The Real Story: The Republic of San Francisco
Updated
April 24, 2007
 
You may best know Gavin Newsom as the mayor of San Francisco who was overruled by the California Supreme Court on same-sex marriages...you may know him as the mayor who signed into law the first-ever city ban on plastic bags; or, you may just know him as the guy who slept with his best friend's wife and then said he was an alcoholic.  Although, we should cut him some slack, at least it wasn't some stranger's wife...that'd really be over the line.

But not me, I only know him for one thing and it happened just this past Sunday...



"I will not allow any of my department heads or anyone associated with this city to cooperate in any way shape or form with these raids," Newsom declared. "We are a sanctuary city, make no mistake about it."

I have been telling you for months now that illegal immigration is creating a new civil war in this country.  It's pitting neighbor against neighbor and city against city, but -- until now -- a city has never openly challenged its own federal government and said "we will not cooperate with you."  San Francisco, you should be ashamed.

You want to openly defy federal law and shelter illegals?  Great.  You want to ban the military from recruiting in your schools.  No problem, freak people.  You want to ban guns and plastic bags.  Whatever floats your boat.  But the Real Story tonight is that as long as San Francisco continues to act like they're an independent country then we should treat them like one.

If I were President, then San Francisco would be begging for a new Lee Harvey Oswald because I'd say "Read My Lips: no more federal funding for you."  We sent you over $7.6 billion dollars a couple of years ago and I'd cut every blue cent of it.  If you want to make us pay for your rogue immigration policy, then you're getting no more money for roads, or education, no more postal service, federal courts, coast guard, FBI or FAA -- and I'll personally uproot all the Redwood trees from OUR national park and move them to Utah.

You don't like our immigration policy San Francisco?  Great -- send your playboy mayor to Congress and let him lobby for change.  You don't like the way the war is going?  Well congratulations, we have a representative government and your Congresswoman happens to be Speaker of the House...tell her to pull our troops out. 

If you don't like this country's laws then either work to change them or take a vote and secede from the union.  Really, no hard feelings either way...I'm more than happy to still visit Alcatraz even when it's owned by Venezuela.
