Location: United States

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Anti-PC Leadership

From Stan White at Free Constitution

The "toughest sheriff in America" continues to fight the Reconquista. With his no-nonsense and unorthodox methods, Sheriff Joe Arpaio fights Reconquista ignorance in plain English...

Here are some excerpts from this AP story :
"They are in the United States, and they should start speaking English," said Arpaio, who is known for making inmates wear pink underwear and take part in old-style chain gangs in striped uniforms...

The aim is to teach the non-English speakers about America's three branches of government, the criminal justice system and communicating their health and safety needs to jail officers, Arpaio said.

He also wants to teach them to sing "God Bless America," a song that the sheriff had ordered to be played each morning in his jails.

Among Arizona's police officials, Arpaio has taken the most aggressive stance in enforcing the state's 14-month-old immigrant smuggling law, arresting more than 300 illegal immigrants so far.

Immigrant groups said the law was intended only for immigrants smugglers and that Arpaio has overreached by charging the people who pay to be sneaked across the border. Arpaio has rejected calls to stop enforcing the law.
Too bad he's not seeking re-election. We desperately need more LEOs like this guy. Maybe he'll run for governor.
