term "sanctuary city" generally refers to jurisdictions that do not cooperate with U.S. immigration officials. Under Lansing city policy, police don't ask for people's immigration status, except as required by U.S. or Michigan law or a court order



quote:

That was already the policy in Lansing before last week's vote, but Lansing called itself a "welcoming city," rather than a "sanctuary city." Neither the welcoming city resolution nor the sanctuary city resolution called for Lansing to prohibit workers from providing information on a person's immigration status with U.S. immigration officials — a ban that's at the heart of some urban sanctuary cities disagreements with the Trump administration.



You can put a prom dress and lipstick on a pig but it's still gonna oink at you.

More liberal wordsmithing to push their policies? Sounds about right.

You can not change the inside by changing the outside.

So sanctuary city. Did they really think that if they changed their the name that some how Sessions was going to be bamboozled?

Global warming... I mean climate change.
Sanctuary city... I mean welcoming city.

You can't just change the name and keep doing it when the policy has been proven to be a bad idea.

Virgil Bernero, Lansing Mayor, has been on Tucker Carlson shows a couple time recently on this issue and is a complete embarrassment.

He argued he wouldn't deport an illegal immigrant even if they were arrested for a DUI as long as they didn't hit anyone. Bernero is a moron.

It's not global warming, you guys; it's climate change.

"Patriot Act"

"Weapons of Mass Destruction" are now "Mass murder weapons" to MacCuckster

So both sides do it

The mental gymnastics they go through to justify things in their mind cracks me up.
