The family and I just got back from a GLORIOUS 7 day vacation in Washington State: Hurricane Ridge to view the Olympic Range, a day at the Pacific Ocean, a day at Mt. Rainier and 3 days in Seattle, not to mention a nostalgic stop for my wife at her hometown of Sumner. The mountains are truly a religious experience, literally!

Lots of big news while I was gone: we learned the whole story behind the Sherrod comments, Milwaukee is flooded, and most recently, the AZ immigration law has its heart torn out and the Disclose Act likely will not be enacted for the fall elections.

Sherrod: 1) Breitbart is wrong for trying to pretend he didn't screw up  big here, he did. 2) How long was Sherrod a racist before she "saw the light?" 3) She tells AC that she thinks Breitbart wants a return to slavery??? Where does THAT come from?

The Disclose Act, a huge victory! AZ law? Supporters claim there's still some teeth left; I don't see many. Let's see what happens on appeal.
