Cinco de Mayo is a phony tradition, a joke on los gringos, then exploited as a marketing gimmick by Mexican restaurant chains.

Nobody in Mexico cares about May 5th. Only we, us gringos, pretend to.

A wonderful, unexpected evening

On Monday my husband tells me that on Tuesday evening we're going to see former congressman Allen West in West Los Angeles (who, on January 3, 2011, took office as the first black Republican Congressman from Florida since Josiah T. Walls left office in 1876 and who recently signed on to Fox News as a contributor).

It was a really nice event with great food and lots of very patriotic people. Fun sitting next to vegan Tegra Little of the Faithful Central Bible Church, too...and many thanks to Mark Reed for the invitation! (And thank you, Veronica: keeper of the tab :-)

American Freedom Alliance
Heroes of Conscience Awards
Tuesday, May 21, 2013

The American Freedom Alliance is a group opposed to the continual and deliberate degradation of the rights afforded to the American people through the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights, the erosion of civil liberties for the American people, and the ever-growing power of the Federal Government in destroying American sovereignty and ignoring the basic rights of all Americans.

We do not necessarily support taking up arms but we do support the Second Amendment.

AFA believes that the law governing the American people is the U.S. Constitution and no government has the right to amend, erode, or eradicate those rights without the express permission of the majority of the American people. The current actions of the Federal Government in suspending habeus corpus and nullifying the Posse Comitatus Act, as well as the establishment of FEMA camps within the continental United States, is a direct threat to the American people and to American sovereignty, and we will not tolerate it.

How convenient--just when Obama's cozying up to Muslims

WASHINGTON (AP) - The government accidentally posted on the Internet a list of all civilian nuclear sites and their activities in the United States.

The 266-page document was published on May 6 as a transmission from President Barack Obama to the U.S. Congress. According to the document, the list was required by law and will be provided to the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Some of the pages are marked "highly confidential safeguards sensitive."

While there is security at the facilities, the list could presumably be useful for terrorists or anyone else who would like to harm the United States.
