Living in California, it has not been so easy to watch my Senators work on legislation that I oppose. However, yesterday Diane Feinstein took a position to support the 2 border agents who have been sent to prison for shooting a drug dealer (not fatally) who was crossing the border illegally.
Although she was dead wrong on the illegal immigration debate (in my opinion), I am proud of her standing up for Ramos and Compean. So where were my Republican buddies on this issue? And what about President Bush?
As a side note, Senator Feinstein is trying to bring some sanity to the discussion that people should be able to reasonably clear land in Tahoe of dead trees. This is something the Sierra Club has opposed for years and led to problems containing last months' fire.
You go, girl!
