Addendum

While on the subject of Secretary Napolitano, I should have mentioned the she needs to bone up on the law. Earlier this week she was interviewed by CNN"s John King, and while discussing law enforcement issues regarding the Mexican border, she said "...when we find illegal workers, yes, appropriate action, some of which is criminal, most of that is civil, because crossing the border is not criminal per se. It is civil. But anyway, going after those as well."

Here is the law: Title 8, Section 1325 of the U.S. Code states, “Any alien who enters or attempts to enter the United States at any time or place other than as designated by immigration officers . . . shall, for the first commission of any such offense, be fined under title 18 or imprisoned not more than 6 months, or both.”

First offense is a misdemeanor, any subsequent charges are felonies.

Oh.....and GO CAVS!
