Thomas Parkin impersonated his dead mother to receive government benefitsThis guy received tens of thousands in government benefits using his dead mother’s identity, then had the nerve to accuse an adversary in a property dispute—in which he was impersonating his mother– of fraud:

A Reminder for Ms. Sotomayor… and the Rest of Us

“Today, when a concerted effort is made to obliterate this point, it cannot be repeated too often that the Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals – that it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government – that it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen’s protection against the government.” – Ayn Rand

Money Sent Back to Mexico Falls by 18%

Next month, Mexico applies for bailout money…. (Just joking… I think.)

April remittances fell to $1.78 billion from $2.19 billion, according to the bank. It said the U.S. recession has hurt migrants in the United States, while fewer Mexicans are heading north because of a lack of jobs and a crackdown on illegal immigration.

He just wants to be loved…
