Gail Collins positions are certainly what has caused the leap in subscribers to the NYT. They are making money hand over fist. A model for successful economic policies. The support in the populace for her positions are tremendous. Everyone agrees that cities should protect illegal aliens.

It has gone from the “Old Gray Lady” to the “Pathetic Pink Skank”

I use to just smile and nod when people would say that liberalism is a mental disorder. Having some training in such matters, I should have known better. I now believe that one can be mentally disturbed and still function, sometimes very well, as to areas that do not pertain to the defective area of your life. Collins can obviously write at a high professional level, but she shares a distinction with Harry Stack Sullivan. Sullivan was hospitalized many times for his mental illness, but he still developed the “psychological (or therapeutic) interview. At times Sullivan was so crazy he had to be locked up, but he could function somehow as a psychologist. Collins is a sick woman. The fact that she appears on the pages of the NYT changes nothing, she’s still disturbed as are most devoted liberals.

Not possessing a brain is a requirement for employment at the NYT.

Remember all those sci-fi movies where the heroes were stuck in a terrible world where everybody but them was a mutant or a pod person or a hologram and their only hope was to reach a legendary and possibly mythical refuge? Next time you hear a politician ranting about a “sanctuary city,” say: “Wasn’t that where Keanu Reeves was trying to get in “The Matrix?”

Try Logan's Run. But there was no sanctuary. There was only a robot waiting to kill them.

If this twit’s NYC apartment building is being cleaned by illegal aliens...a sure bet...then she is employing illegal aliens, too.
New York libs like having slave labor because they can hire work that is beneath them. They are too good for mundane chores, having to save the world, doncha know.

If you’ve got hundreds of thousands of undocumented people living in your town, you want them to be willing to report crimes

Yep....and they can start with themselves.

Iowa? Iowa gave us Tom Harkin, one of the most leftist members of the U.S. Senate. It also has a Democrat governor (Culver) who succeeded a Democrat governor (Vilsack)... what is her problem ?? We can’t ALL live on the Upper West Side.

Here are some examples of a sanctuary city.

By the way, doesn’t the term “sanctuary city” sound sort of nice, actually? Remember all those sci-fi movies where the heroes were stuck in a terrible world where everybody but them was a mutant or a pod person ...

Collins is an idiot!

Current federal law 8USC 1373(a) PROHIBITS SANCTUARY CITIES. It reads as follows:

"Notwithstanding any other provision of federal, state, or local law, a federal, state, or local government entity or official may not prohibit, or in any way restrict any government entity or official from sending to, or receiving from, the Immigration and Naturalization Service information regarding the citizenship or immigration status, lawful or unlawful, of any individual."

But I guess it's only a law if El Presidente tells the AG to enforce it. And we know how HE feels.
