Weekend in Review

*Here's an unsurprising yet outrage-provoking story: WaPo goes deep on the health care received by detained immigrants. The story exhaustively documents subpar care given to these folks, and as I started reading through the examples cited by the story--that of one Yusif Osman, that of one Francisco Castaneda--I had an inkling of the sort of outrage this investigation would produce.

And there it is, in the first entry in the comment space:

Well if these people wouldn't sneak across their borders this wouldn't happen to them. I really can't feel sorry for any of them. The problem is that we do not deport them fast enough -- lawyers drag their cases on and on in hopes of finding an excuse to let their clients stay. We need to deport ALL of these people within 48-96 hours of detention instead of letting them stay for days, months and years as a result of lawyers contiually suing and demanding reconsideration of their cases. These lawyers do more harm than good.

This is just another WAPO story about "poor" illegal immigrants -- part of a move for asylum for these illegals. I am sorry I am not moved -- except to anger that we can't deport them faster.

Asshole.

*Washington Times goes social with this piece, including video, on the marriage of First daughter Jenna Bush and young establishmentarian Henry Hager down in Texas.

*Fishbowl has a sweet letter from Jim Lehrer.

*Politico captures this boast from Rush Limbaugh.
